BATON ROUGE, La. -- Line LSU's scholarship receivers up by height and Derrick Dillon will not stand out. In fact, he would be at the end of the line.
The 5-foot-11 redshirt freshman is the shortest member of the group, so he looks like a shrub among the trees -- particularly if he’s standing near 6-6 Stephen Sullivan or 6-5 Jazz Ferguson and Dee Anderson.
But Dillon’s role is different than that of the rangy wideouts who dot the LSU roster and generally line up at the outside receiver positions.
