summary:(scout.com)
Dixon is a football recruit as a wide receiver and running back. Scout.com's
SuperPrep.com profiled Dixon as a baseball player back in May. Dixon will have
to turn down a scholarship to play football for Mississippi State to play
baseball. Another athletic player for the A's if he signs.

SCOUTING REPORT: Lefthander T.J. House (No. 4 above) is acknowledged as the top
high school prospect in Mississippi, but Dixon could easily be the first player
drafted of the two—particularly if a club is willing to buy him away from a
football scholarship to Mississippi State. House’s high price tag may scare
teams off, but Dixon has made a significant surge as a prospect this spring to
make a case for himself as a legitimate prospect in the top three or four
rounds, possibly even in the top two as his name was flying around scouting
circles in the weeks leading up to the draft. Some scouts saw him as a better
athlete with better speed than Alabama prep shortstop Destin Hood, an Alabama
football recruit who has been mentioned prominently in the sandwich round.
Dixon has three solid tools—speed, power to all fields and arm strength—in a
powerful, athletic frame. He still remains relatively raw, but has made huge
strides in all phases of his game. He can put a charge in a fastball, though
lacks plate discipline. He has a tendency to be overly aggressive, is prone to
chasing pitches out of the strike zone and often has great difficulty
recognizing breaking balls. He put up big offensive numbers this spring for
Terry High, hitting a state-best 13 home runs (along with 23 stolen bases), but
there are questions whether he’ll ever hit high-level pitching, especially
with wood. Dixon made significant progress as a catcher, but needs work in
refining his shifting and blocking skills. He is so athletic, though, that he
could probably make a seamless transition to the outfield—a likely scenario if
a team wants to take full advantage of his speed. Dixon committed to play wide
receiver at Mississippi State, where his older brother Anthony rushed for more
than 1,000 yards in 2007 as a sophomore running back. But he’s the kind of
high-risk, high-reward talent that a team might decide to take a run at buying
him away from college.—ALLAN SIMPSON
