Yeah - although it may take him several months to get fit again - seems to be hurting going on the field and worse coming off. Glad to have him around next season - hopefully as part of a multi-prong running attack and not the sole workhorse.Originally Posted by Dawg Fan
From the post-game presser transcript:
Q. After the game, the fans thanking them, I'm sure a lot of them want to know if you're going to be back for your senior year?
KENNETH DIXON: Yes, sir, I will. Just going through the journey, thankful for having the chance to play the game of college football. And I don't want to give it up right now, with Coach Holtz being a great example for us on and off the field. You know, some of the great guys like X coming back, he's great, you know, and we actually look up to some of those guys. And I really don't believe ‑‑ I really believe I will be back to Louisiana Tech.

That makes me happy. I sure would like to see him have a healthy final season. I bet it would be something to remember.

Good old Memorial Gym
Good to know that every positive thing he does for us next year will add to the records he already holds. We will likely be watching a young man set Tech records that will never be broken.
He is like rooting for my own kid on the field. My wife feels the same way! I'm so proud of him and grateful he will be back to finish what he started 3 years ago! !
Awesome news. Heal up KD, you have earned it!
Well stated. It seems like Dixon has been at Tech so long, he really does feel like family.
He is family as he is part of "The TECH Family"! So glad he's going to be rocking our house/the Joe again next year.Well stated. It seems like Dixon has been at Tech so long, he really does feel like family.
i can safely admit i was 100% wrong about k-dix. good to see him back.
I just hope he psts an outstanding GPA in the Spring & Winter quarters. Also hope he has an outsatnding 2015 season that puts all career rushung records out of reach. Last thing I want to see is a Marcus Lattimore situation. He no doubt will end up playing on Sundays.
One down (Dixon), two to go. If I was to bet on the other two, I'd bet Holtz will be at Tech next year. Money talks, but it can't buy happiness. I'm thinking Diaz will be offered big bucks by somebody, and, based on the nature of the business, will probably take it. But perhaps I'll be proven wrong (I hope I am). I'm sure Tech will do what it can to keep him, but it might not be enough. I just hope that whatever happens, happens sooner rather than later.
Everyone here seems to think that. I'm not so sure about it, however. I hope I'm wrong.
what is status of replacement of coach that has already left. Some talk earlier about possible announcement before bowl game.
Creer, Livas, and Porter weren't able to make it in the NFL. Assuming Dixon is able to get and stay healthy, I think another year in college will help his draft stock. I don't think Dixon would make it strictly as a rushing running back. However, throw in his receiving skills, and I think he will likely make it. He gets blown up a lot. He has a lot of TFLs against him. He has to have at least a little bit of space to work with. Couple him with a good OL and he will be off to the races.
He has to stop fumbling the football if he wants to be in the No Fun League .
