Notable: Dixon was named 4A All-State on defense and his region’s athlete of the year. On defense as as senior, he tallied 34 tackles (1 for loss) with an interception, and on offense, he averaged 21 yards per catch with eight touchdowns receiving, totaling 752 all-purpose yards and 14 total touchdowns, according to MaxPreps. He was also on the Academic All-State team. Dixon is a unanimous 4-star prospect. Dixon’s other FBS offers included Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Michigan, Oklahoma, Notre Dame, Ole Miss and Texas A&M.

Quotable: "Noah is a very mature, educated young man who really does not take the recruiting process lightly. So, he’s a guy that will process information, will study information and try to make the best decision for he and his family. It just seemed like from the get-go that Clemson was a really good fit for him. The family-oriented culture is something that he was really searching for. It just seemed like a really good fit between the two parties.” - His high school coach Thomas Glisson said of Dixon’s fit with Clemson.
