the most over the last two years and moving forward is Dixon nevert having a fallback option when Adams declared for the draft.
For a coach that usually is pretty methodical in everything he does, that particular situation IMO was the biggest hindrance to the program's continuity.
Since he was caught off guard by Adams, which still surprises the hell out of me because Dixon always seems prepared for anything, the center position has been a black hole.
Out of all the criticisms of Dixon, warranted or unwarranted, this could very well be the biggest mistake of his coaching tenure.
