Alabama football’s four-star linebacker commit, Sterling Dixon shared his reaction to Alabama hiring Kevin Steele as its defensive coordinator with Touchdown Alabama.
Dixon is one of the Crimson Tide’s two 2024 defensive commits. The Mobile product is familiar with Steele, and he feels this is a good hire for the Crimson Tide.
“I built a strong relationship with him while he was at Auburn my freshman year,” Dixon said. “I love the hire. He was definitely the right man for the job. My trainer Deshaun Davis told me a bunch of stories about him, and he told me if I ever got to play for him, I would love him.”
Dixon is coming off a strong junior campaign. He finished the 2022 football season with more than 170 tackles and was named the class 3A lineman of the year by the Alabama Sports Writer Association.
