Dramatic "school reveal" via Twitter

Dixon, who is regarded as one of the top junior college DBs in the nation and a four-star prospect per Rivals.com, selected the Crimson Tide over the likes of Florida State and Mississippi State.

Dixon revealed his “college of choice” in a special announcement via Twitter.

Since Dixon was a junior college performer, he was permitted to sign his letter of intent today.

The 6-foot-2, 200-pound signee is expected to play a pivotal role on the Crimson Tide defense in 2012.
