OL target Landon Dickerson trending with four favorites now

It was a three way race for offensive lineman Landon Dickerson of Hudson, N.C., before he visited Auburn on Saturday. Now, there are four teams at the top of his list with the Tigers joining South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia Tech as his favorites in no order.

“The overall feel of it, it kind of reminded me of my hometown,” Dickerson said of Auburn. “Coach Malzahn and Coach Lashley made it feel like I was the only guy there (there was a seven-on-seven camp going on). I sat down with Coach Malzahn three different times.”

Dickerson attended USC's recent Showcase camp and got another good look at the Gamecocks and the program.

“It was good to go back down and get around campus, kind of explore and see what I hadn’t seen before,” Dickerson said. “Coach Elliott is looking for me to be a versatile player and plug me in wherever he needs me. He’s my kind of coach.”

Dickerson said his next visit will be to Florida State in July. And don’t look for a decision from him any time soon.

“I’m not looking to rush into a commitment,” he said. “I’m going to be open for a long time and take a few official visits.”

Dickerson said he talked with USC last week.
