Michael Dickson Declares For NFL Draft

[Daniel Seahorn]

While uncommon for specialist to do so, nobody should question Dickson making the jump now. He has nothing left to prove at the college level.

Also for those fretting about Dickson not mentioning Herman previously in a speech he mentions him in his farewell piece.

Dickson had nothing left to prove. This was a no-brainer for him. Best of luck to him. Can't wait to see him crush it in the league. 

 

[Jameson McCausland]

Good for Michael. The NFL values guys who can flip the field like him. Props to Herman and the staff for getting a scholarship punter on campus as his replacement. 

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

Good luck to the young man. Someone is getting a game changer on special teams.

 

[Aaron Carrara]

Apparently he will still play in the Texas Bowl, which is good news.

 

[JMagana]

Congratulations to the young man.

 

[Harrison Wier]

John Bianco has confirmed that Dickson will play in the Texas Bowl. Big news.

The writing was on the wall with the aussie signing yesterday.  Good luck to him, will miss our best offensive weapon....well weapon anyways.  He probably had more yardage than the offense.

You have been the guardian of name recognition, especially for great punters

 

[TexExSpur]

Good for him!  He's going to make a lot of money for a long time!

A guy that can average almost 50 yds per punt is almost unheard of....but a guy that can average almost 50 yds per punt while dropping punt after punt inside the TEN yd line is certainly undreamed of.

Like Ray Guy....He mignt be a early round pick.

Michael Dickson did an amazing job for the Longhorns.  He was very consistent.  I was not worried when he was punting of the shanks, I was more excited to see how deep he was going to pin the opposing team and how close to the end zone.  I am sure other teams are happy to see him go..  He is truly a weapon on Special Teams.....    He should be known as "THE PUNTER".

Big mistake. Michael needs another year in college to work on his height.

Dude was a class act and exemplified the importance of special teams each time he hit the field. He'll be missed but it will awesome to see him pinning teams behind the 20 on the biggest stage in football.
