DIXON, PHIL

6-5 F-G (UTAH 1990-94)

        The Jamaican-born Dixon averaged 40 points, 15 rebounds and 12 assists while being named player of year all four years he was at Bathurst Heights HS in Toronto. He scored a career high 61 against Riverside Church of New York. A member of Canadian national team.

        Dixon initially signed a letter of intent with the University of Connecticut and was attending a six-week summer program when he had his scholarship pulled for a “violation of policy.” Coach Jim Calhoun said “it’s not drugs, not athletics, not academics. It’s behavioural, very simply.” Dixon was sent packing by school officials halfway into a six-week summer program, which he needed to complete the program in order to qualify for admission to the university. Athletic director Todd Turner said Dixon was released because he was not fulfilling his responsibilities as a university student, but declined to be specific. “It’s really unusual and it’s unfortunate,” said Turner, of Dixon’s quick exit from the university. “But there are certain responsibilities students have to assume. It was not an academic thing, it had nothing to do with any kind of drug issue. I think it was just Phil had difficulties adjusting to the environment.” The Hartford Courant reported yesterday Dixon was kicked out because of four incidents that occurred at the university dorm in Storrs, Conn. The Courant quoted unidentified sources as saying Dixon’s problems related to confrontations with students in the same program. Dixon was not charged with anything. “That’s all a crock,” Dixon said. “No way. That’s all a bunch of garbage.” Dixon, 20, said his problems stemmed from a “misunderstanding” regarding a legal problem when he was younger.

Calhoun told The Courant: “Phil violated the conduct code of the program he was involved with. His conduct was unacceptable. He did not do what we wanted him to do as a basketball player.”

Five years earlier, Dixon had been convicted of sexual assault but won a new trial under appeal. His case was due to be heard in the fall. A 15-year-old girl complained she’d been forced to have sex with three black teens in September-1985. Dixon was tried by jury and convicted. During his testimony, he admitted he’d been in the house but said he wasn’t involved with the girl. While in prison, Bathurst Heights coach Bob Maydo and co-coach Jean Hooper approached Toronto lawyer Alan Gold with a plea for help. Gold got Dixon released on bail in 1987, pending his appeal. He played basketball at Bathurst Heights and lived with Maydo while on appeal. Dixon won the appeal in 1989, earned a retrial in February-1990, at which he was acquitted. In the interim, he lost the Connecticut scholarship and was approached by Utah’s Rick Majerus.

        As a freshman in 1990, Dixon started 1 of 6 for an average 22.8 mpg before lacerating a nerve in his calf muscle by putting his leg through a window on December 14, 1989. He hit 21-42 (.500) from the floor, 9-18 from the arc, and 10-13 (.769) from the line, while garnering 25 boards, including 10 on the offensive glass and a 4.2 rpg, 11 fouls, 11 assists, 10 turnovers, 1 steal and 61 points, including a game-high 21, for a 10.2 ppg. Dixon received a medical redshirt. The Utes, coached for 24 games by Joe Craven and 6 by Rick Majerus, finished 16-14 overall and 7-9 (7^th) in WAC play.

The Utes, coached by Rick Majerus, finished 30-4 overall, winning the WAC regular season title with a 15-1 record after being picked to finish 6^th. They defeated South Alabama 82-72 and Michigan State 85-84 before losing 83-66 to U.N.L.V. in the NCAA Sweet Sixteen.

        As a sophomore in 1992, Dixon started all 35 games for an average 23.5 mpg. He hit 117-295 (.397) from the floor, 68-167 (.407) from the arc and 26-31 (.839) from the line, while garnering 134 boards, including 40 on the offensive glass and a 3.8 rpg, 68 fouls (fouling out twice), 71 assists, 66 turnovers, 3 blocks, 23 steals and 328 points, for a 9.4 ppg.

Dixon finished 26th in the national in three-point FG% at .460 and scored in double figures 15 times, including a career high 28 against Brigham Young and the game winner against BYU at Provo to seal the co-championship. Dixon led the WAC in three-point field goal percentage at .458. The Utes, coached by Rick Majerus, finished 24-7 overall and 15-3 (tied 1st) in the WAC. They defeated Pittsburgh 86-65 in the NCAA western regional before losing 83-62 in the second round to Kentucky. Expected to lead the Utes in his senior year. “Obviously, we’ll rely heavily on Phil,” said Majerus. “He gives us defence and scoring. He was the best defender on the team last year. He can really contain and stop opposing small forwards. We’ll need him to be more of a leader this year because we don’t have that many experienced players. If we’re to do anything this year, Phil will lead the way.”

        As a senior in 1994, Dixon suffered a “career-ending” injury. He started 2 of the 4 games he played, for an average 18.0 mpg. He hit 9-20 (.450) from the floor, 3-6 from the arc and 3-4 from the line, while garnering 13 boards, including 4 on the offensive glass and a 3.3 rpg, 4 fouls, 6 assists, 3 turnovers, 1 block, 3 steals and 24 points, for a 6.0 ppg.
