Is four-star DE looking around

Lufkin, Texas defensive end McKinner Dixon made a decision to commit to Texas Tech during October. Now, two months later, is the four-star rated prospect still solid with his choice to join Mike Leach's football team?
"I am still pretty much set," the 6-foot-3, 240-pound Dixon said. "I may visit somewhere. That doesn't mean much, though. I'm committed to Texas Tech, unless I see something that I haven't seen before that makes me think there is a better place. I really don't think anything will change my mind."

Two schools are on Dixon's list as potential visit destinations.
"I might visit Arkansas or LSU," he said. "Those are two schools that I really like. I could see myself taking a trip to either of those schools. They are both good programs that play the style of defenses I like."
Dixon and his teammates ended their 2004 season last week with a loss in the state semi-finals.
"We lost last week," he said. "We finished 14-1, which is a good season, but it always is tough to end it. I broke the sack record and the tackle for losses record at the school, which is something I will have for a while."
Dixon had the chance to host the Texas Tech coaches at his home two weeks ago.
"We had the coaches from Texas Tech come by two week ago. That's the only coaches that have come by the house. We had a good talk that night."
