One of our top-100 prospects in the class of 2027, Robinson showed a lot of promise in his freshman tape. Vic Castillo Vic Castillo RB PA ‘s write up on him last month is a very good read. Here’s what Vic had to say;“Unsure what on tape is varsity reps, what is JV reps, I think there’s a good mix of each. First glance in person, second glance on tape, Robinson’s build screams DB. Thin frame, ideally between 5’9-5’11. His tape backs that notion up of course, he is stationed often at slot corner, he flashes ability to cover Curl zones behind him, he can cover wideouts and backs alike. When McKeesport deploys single-high sets you can often find Robinson in the box or covering the slot, depending on the offensive formation. Intriguing part is when he’s aligned at linebacker pre-snap. Robinson doesn’t carry a traditional backer build, yet the kid makes a good amount of solo stops inside the front seven. Brings his weight, not much weight, but he can carry his own. Has some wideout reps on tape which makes sense, involved in the screen/pop/bubble game. Substantial special teams reps witnessed. On hit squad, might serve as a gunner. Can he return kicks or play back, answering this would bode well for his future stock. Tape is too long, and needs to be condense to best plays.”

is attempting to earn that claim some day. At 5-foot-10 and 150-pounds, Robinson looks like he could be on his way to making a big splash on the high school level at the Running Back position. He possesses very good change of direction ability and pretty good feet. Not a burner at this point but certainly fast enough to win most foot races to the end zone. In my opinion, he can run a little too tall at times and allows defenders to throw unnecessary shots at him but out of the other side of my mouth, throws an absolutely nasty stiff arm. There’s some fine-tuning to do, but Robinson can absolutely tote the rock. Look for him to do some damage in the WPIAL (Wester Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic League) over the next four years.
