Re: Jovon Robinson Leads NJCAA in Rushing
Will also add this: What really sealed the deal here with the Robinson offer was performance in the JUCO NC game against Scooba Tech. That defense came into the game allowing fewer than 70 rushing yards per game, and the front seven had a handful of legitimate future NFL prospects -- including both Pettway and Reed, who signed with 'Bama this past year -- and Robinson went out against them and had 34 carries for 238 yards, and 3 touchdowns.
I think the staff was largely convinced by that point anyway, but once they broke down that film a few weeks back, I think that sealed the deal on Robinson's talent and his ability to have an instant impact in Tuscaloosa.
