4-star Branson Robinson, top running back prospect from Mississippi, updates his recruitment
The top running back prospect from the state of Mississippi is getting closer to making his decision as Branson Robinson has just announced his updated top five.
While the 5-foot-10, 220-pound Robinson holds scholarship offers from nearly every elite program from the Southeast, the Madison, Miss., native is down to Alabama, Georgia, LSU, Tennessee and Clemson.
The Germantown High School standout is rated as a four-star prospect, the No. 7 running back in the country and the No. 2 overall prospect from Mississippi in the 2022 recruiting cycle according to 247Sports Composite Rankings.
Last season, Robinson averaged over nine yards per carry despite the fact he had 121 rushes for Germantown. He finished the season with 1,179 yards and 15 touchdowns in just eight games of action.
Take a look at his junior season highlight reel to get an idea of how dangerous Robinson is with the ball in his hands.
The kid is a “Beast”, not sure why he’s not rated higher.
What the hell are MSU and (more so) Ole Miss doing?
Air Raid and Lane Train are more about throwing…. doubt they’ll recruit any running back above a 2-3 star due to the fact a 4-5 isn’t going to play at a program just to block and catch a few wheel routes.
Ole Miss had a very balanced attack and led the SEC in rushing yards per game last year.
Same thing for over 100 years…battling bigger programs all around the state.
He could play as freshman at TN but he will have to wait his turn at the others.
