Texas Forever. Thank you, 5ud83eudd18 <a href="https://t.co/eyPt452GXn">pic.twitter.com/eyPt452GXn</a>

Robinson is projected to be the top running back in the 2023 class, topping Alabama's Jahmyr Gibbs and Michigan's Blake Corum. That has been the sentiment since he joined the Longhorns as a freshman in 2020.

He checks in as the No. 4 overall player and top running back on B/R NFL Scouting Department's big board.

The 20-year-old rushed for 703 yards and four touchdowns in nine games as a freshman, in addition to catching 15 passes for 196 yards and two scores.
