Florida Gators and Clemson battling for Robinson in 2017

The Florida Gators coaching staff is finally getting to a level playing field in recruiting in the class of 2017, as they have had time to build relationships with many of these prospects.

2017 receiver James Robinson (6-3, 185, Lakeland, FL High) is one of those prospects that the Florida Gators are after hard in 2017, but another school has taken the early lead.

“Clemson, Florida, USC, Alabama and Ohio State are coming at me,” Robinson said. “Right now Clemson leads for me. It’s the relationship with the coaches right now, me and Coach [Jeff] Scott have a good bond.
