Three-star defensive tackle Devon Robinson has committed to Mississippi State.
Robinson, from Whitehaven High School in Memphis, announced his decision late Friday evening on Twitter.
“ … after talking with my family and coaches I want to officially announce that I am now Committed to… Mississippi State University!! #HailState #STATETEAM18,” Robinson wrote.
Robinson (6 feet 6, 260 pounds) also gave high consideration to Memphis, located in his hometown, before picking the Bulldogs. In his Twitter announcement, he specifically mentioned Tigers defensive line coach Paul Randolph, offensive line coach Ryan Silverfield and head coach Mike Norvell.
“I would also like to give a special thanks to University of Memphis coaching staff,” Randolph wrote.
