Robinson is ranked four stars and the No. 4 running back in the country per the 247Sports Composite. He’s also the No. 46 player overall in the country and No. 1 prospect from Mississippi for his class.

As things stand, Georgia and Smart hold the No. 6 recruiting class in the country and No. 2 in the SEC.

With so much time until the winter arrives, you know the Bulldogs will keep working overtime to try and finish the year with the No. 1 spot. They sure aren’t strangers to that.
