ATHENS — Branson Robinson is ready to hit the field at Georgia, and of course, the weight room in the Bulldogs’ new state-of-the-art $80 million football building.
The running back from Germantown high school is known for his powerful runs on the football field and powerlifting off of it, and he’ll be among the Class of 2022 early enrollees looking to turn heads upon his arrival.
Robinson’s senior season had its share of ups and downs as he was slowed by what he referred to as a “bruised Achilles” injury that limited him to 85-percent efficiency.
The Georgia running back room could be deep and talented once again next season with potential Super Senior Zamir White still undecided on whether or not he will turn pro, and rising senior Kenny McIntosh, rising junior Kendall Milton and sophomore Daijun Edwards all thirsting for carries.
Robinson brings an element of raw power that could lead to him completing for short-yardage and goal-line carries from the onset, though those Red Zone trips have been reserved mostly for White in the past.
There are reports Robinson can bench press 400 pounds and deadlift 700, which could put the incoming tailback in contention for team weight room records sooner than later.
