Branson Robinson becomes the highest-ranked signee by Georgia ahead of the 2021 season. They also have nine commitments now that are in ESPN's top 300 prospects. Thanks to his stocky build and speed, Robinson is already being compared to former Bulldogs RB and current Cleveland Brown, Nick Chubb.
Branson Robinson runs a 4.49 40 yard dash and spent his offseason away from football on the track for Germantown. This kid a stud and should make an immediate impact at the college level. Georgia got a good one.
