Michigan running backs coach Tony Alford has been leading the charge in this recruitment for nearly a year at this point, offering Robinson a scholarship back last June.

He took a pair of visits to Ann Arbor this spring and will also take his official visit the weekend of June 19. Robinson had great things to say about Alford coming out of his most recent spring visit. “Coach Alford is like a father figure that’s going to be a hard coach,” Robinson told Rivals’ Chad Simmons ($).
