Texas signee ranked No. 1 running back in nation

According to 247Sports final 2020 class rankings, Texas signee Bijan Robinson is now the No. 1 running back in the nation.

As National Signing Day is approaching on the first Wednesday of February, 247Sports released their final rankings for recruits in the 2020 class.

Over the course of the years, there have become two primary signing days worth noting. In December of each year, known as the early signing period, top athletes can commit to their program of choice by signing National Letters of Intent.

Five-star running back Bijan Robinson took advantage of the early signing period, officially inking his commitment to Texas. Throughout much of the recruiting cycle, Robinson was ranked as the No. 2 running back in the nation behind Zachary Evans.

After impressive performances in the All-American Bowl and Polynesian Bowl, Robinson climbed to the top spot in 247Sports final class rankings. The margin is slim between Robinson and Evans, but Robinson is the total package both on and off the field.

The Tucson, Arizona native became the first running back in Arizona history to rush for more than 2,000 yards in three different seasons.

Robinson should make an immediate impact as a true freshman at Texas.
