Oklahoma running back target Xavier Robinson announces commitment date

One of several running backs the Oklahoma Sooners are in hot pursuit of, in-state product Xavier Robinson sets commitment date.

The dominos have been falling for the Oklahoma Sooners in the month of April. After Jeremiah Newcombe broke the ice in March, Oklahoma’s picked up four more commitments this month, the latest coming from four-star safety Jayden Hardy.

Well, the month of May has a chance to be strong as well as one of Oklahoma’s running back targets has locked down his decision date. Three-star in-state product [autotag]Xavier Robinson[/autotag] plans to announce his commitment on May 10.

Robinson, The Oklahoman’s 5A offensive player of the year, had an incredible junior season, rushing for 2,598 yards and 39 touchdowns to lead Carl Albert to the 5A state championship.

The Oklahoma Sooners have been the overwhelming favorite for some time after Robinson received his offer back on January 27. 247Sports and Rivals have each issued predictions favoring the Sooners.

He’s a physical player that is able to take on tacklers and win at the point of attack. Oklahoma’s in the running for several backs in the 2024 cycle, but Robinson looks like a priority target for DeMarco Murray and the Sooners.
