USC Transfer WR Duce Robinson Announces Big Commitment

12/22/2024 08:06 PM

USC transfer wide receiver Duce Robinson announced his commitment on Sunday evening. It's a big one.

Robinson, a former top 100 recruit, had 23 catches for 396 yards and five touchdowns. He averaged an impressive 17.2 yards per catch. The Trojans went a disappointing 6-6 this season, finishing ninth in the Big Ten Conference.

The former four-star recruit opted to enter the NCAA's transfer portal following the end of the regular season. On Sunday night, Robinson announced his transfer commitment.

Robinson has committed to Florida State.

ESPN was really high on Robinson when he decided to enter the NCAA's transfer portal.

He was ranked the No. 15 overall player in the portal.

From ESPN.com:

Robinson was one of the most athletically gifted prospects in the Class of 2023, a two-sport stud as a tight end/receiver and outfielder who ranked 40th in the ESPN 300. He signed with the Trojans to play both sports and has had two productive seasons on the football field with a combined 39 receptions for 747 yards and seven touchdowns. Robinson ranked sixth on the team in targets in 2024 and might be looking for an opportunity for a more significant role going forward.

Robinson is a gigantic target out wide with his height, 82-inch wingspan and 10-inch hands. He's a smooth mover with natural ball skills who's capable of hauling in poorly thrown passes. Robinson developed as a red zone threat in 2024, an area where he should continue to shine. He's not overly sudden and only possesses adequate top-end speed for the receiver position, as many, including us, felt his brightest future might have been at tight end coming out of high school.

Florida State had a rough 2024 season, but the Seminoles have already made some big moves in the transfer portal.

The Seminoles currently have nine commitments in their transfer class and have the No. 13 class in the country.
