WR DeMarcus Robinson drops Florida, returns to Clemson commitment

Maybe it?s because it?s chillier in winter, but for whatever reason, college football recruits tend to get cold feet this time of the year.

Some may have been committed to a school nearly a year ago, but when it gets down to the last couple of weeks, they begin second guessing their decisions. On Monday, DeMarcus Robinson ended his commitment to Florida?one that lasted less than a week?and went back to his commitment to Clemson.

Robinson is a 6-foot-2, 200-pound wide receiver?a position of need for the Gators. He has taken official visits to both schools and Notre Dame since the beginning of November.

The Fort Valley (Ga.) native is apparently a very torn teenager, which isn?t surprising. He plays at Peach County High School.

?Right now, he is a flustered young man,? Peach County coach Chad Campbell told TigerNet.com, ?He has two great schools to choose from, and he doesn?t know what he wants to do. He is supposed to be in school before the end of the month. It is weighing on him, and he is torn between two places. He has a great relationship with the coaches at one school, and the other has the mystique of the SEC.?

Robinson plans to enroll early at the school he chooses, so his decision is coming down to the last couple of days, not weeks, like the regular February signees. Robinson wants to be on campus in January.

As a senior, Robinson caught 47 passes for 957 yards and 12 touchdowns. As a junior, he caught 53 passes for 1,024 yards and 10 TDs.
