Former Jones High defensive lineman De’Antre Robinson did not report to the University of Texas last week when school resumed for its spring semester, according to numerous sources.
Robinson, who signed a National Letter of Intent to play for Texas on Dec. 20, learned two weeks ago that the coach who recruited him to Austin, defensive line coach Bo Davis, had been hired away by LSU coach Brian Kelly.
Robinson, an early graduate at Jones, is thought to be seeking a release from his national letter of intent. Attempts to reach Robinson were unanswered.
The usual hold up with being released from a NLI is the contingencies surrounding the release. Texas may demand that Robinson not sign with another SEC program, or specify certain schools with which he could not sign. There has been no announcement from the school or from Robinson, but it is known that he didn’t report for school and he remains in limbo.
Once he is released from his NLI, the schools who look to be the frontrunners for his services are LSU and Florida. He has already had an official visit to UF, but not to LSU.
Robinson was, at one point, the top player in the Sentinel’s 2024 Central Florida Super60. During his senior season for 10-4 Jones, Robinson had 79 tackles, 10 sacks, nine tackles for loss and an interception. In three seasons at Jones, after transferring his sophomore season from Edgewater, Robinson had 216 tackles, 42 tackles for loss and 21 sacks.
