LOOK: 5-star TE Duce Robinson visiting Georgia
Phoenix Pinnacle five-star tight end Duce Robinson is in Athens, Ga., this weekend for his official visit to Georgia.
Robinson is the No. 22 overall recruit and No. 1 tight end in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $194k. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
“Georgia already has two tight ends committed for the Class of 2023 in four-star prospects Pearce Spurlin and Lawson Luckie, so Todd Hartley is sitting in a nice position when it comes his room moving forward regardless of what happens with this visit. Still, there’s absolutely no question Georgia has room and would love nothing more than to pry one of the nation’s best offensive weapons off of the west coast,” DawgsHQ’s Jake Reuse said in a preview of the weekend. “And Robinson has been clear that Georgia is among his considerations, outside of just putting in a visit this weekend.”
Duce Robinson Scouting Summary
Jumbo athlete with a large catch radius who looks like one of the better tight end prospects over the last few recruiting cycles. Has outstanding statue and length at over 6-foot-6 and 230 pounds with a 6-foot-10 wingspan. Plays and moves like a receiver at that size. A smooth, fluid mover who showed continued improvement in top-end play speed as a junior, running away from defensive backs. Has one of the largest catch radiuses in the 2023 cycle and consistently wins in contested situations. Was the top pass-catcher at the Opening Finals prior to his junior season and created a considerable mismatch over the middle of the field. Turned in a very productive junior season with close to 1,000 receiving yards. Has an outstanding multi-sport profile as one of the nation’s top baseball prospects and also plays basketball. Will need to continue getting stronger to aid in blocking, but has the look of an elite tight end prospect with five-star upside.
