OU will be without one of its best offensive playmakers for the rest of spring practice. Coach Brent Venables provided a health update on running back Xavier Robinson on Tuesday, after Robinson suffered a calf strain in practice last week. Robinson is not expected to return to practice this spring, which has opened the door for three newcomers.
