Top 5 Mississippi State Recruiting Busts
3. Damien Robinson
2010 Signing Class
This one stings a little more than some of the others. Damein Robinson graduated from Olive Branch High School, the same one I graduated from, so to see him do as poorly as he has stings a little more.

Damien Robinson was the highest rated prospect in the 2010 signing class. The offensive line was going to be built around the stud recruit. For various reasons including injuries, Robinson has hardly seen the field during games. He has one last chance to prove me wrong. He was granted an additional year of eligibility after Robinson missed the entire 2014 season.
If he turns out to be a blocking machine in 2015, I might be willing to take his name off of this list. But right now, he has to stay on it. I’d love for him to prove me wrong on this one in 2015.
