The Path to Norman
Xavier Robinson, a running back in the 2024 class, was a monster for Carl Albert (Oklahoma) in high school. Robinson put up almost 4,500 rushing yards and 77 touchdowns over his junior and senior seasons, earning the MaxPreps Oklahoma High School Football Player of the Year both seasons. With a long offer sheet including teams like Notre Dame, Oklahoma State, and Houston, the back was in high demand. OU won his commitment in the summer of 2023.

Highlights
This Season
The 2024 running back room will be headlined by Gavin Sawchuk, with Jovantae Barnes, Sam Franklin, and several freshmen all expected to find a role. Robinson will likely redshirt in year one, but he has the talent to find a big role with the Sooners during his time in Norman.
