Now the legendary quarterback, who played in the NFL for the Washington Redskins, plans to be at Bristol Motor Speedway on Saturday to see his alma mater take on Virginia Tech in the Pilot/Flying J Battle at Bristol. He recently visited the massive stadium and thought about what it will be like for the current group of players to take part in one Tennessee tradition.
There is nothing like running through the T at UT, but playing here would be hard to explain, he said. I think I would throughly enjoy it.
Many throughly enjoyed watching Robinson play and his style as a dual-threat quarterback has drawn comparisons with current Vols signal caller Josh Dobbs. Robinson sees it himself. He reminds me of myself a little bit, Robinson said. He is a little bit better than I was. I think hes going to come along and turn out to be a brute force.

Excellent read on Robinson from early June, don't think I've seen it posted here:
Robinson says he returned to Knoxville to get his degree from Tennessee. He needs 12 hours to graduate. He took spring and summer semesters off, but returns the classroom in the fall. In the meantime, Robinson umpires youth baseball games and works other jobs.
Getting his sociology degree is priority No. 1.
Its huge, Robinson said. Thats what I came to school for, to get my degree. I told my mom Id get my degree, and thats what Im here to do, get my degree. I told my mom and dad that a long time ago. I want to get that degree and just move on.
