Longhorns RB Bijan Robinson Earns Consensus All-American Honors
There have been numerous running backs to sport the burnt orange and white as a Texas Longhorn, but there have been few that were more special than Bijan Robinson.
The running back has taken home numerous accolades following his dominance this season, including the Doak Walker Award which is given annually to the best running back in college football.
On Tuesday, though, he added yet another accomplishment to his already full mantle. Robinson was named a Sporting News First Team All-American, which is his fourth first team All-American honor.
With his place on the Sporting News All-American first team, Robinson is officially a consensus All-American. He becomes the eighth running back in Texas history to do so, further etching his name as a Longhorn legend.
Robinson did it all for the Longhorns on offense, rushing for 1,580 yards and 18 touchdowns while adding 314 receiving yards and a pair of touchdowns through the air.
Now, he will likely turn his attention to the next level as he is widely considered the best running back in the upcoming NFL draft. Wherever he gets drafted, though, will never take away Robinson's status as a Longhorn legend.
