Standout sophomore Wan’Dale Robinson announces he’s leaving Nebraska | Football



Then, as a sophomore, he was NU’s go-to target by a wide margin, more than doubling the next closest offensive player with 51 catches and 66 targets in the passing game. He also finished fourth on the team in rushing yards at 240 and was arguably the team’s most effective player out of the backfield, averaging 5.2 yards per carry on the season.

“I can’t thank Coach (Scott) Frost, Coach (Ryan) Held, Coach (Troy) Walters and Coach (Matt) Lubick and the rest of the staff enough for the opportunity they had given me,” Robinson wrote. “They helped me grow on and off the field. I will be forever grateful for that. To my teammates, I will miss you guys more than you’ll ever know and I wish all of you the best of luck on the next season. I hope the bond we created will not be broken based on where each of us play. I will cherish every moment I had with you guys and my love for all of you won’t change.” 

The most likely eventual destination for the Frankfort, Kentucky, native, is considered to be the University of Kentucky.

The Wildcats earned a verbal commitment from Robinson out of high school after the Huskers had long appeared to be in the driver’s seat. After five weeks, though, Robinson flipped to the Huskers shortly before National Signing Day in December 2018. At the time, he said he pledged to UK because he felt pressure to stay in the state.
