Charleston Southern's RB Ben Robinson "Undersized," Plays Big Role on Offense
“It was about a week before signing day and (former CSU assistant) Scott Browne from Elon told me about a kid from Florida they had in camp — a guy with great speed but a little undersized,” (CSU Head Coach Jamey) Chadwell said. “We saw some film, felt like he fit into what we would be doing offensively, and we lucked up and got him signed. We knew he came from a great high school program so we knew he would be prepared for college football.”
Robinson is part of a stable of running backs this season. He, along with juniors Darius Hammond and Mike Holloway, will handle the bulk of the running game duties. “We all push each other here,” he said. “Competition makes us all better and we push each other to be the best we can be. I just try to be myself, not try to do too much. “I want to win and I will do whatever my team needs for me to win. That started in high school. We were successful at Lincoln (High School - Tallahassee, FL)because we were unselfish and willing to do whatever the coaches needed us to do.”
