FAMU's Robinson to miss rest of season

Offensive tackle Steven Robinson will miss the rest of the season with the Florida A&M football team after undergoing surgery to repair a broken left ankle that he sustained in Saturday's win over Delaware State University.

The loss of the former Lincoln High School standout will create a bit of shifting of personnel on the line, but coach Joe Taylor said Monday that he didn't expect the unit to see any drop off in talent. Jarian Moreland, a 6-foot-5, 320-pound transfer from the University of Central Florida, will replace Robinson at left tackle, Taylor said.

Robinson went down early in the fourth quarter of FAMU's 17-14 victory over Delaware State University. FAMU also had to play the second half without running back Philip Sylvester, who twisted his right ankle.
