South Carolina Football’s No. 11 Linebacker of All-Time:
Kenneth Robinson

Kenneth Robinson (1982-1986) was a very good linebacker who learned behind some of the best ‘backers in school history. Once JD Fuller, Mike Durrah, and James Seawright graduated, it was Robinson’s time. The Charleston native tallied over 100 tackles in both his junior and senior years to lead the team.

Robinson was picked as an All-South Independent player and was a team captain for Coach Joe Morrison. He is among the best ever at bringing down ball carriers behind the line of scrimmage as his 27 tackles for loss is the highest total for any full-time stand-up linebacker in Gamecock history. Robinson had a short NFL career after his college playing days ended.
