**BREAKING: Florida State Suspends WR Duce Robinson Indefinitely**
Florida State University has announced that wide receiver Duce Robinson has been suspended indefinitely from the Seminoles football team. The suspension follows an internal investigation into a serious violation of team policies. Specific details regarding the nature of the violation have not been disclosed, but the university emphasized its commitment to maintaining the highest standards of conduct and accountability.
Robinson, a 6-foot-6, 220-pound wide receiver, transferred to Florida State from the University of Southern California (USC) in December 2024. Prior to his transfer, Robinson had a notable career at USC, recording 16 receptions for 351 yards and two touchdowns as a freshman, and 23 receptions for 396 yards and five touchdowns as a sophomore. He was ranked as a five-star recruit in the 2023 class and was regarded as the No. 1 tight end in the country by 247Sports Composite rankings. Additionally, Robinson is the son of Dominic Robinson, a former Florida State receiver who played for the Seminoles under legendary coach Bobby Bowden from 2001 to 2004.
