On January 8 — just a week after the team’s Citrus Bowl victory over Auburn — Northwestern added former Kansas wide receiver Stephon Robinson Jr. via the transfer portal.
Robinson chose the Jayhawks in 2018 after starting his collegiate career at El Camino College in Torrance, California, as it was the only Power Five offer the three-star recruit had at the time.
After a promising initial season in Lawrence, Robinson absolutely burst onto the scene in his junior year, posting a gaudy 45 receptions for 727 yards and eight receiving touchdowns—the latter of which are tied for fourth most by a Jayhawk in a single season.
