Former Georgia Bulldogs linebacker Christian Robinson will serve as the new inside linebackers coach for the Baylor Bears. Robinson will coach and recruit under Baylor head coach Dave Aranda.
Christian Robinson played linebacker at Georgia from 2009-2012. In 2022, he was the linebackers coach for the Auburn Tigers. Robinson joined a tough situation at Auburn under Bryan Harsin, but he will be in a more stable environment at Baylor.
Robinson served as a graduate assistant at Georgia under Mark Richt from 2013-2014. Robinson also held a similar role at Ole Miss and Mississippi State before becoming the linebackers coach at Florida under Dan Mullen in 2018. He coached linebackers for four seasons at Florida.
Robinson recorded 159 tackles and 4.5 tackles for loss during his career with Georgia. Robinson served as Florida’s interim defensive coordinator after the Gators lost to South Carolina this season. Robinson was not retained by incoming Florida coach Billy Napier back in 2021.
Baylor announced that it was hiring Robinson via Twitter:
