Pawling (NY) Trinity-Pawling High School DE Austrian Robinson has UM in his top three along with Maryland and Mississippi.
He's taken an official visit to Maryland already (Dec. 6) and is set to visit UM the weekend of Jan. 16 with Mississippi the following weekend.
"I'll take another visit after that (Mississippi trip) to UCF and then will make a decision," Robinson said.
Earlier this month Robinson's mother got an in-home visit from Cane coaches Al Golden and Mark D'Onofrio.
"I'm at a boarding school so they visited her and she said she really liked them, felt comfortable with them," Robinson said.
Robinson says he typically speaks mostly with D'Onofrio and Jethro Franklin.
"They told me how they want me to just come for playing right now, said I can impact the team right now," said Robinson, a 6-foot-5, 270-pounder. "They want me to visit so I can see what they're all about."
He says he's looked at Miami's depth chart and that "it's a good chance to play at my position, which is a key factor for me. And they're known for developing defensive linemen, which is good."
But UM has ground to make up here - Robinson says Maryland has the edge from his top three group.
"It's hard to say how much they're in front," Robinson said. "But they're leading because of how everything felt when I visited there. And they need defensive ends."
He says "once I get to Miami I'll see" where the Canes stand.
Robinson said UM coaches told him he would play defensive end primarily and move inside to defensive tackle in third down situations.
The chance of UM overtaking Maryland and landing him?
"I don't know right now, but it's definitely a high chance," Robinson said.
