4-star recruit arrested for pot possession on Ohio State visit

Well, this isn’t how you want to make a first impression.

James Robinson was arrested earlier this month for marijuana possession while on a visit to Ohio State, Franklin County records show. Robinson was arrested in an off-campus apartment during his Jan. 21 visit, and was released later that night.

The charge carries a maximum fine of $150, but Robinson is due back in court on March 1. That arraignment likely comes with more punishment than the actual punishment, considering Robinson hails from Lakeland, Fla.

A four-star recruit, Robinson is considered a lean to sign with Florida.
