​The FSU Seminoles are looking to get back on track in 2026, and they will be counting on star wide receiver Duce Robinson to help them do so. He was one of three players that head coach Mike Norvell brought to the 2026 ACC Kickoff in Charlotte to preview the season.Robinson, who received praise from Norvell and new starting quarterback Ashton Daniels, is the most proven player on the team and their leader. He had a breakout 2025 season, finishing with 56 receptions for 1,081 yards and six touchdowns, making the All-ACC First Team.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThe FSU legacy explored the NFL draft after his strong season, but elected to come back to Tallahassee for a second season to try to boost his stock and get the Seminoles back to playing winning football.He discussed FSU’s wide receiver, his NFL evaluation, and more on Wednesday. Here are his full comments from his time at the main stage.You’re hosting a pickleball classic for the Special Olympics. What went into that decision and why is it important to you?DUCE ROBINSON: I always felt a special kinship to the Special Olympics. Ever since high school, a lot of our managers had been a part of the Special Olympics. I just know how much sports means to them, you know what I mean? And seeing that, growing up around that, just made me really close to it.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThen I love pickle ball. I know a lot of people love pickle ball. It made sense.

What were maybe one or two things that you took away that you’re going to try to improve?DUCE ROBINSON: Yeah, that’s a great question.A couple things that they had said, they would love to see me improve my game upon, they would love to see that I can play a couple more positions, play all over the field.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementA lot of times last year I would be outside in the boundary.

Last year I was running a lot of the same routes, so just being able to show that I can be a complete receiver in myself, be successful at the next level, that’s one of the main reasons I came back.Q. How have you seen Danzy and Boggs improve and develop?DUCE ROBINSON: Those dudes, they have ceilings about as high as I’ve ever seen. Danzy is going into his second true year of being a receiver. He’s still figuring it out on the fly. I don’t think a lot of people
