As a four-star prospect, Robinson decided to commit to play for UCLA. He set a UCLA record for total offense by a player in a game with 564 yards against Washington State.

Robinson got the opportunity to play with UCLA for five seasons due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Robinson debuted in the 2023 Hall of Fame Game, replacing Browns backup quarterback Kellen Mond.

Is Deja Erickson Dorian Thompson Robinson Girlfriend?

Dorian Thompson Robinson is a very private man when it comes to his relationships. He has not posted a single picture of him with his girlfriend anywhere.

But the subject of his girlfriend has been raised more frequently than you may imagine. Surprisingly, his mother mentioned it in her diary several years ago.

She confirmed that Robinson had a girlfriend back in 2018 after he decided to play for UCLA.

In her diary, it is written that Robinson’s girlfriend’s mother was the first person to congratulate her regarding his enrollment at UCLA.

Moreover, it was reported that he went to his high school prom with Deja Erickson. There are also several photos of them together during high school on Dorian’s Facebook page.

However, since 2017, he hasn’t posted any pictures of them together. But the fact both of them follow each other on Instagram and all those pictures are not deleted ignites the speculations that they are still together.

Moreover, there were reports that Robinson’s girlfriend had also flown in to celebrate the player’s 21st birthday.

Despite his deliberate effort to not reveal about his girlfriend, different sources found out that his mother and girlfriend went to his apartment to celebrate his special day.

Furthermore, when he tested positive for COVID-19 back in 2021, Robinson said that he would text his girlfriend often to keep himself occupied.

Although all the evidence suggests that the high school lovebirds are still dating, they haven’t publicly revealed any details about their current dating status.

His father is a staunch supporter of Robinson and does not shy away from defending his son.

In  2018, Robinson’s father went to Twitter to show his dissatisfaction with his son’s coach, Chip Kelly.

When a Twitter page started criticizing Robinson, Michael defended his son by saying that the fault lies in the coaching style, not his son.

Michael wrote, “Coaching that is so bad that it demands closed practices… Million dollar coach who bares no responsibility… Just random observations from a frustrated dad!”

Both of his parents love him dearly, and if it were not for them, he would not be where he is today.
