Cleo Robinson, a defensive end from Paul VI who will be moving to linebacker this season, has made an oral commitment to attend the University of Louisville. The 6-foot-11/2, 220-pound Robinson said he informed the Louisville coaches yesterday.

"Louisville had my major in engineering, which was a plus," said Robinson, who carries a 3.8 grade-point average. "Plus it's a good conference, good football program, and I feel a great opportunity."

Robinson, a first-team all-Burlco/Olympic Conference Patriot Division choice on defense, also plays tight end but said that Louisville recruited him to be a linebacker.

Among the other schools that Robinson said he was considering were Rutgers, Maryland, Temple, Pitt, Villanova, Penn and Harvard.

According to NCAA rules, an incoming senior can't sign a football letter of intent until Feb. 3.
