AUBURN -- Jovon Robinson is back on the Plains.

The top-ranked junior college prospect, who rushed for 811 yards and five touchdowns at Georgia Military College this season, arrived at Auburn over the weekend and practiced Monday, though he cannot compete in the Outback Bowl.

"He got some (reps)," Malzahn said. "He just got here and just trying to get him slowly acclimated and everything that goes with it."

Robinson originally signed with Auburn in 2012 but was ruled ineligible after the discovery of a change to one of his high school grades by a counselor.

The recruiting sites that cover Auburn - AuburnSports.com, AuburnUndercover.com and Inside the Auburn Tigers - first reported Robinson's joining the program.
