Thomas Robinson 6'9" PF

Thomas Robinson , one of the nation's highest rated recruits in the Class of 2009 committed today to the Kansas Jayhawks. Robinson is well known in the DC area where he spent a couple years at Riverdale Baptist in Upper Marlboro , MD before packing his bags this fall for Brewster Academy in New Hampshire. The 6'9" big man also spent time on the AAU circuit with the DC based Squash All Beefs Squad.

Thomas Robinson has really progressed as of late into a elite high major forward and arguably the best shot blocker in the senior class. Bill Self and the Kansas Jayhawks are coming off a national championship season defeating Memphis to earn themselves the top spot in the college basketball. Robinson is the first to commit to the Big XII conference school who are also actively recruiting the country's #1 rated recruit John Wall and solid five star Daniel Orton.  

Robinson began the summer projected as the 80th best prospect in the class of 2009 , however his dominating presence in the paint of late has shot him all the way up to #18. Robinson causes opponents to constantly change their shot , if it is already thrown somewhere in the stands and is tenacious on the glass. Thomas certainly has pro-like talent , something that many rival schools were aware of as Robinson turned down an offer from the Memphis Tigers as well as just about every other elite university in the United States.
