Previous Message

After Signing with Humboldt State their coach said:
"Rob is someone who has really made a name for himself in the West Coast basketball recruiting circles," said Tifft. "Rob's competitiveness and toughness will elevate our program from day one. He is a great shooter, and his ability to score in bunches and play multiple positions will be extremely important for us as the season progresses. We are excited to welcome him to the Green and Gold."

Some HS highlights here, in the first video he is #3...dude is a lefty with a nice stroke, doesn't lift up much on his shot a little flat footed but he's got touch and some good anticipation.

Humboldt St. offensive highlights, getting good lift on his deep shot now, his X page link below, scroll down a little to see the offensive highlights video

Looks like he played at LB Millikan until transferring to JSerra probably to get more exposure.

He's known as a deep threat in HS

Looks like he may have a high motor and be very competitive. I like his 3 pt fake and drive its quick.
