Written by Brent Yarina, BTN.comMy moment: The incredible one-on-one battle with Ohio State’s Evan Turner. Come to think of it, tonight’s performance (26 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists) wasn’t all that bad, either. Read the AP recap.
@BTNBrentYarina at MN his Soph year when he took multiple charges and dove on lose balls with a broken back because his shot wouldn't fall.—

When you know is is just the finest person as he is a player.
We will miss Jackson also, I am proud of him!
I liked them all except the big loss at Michigan State. It is a great family.
A great ball-player, and an outstanding individual. Boiler-up (PU ’80)
Robbie is special because he exemplifies what it means to be a Boilermaker – someone who never gives up, even in the face of extreme adversity. As an alum (’86), I am very proud of how he (and Ryne and Lewis) have represented Purdue over the last several years.
