From Sacramento, Calif. … teammates call him "Big Rob"… hopes to take his skills acquired from Santa Clara and play professionally in the NBA ... psychology major.

Coach Keating on Robert
"We've recruited Robert for a long time and it has been great to see his improvement over that time. He is a willing defender and rebounder already, and a great teammate to boot. He comes from a great program and his coaches have done a tremendous job bringing Robert to this point. Our team is excited to have Robert in the family and anytime we can add 6-11 and 240 to the mix, good things abound."

Why Robert Chose Santa Clara
"Honestly from the minute I stepped on campus on my visit the coaches and players made me feel like family.  I loved that feeling when I came on campus.  As a player, I feel like it's a perfect fit for me.  I have seen the work Santa Clara has done with big men, like John Bryant, and I'm excited to be a Bronco."
