- These are highlights from Glenn Robinson's final year at Purdue in which he was named Player of the Year by virtually every meaningful publication/group (including Wooden and Naismith awards). He led Purdue to the Big Ten title (1st of 3 consecutive) as he led the nation in scoring (30.3 pts/game) and Big Ten in rebounding (10+/game). He went on to become the #1 player taken in the 1994 NBA Draft and had a very good NBA career (averaging 20.7 pts, 6.1 rebs, 2.7 asts, 1.2 stls for 11 years). After being selected by the Bucks, Glenn and his agent were able to sign a substantial contract of 10 year, $68 million. During the year(s) after this draft, when the NBA collective bargaining agreement was renewed - it was modified so that rookie salaries were to be predetermined in a specific range based on your draft position/selection. He is the second all-time leading scorer in Bucks history.

He was must see TV back in the day. Dude could light it up. Prototype basketball star who could do it all.
Pretty much the best college player i've ever seen. Been watching hoops since 1990.. He was unreal college player. A good NBA player as well, but HOF College player..
Joe Zigmand dude was unstoppable.. I'm from Michigan and a fb 5 fan and he used to always drop 30 on us
He was unguardable with amazing foot work.
Most unstoppable college player in my lifetime. Grad HS in 1993. Totally agree . His midrange pullup went in every time
. . Couldnt block it. Couldnt stop it
The dunk on Ostertag is burned in my memory. Saw it Live
Wow he was amazing
best player ive ever seen in college
That dunk on Ostertag was sick though! Who’s here in 2020!!!
Which one? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 He dunked on him twice that game
Hands down one of the best college baskeball players ever
Keady is a legend. Glenn was a legend. Fun times in the early 90s.
Robinson was darn near unguardable that year. Didn't have the pro career I expected, but one of the best college performers ever.
This was and still is my dude...THE BIG DOG! a complete player, with a viciousness like none other
What a stud. Wish we had more of a supporting cast to help him out. Went to Mackey Arena to watch his final regular season basketball game. It was against Illinois and the Big Dog didn't disappoint. He scored 50!
the most unguardable college player I ever seen
This guy's was a Jordan level of superstar that year in college. Such a special player. I used to follow him that year .
One of the most dominant players in the history of college basketball. Boiler up!
In my opinion, he's the most complete player in Big Ten history.
Absolute beast at Purdue. Lead the nation in scoring and rebounds. When you can drop 30 a game playing in a major conference thats saying something.
And double digit boards.
yea i use to watch big dog when i was a freshman in high school i was playing ball in high school looked up to Big Dog No lie he was a beast
Big Dog was a straight up BEAST at Purdue. He was puttin 30 on anybody that tried to guard him.
Great memories of a great player!
I remember that chessy ass music in the 80's and early 90's LOL!
If i recall he put up 30 and 10 per game, big dawwwwggg!
For his size his mid range game was ridiculous, perfect form follow thru. Man I loved G.Rob
Not only was he practically unguardable, but he played with a kind of slo-mo style that boggled your brain to watch. Loved Big Dog!
Glen Robinson had a solid nba career what a few y'all talking about he was an all-star a few won a championship with the spurs
Agreed brother Big Dog was the shit! You are missed but happy he is a champion. Grant Hill? No.
And averaged 20ppg
Forward with a 2 guard 2k package
as much as i love glenn and how absolutely amazing he was, that is a very debatable topic. i mean, rick mount? and then the football guys, mark phipps, leroy keyes, etc
Hey does anybody have the Mcdonald's game he was in? There was this ferocious put-back dunk that Robinson had. It didn't count becuase of an off the ball foul, but it's probably my favorite dunk of all time.
If I remember correctly, he had a series of knee problems. When his ACL went out it was all over; he couldn't do anything but shoot (although he was pretty good at that).
He never had a knee problem. Achilles. You are dumb.
Have you ever watched the dude play? It didn't matter if he couldn't do nothing but shoot, cause he was insane at that
Averaged 30.3 pts a game. I was a little kid and went with my parents to see his last NCAA games against Kansas (in which he scored 44) and against Duke (he outscored and out-rebounded Grant Hill).
Purdue's best athlete while at Purdue--hands down!
Even as an Iowa fan, I can't wait to see how his son fares at Michigan. The Big Dog was my favorite basketball player of all time considering what he did at Purdue. He made me a NBA fan following him with the Bucks. I know he had unbelievable shortcomings as a pro, (playing defense) but man I loved watching him ball. Straight silk.
He was superman as a college player. He seemed to play with a little more passion in college and was more of a leader of the team. He was an excellent NBA player, but I kind of wish he played with the same kind of passion in the pro's. As an NBA player he was more calm and blended into more of a team format, but think he could have made a little bigger impact in the pro's after watching these Purdue highlights.
mikem987 yea very solid pro career but yea seems like maybe a little more drive he coulda really been a star
Yeah he straight up back-iron’d that shit at 3:12
didn't he lead the big ten in scoring and rebounding 2 striaght years and he's barely 6'8". Probably played at the highest level i've ever seen a college player play at.
what about the A-TRAIN Mike Alstott
Great video--good to see his shot @ NU. When I was at that game I thought "what are you doing" but now I realized, Martin and Stanback WERE under the basket.
On the VERY off chance he'd miss, of course. :)
If only the Pacers could've somehow gotten him. With Big Dog ruling the paint, Reggie Miller would've been freed up for so many open threes he'd have turned into an absolute beast.
In 1994, he could've played any position on the floor and been the best at that position in the entire Big Ten.
Da Bigg Dogg
Big dog and kevin durant are the best college players ive ever seen.. big dog.. legend 💪🏿
I don't really think he "underachieved" 20 and 6 for career numbers in 10 years is pretty damn solid...I just think people thought too much of him and thought he was an all-around player
The guy was a scorer, pure and simple. Look at this whole video, there isn't one play other than him taking the ball to the rack. It doesn't work that way in the NBA. "G-Rob" was just exposed for being a all O guy. I do agree that he had some off the court issues that did hinder him.
@younotcookin that's matt waddell
People need to realize that there was legitimate predictions that Robinson would have a more dominant pro career than Shaq before he was drafted, no shit.
Coming from a current Boilermaker, Big Dogg is the last great Purdue player. We miss you Glenn, you actually give us a chance to win a national championship. Boiler Up!
The graphic with Robinson and 12 makes me laugh. Still odd Robinson went ahead of Kidd and Hill in 1994.
Wasn't odd at all. He was by far the best prospect.
What's odd is how kidd was drafted that high.
His mid range. Him in doc MJ Reggie. Joe D. Durant. Beat mid range game ever seen. Like he said "$$$ in da bank" and he had a VERY GOOD NBA career. Was no accident them bucks teams (cassell Allen and big dawg) were pushing EVERY1. IM a HUGE pacer fan. Game 5 in the old elimination games pavers were 1 seed. Milwaukee took us to final poss. Beat hit a GW as time fell buried it. Was 1-14 when T.Best released history to defeat a stingy almost undeniable Bucks squad. And in prior games. Had reggie Miller moment. Or the Bucks beat us. Very underrated Bucks teams. Gotta remember Glenn NOT the 1st option. He easily could have dumped 30ppg on a weaker team at the time-clippers
He da truth.. Gary Roosevelts own. Proud to be a Hoosier. And the arguement Alan Henderson was better.... BULL SHIT!!!! Brebuf had their best squad ever.. The big dawg couldn't mount a whole unit. 5 is greater than 1 all American. One of. I believe Danny Manning and kemba had better collage careers. But DEF. Arguable. Top 5 collage player ever. Like I stated. He a #1 option in the L. He gwtting 25-30ppg
Did he even make it at 3:13?
Wow i forgot how good he was. Did he just fell in love with the jumpshot in the league? Cause I do not remember him rebounding and playing defense when he was with Ray Allen and Sam Cassell?
G-Rob's problem was he stopped caring. He didn't play no defense, he hardly rebounded and I would argue he was a poor man's Nowitski. Man, I saw him in HS for 3 years and THAT guy was a BEAST inside and on defense, that guy disappeared after he got drafted................
at 3:12 they show a MISSED reverse dunk lol why
wat about michael beasley??
6'7 w/o shoes n barely 6'8 wit shoes on
he led the NCAA in rebounds(12.6)4th in scoring(26.2)all in his freshman year
i love Big Dogg but beasley was prett good in college too
No
Thanks G S, just no
He did underachieve because he played with a lot of effort in college and when he got to the NBA he played in a very casual manner. It was as if he no longer cared. Coming out of college he was expected to be an all time great. He will not be remembered that way so yeah he underacheived.
Yeah, I guess he skipped class during sex ed when they discussed birth control...
You work for $10/hr, dipsheeeet.
@swing4dafences Ummm...No. Glenn was an unbelievable college player, but you can't say he is more "complete" than Ervin "Magic" Johnson. Best player in Big Ten history.
In college...way better than Magic. Way.
Knee problems must've been the partying with women and the 8 to 9 kids he have from them.
tryingtobepositive31 you dumbfuck
what could have happened if he wasn't a ballhogging chucker in the pros
