2012 Michigan commitment Glenn Robinson III participated in Under Amour’s inaugural Grind Session camp over the weekend. The event was hosted in Chicago and featured 50 of the nation’s top players regardless of class. The combine style event featured traditional athletic testing as well as professional level instruction and drills.
Robinson measured very well during combine testing and recorded the highest vertical leap of all camp participants. Under Armour’s website lists Robinson with a 36-inch vertical leap, 12-foot vertical approach with measurements of 6′ 4.25″ (presumably without shoes) and 204 pounds. He also appears to have the best Combine 360 composite score that’s listed on the website with a mark of 298. You can find Robinson’s full testing results as well as scouting notes from around the internet after the jump.

Robinson wasn’t just a workout warrior, he impressed on the court as well. Scout.com named him one of the two standouts at the event ($), citing his continued development and improvement.
The 6-foot-6 wing may be one of the more underrated wing prospects in the country, as he’s athletic, has developed his jump shot and is an improved scorer. Michigan is getting a difference maker in Robinson.
ESPN’s Reggie Rankin also noted Robinson as a stand out on Day 1 and added this on ESPN.com:
Michigan commit wing Glenn Robinson Jr. (St. John, Ind./Lake Central), who had the best vertical at the event with 36 inches, has continued to improve. He attacked defenders off the bounce, finished above the rim with authority on the break and knocked down midrange jumpers. Robinson is freaky athletic and has all the makings to be special.
Robinson had a very strong summer and seems to continue to improve every time he hits the floor in front of national scouts. Make sure to check out this recent interview with Robinson from Joe Eberhardt.
