    Mike on Mic Episode 13: College Basketball Grind: Patrick Robinson Jr’s Path to Purdue Northwest

    On this episode of Mike on Mic, I sit down with my brother Patrick Robinson Jr., a hooper whose journey has been nothing short of inspiring. From starting at the University of Missouri St. Louis, experiencing the highs of a deep NCAA tournament run, and then facing the tough setback of an ACL tear, Patrick has battled through challenges most athletes hope they never see. After grinding his way back on the court at Waubonsee Community College, he now steps into a new chapter at Purdue Northwest University, ready to make his mark. Off the court, Patrick is giving back by coaching AAU basketball, helping the next generation find their path in the game. We talk recovery, resilience, family, and the lessons basketball continues to teach both on and off the floor.
