TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) – Thursday marked a huge moment for the Robinson brothers. The Florida High grads are set to become Florida State Seminoles.
As of Thursday morning, Anthony, who’s spent the last three years at Missouri, and his younger brother Amare, who played at Tallahassee State last year, committed to play at Florida State.
“As first, I didn’t even know how to react to be honest,” Anthony said. “But we just froze through a little minute, looked at each other through the screen and was like, is this for real?”
Anthony entered the portal last week and received interest from several big programs. But, he said, when the opportunity presented itself in Tallahassee, it was a no-brainer to come home.
He said he wanted to be a part of what Head Coach Luke Loucks is building at Florida State, and when Amare was offered too? That took away any doubt.
“I was there on Zoom supporting my brother, like always. I was starstruck in the moment, I can’t lie to you. I was just grateful for the opportunity,” Amare said.
Amare helped lead TSC to a top ten national ranking this season, and he said he’s ready to rejoin his brother and represent their hometown in garnet and gold together.
“When we first came to the gym on the visit, my parents started tearing up a little bit,” Anthony said. “I don’t know if they want me to put that out there, but they started tearing up a little bit. Just seeing me and my brother with the jersey on just really meant a lot to them.”
“We talked about it, and now we have a chance to live it. Just want to make the best of it, spend our last year together. It’s been a long time since we’ve been together for a full year, so I’m happy. Of course I’m happy,” Amare said.
“Just bringing the tradition of Florida State basketball back to where it should be, just being a part of that, really couldn’t turn it down, especially being from Tallahassee,” Anthony said.
