Michigan Signs McGary And Glenn Robinson's Son

ANN ARBOR (AP) - Michigan has landed one of the nation's top basketball prospects and the son of a former NBA star.

Mitch McGary and Glenn "Tre" Robinson III signed a national letters of intent Wednesday to be Wolverines.

The 6-foot-10, 250-pound forward is ranked by recruiting analysts as one of the best players in the country at any position. He averaged 12 points and 10 rebounds last season for Brewster Academy in New Hampshire.

Robinson is the son of Glenn Robinson, who starred at Purdue and was the No. 1 overall pick in the 1994 NBA draft. The 6-6, 185-pound forward averaged more than 22 points and six rebounds a game last season at Lake Central High School in Indiana.

The 18th-ranked Wolverines open the season Friday at home against Ferris State.
