New Jersey point guard T.J. Robinson became the first member of Kenny Payne’s recruiting class of 2024 when he committed to Louisville on Monday afternoon.
Robinson, a three-star prospect, picked the Cards over fellow finalists LSU, Georgetown, Temple and Kansas State.
“I chose Louisville because the coaching staff really stood out to me with them having multiple coaches coming from winning programs, and almost all former NBA players,” Robinson told Rivals.com. “The coaching staff showed me how different they were from other colleges. From the first conversation with coach Kenny Payne, it was great, he is very honest, and wants you to get to the next level so he’ll push you and help you to get there as much as he can.
