Veteran South Dakota forward with timing, toughness, and sneaky clutch DNA
Eric Robertson has long been the kind of South Dakota forward coaches trust: a 6-foot-8 veteran who has shown rebounding, shot-blocking, and timely scoring touch, including a memorable double-overtime upset of Minnesota in the 2015 season. His profile suggests a hard-nosed, low-drama frontcourt piece who can finish around the rim, defend with length, and bring grit more than flash. For a roster fit, he projects as a physical, steady complement rather than a high-usage star—valuable if a team wants experience, toughness, and someone who understands how to win ugly.
