When TCU honors Robert Hughes, he’ll see a player he could have had

It has been years since TCU guard Alex Robinson had a chance to play for Robert Hughes — a chance he never got, in fact.

Hughes retired in 2005, well before Robinson could reach ninth grade at Dunbar High School.

But Monday, he’ll get to play with Hughes in attendance when the 14th-ranked Horned Frogs take on Texas Southern at Schollmaier Arena and recognize the coaching legend at halftime.

“His coaching style, he’s old-school, of course,” Robinson said. “My parents felt like I needed that, so they really wanted me to play for him.
