what does Brian Robinson and NFL Scouting Combine have in common?
Brian Robinson (American football) Brian Robinson (born c. 1974) is a former American football player. He played at the safety position for the Auburn Tigers football team in 1993 and 1994. As a junior in 1994, he led the Southeastern Conference with eight interceptions, including three against a Florida team that was ranked nationally No. 1 at the time. Robinson was a consensus selection as a defensive back on the 1994 College Football All-America Team. He left Auburn after his junior year to participate in the 1995 NFL Draft, but he was not selected. The Associated Press in April 1995 reported that the omission of Robinson from the draft was "not totally unexpected" after he tested positive for marijuana and performed poorly at the NFL Scouting Combine.
NBA Draft Combine The NBA Draft Combine is a multi-day showcase that takes place every May before the annual June NBA draft. At the combine, college basketball players receive measurements, participate in interviews, undergo shooting drills, take medical tests, go through five-on-five drills and perform various athletic tests in front of National Basketball Association (NBA) coaches, general managers, and scouts. Athletes attend by invitation only. An athlete's performance during the combine can affect perception, draft status, salary, and ultimately the player's career.
