Robinson showcased his talent on the basketball court while attending Princeton University, where he played for the Princeton Tigers. Over the course of his NCAA career, he scored 1,441 points and earned the title of Ivy League Player of the Year twice (1981-1982 and 1982-1983).

In 2000, Robinson returned to coaching as an assistant at Northwestern University. He later served as the head coach for Brown University’s basketball team for two seasons before spending six years in the same role at Oregon State University.
In his 2010 memoir, Robinson shared that his marriage to Janis Robinson ended around the time he resumed his basketball career. He remarried in 2006 to Kelly McCrum, a former education administrator at Brown University.
