Georgia center Angel Robinson knows the meaning of sharing.

That’s because since she came into the world she has had to share everything with her twin brother James.

“I never knew what it’s like to have my own birthday,” Angel said joking. “I have to split things two ways instead of just having it all to myself.”

James and Angel were born April 20, 1987 and raised in Marietta where they attended high school. Though Angel excelled at basketball, James never developed the same skill for the game.

“Angel was the basketball superstar,” James said. “I was kind of the nerd when it came to basketball.”

When it was time for the two to decide their college futures it looked as if the two would be separated for the first time. Angel was a top-10 recruit looking to go to a solid basketball school, while James was trying to find something closer to home.

But to their surprise, when Georgia coach Andy Landers came to the Robinson house on an official visit to recruit the high-school All-American, he was there to recruit James as well.

“Coach Landers said, ‘James if you come to the University of Georgia, I’ll take your sister too,’” Angel said laughing.

Added James: “Coach Landers asked me if I wanted to be a manager on the team, and I’m thinking, ‘Wow, work all day with girls, who wouldn’t want to do that.’”

James and Angel have been inseparable since their first day at Georgia. When they first arrived on campus, James was Angel’s main escort as she didn’t have a car to get around campus.

“James was like my limo driver, he’s very overprotective as my brother,” Angel said. “He was willing to get me from point A to point B without complaining about anything, so he had to rearrange his schedule to make sure that I was to practice on time.”

One of James’ duties as a manager is to practice with the post players and try to strengthen the inside play. But that was a problem early this season, when he accidentally got a little too physical with Angel.

“We were playing post defense, and I think he was being goofy at one point, but he did the post move and the next thing you know my shoulder slipped [out],” Angel said.

“I felt so bad,” James said. “Coach is always telling me, ‘Go hard James,’ and then I do something like that.”

Angel didn’t let that bother her, though.

“He’s very goofy, has a great sense of humor, and is always trying to put a smile on my face,” Angel said.

James will be on the bench tonight in Lexington, Ky. to root on his Lady Dogs – Angel included.

“It’s just great to have James around, because he’s been here since day one with me, even with the injuries,” Angel said. “I love that boy.”
