        From Bethune Collegiate in Toronto where he averaged 26 ppg, 15 rpg and 5bpg as a senior and then played one semester at Montreal’s Dawson College. Heavily recruited heavily by St. John’s and UCLA but chose St. Joseph’s. But a core course wasn’t recognized by the NCAA clearinghouse and Reid repeatedly took the ACT in hopes of raising his standardized test score to offset the lower course GPA. Earliest he’d play in 1998 would be January, if at all. Projected to play in 1999. “Damian thinks he’s working hard right now. Playing in this league will convince him to work even harder. He has the ability,” said Hawks coach Phil Martelli.

        As a freshman in 1999, Reid started 29 of the 29 games he played, for an average 26.8 mpg. He hit 98-230 (.483) from the floor, 0-1 from the arc and 78-126 (.619) from the line, while garnering 226 boards (including 101 on the offensive glass and a 7.8 rpg), 14 assists (0.5 apg), 55 turnovers (1.9 tpg), 29 steals (1.0 spg), 29 blocks (1.0 bpg), 93 fouls (fouling out 4 times) and 274 points, for a 9.4 ppg (and a game-high 23). The Hawks, coached by Phil Martelli, finished 12-18 overall and 5-11 in Atlantic Ten play. Can bang inside and block shots. A starter for the Hawks, Reid had big games against Tennessee (14 points and 14 rebounds), Xavier (23 points and 13 rebounds) and at Massachusetts (17 points and 13 rebounds). But Reid appeared to run out of gas down the stretch, failing to achieve double figures in four of the Hawks last five games. Nevertheless, Reid was selected to the Atlantic 10 all-rookie team.

        As a soph in 2000, Reid averaged 7.6 ppg, 6.3 rpg, 0.4 apg, and shot .515 from the floor for a 13-16 Hawks squad, coached by Phil Martelli, that finished 7-9 (tied 4th) in Atlantic Ten east division play. He often disappeared on offence as the St. Joseph’s guard rarely got him the ball. He started all 29 games, playing and average of 20.7 mpg. He hit 84-163 (.515) from the floor and 53-82 (.673) from the line, grabbed 83 offensive boards and 82 defensive rebounds for a total of 184 and a 6.3 rpg average. He committed 91 fouls and was disqualified four times. He had 13 assists, 33 turnovers, 18 blocks, 12 steals and scored 221 points for a 7.6 ppg average.

        In his junior year, Reid split time with 7-1 Alexandre Sazanov at center, while starting 33 of 33 games, playing an average 23.2 mpg. He hit 110-179 (.615) from the field, 1-4 from the arc and 75-120 (.625) from the line, while garnering 216 boards (including 66 on the offensive glass and a 6.5 rpg), 96 fouls (fouling out 4 times), 31 assists, 63 turnovers, 17 blocks, 15 steals and 296 points, for a ppg of 9.0. The Hawks, coached by Phil Martelli, finished 26-7 overall and 14-2 (1st) in Atlantic 10 play. Although they lost to Massachusetts in the conference tournament, they were invited to the NCAA, where they beat Georgia Tech 66-62 in the opening round and then lost to Stanford 90-83. “He continues to do the smaller things for us,” said Martelli. “On a team with a lot of scoring, he’s invaluable because he just fits. He doesn’t have a lot of demands.” Reid led the Hawks in field-goal shooting for the third consecutive year, setting a single season Hawks record. He was nicknamed ‘Little Admiral’ because of his resemblance to Dave Robinson.

        As a senior in 2002, Reid started 30 of 31 games, playing an averaged 25.6 mpg. He hit 103-168 (.613) from the floor, 6-10 from the arc and 76-109 (.697) from the line, while garnering 209 boards (including 66 on the offensive glass and a 6.7 rpg), 6 assists (0.2 apg), 35 turnovers (1.1 tpg), 18 steals (0.6 spg), 23 blocks (0.7 bpg), 102 fouls (fouling out 8 times) and 288 points, for a 9.3 ppg (and a game-high 19).

The Braves, coached by Jim Molinari, finished 15-14 overall and 9-9 (tied 6th) in Missouri Valley Conference play.

        As a sophomore in 1999, Robinson suffered a series of injuries, including a stretched knee ligament which limited his mobility and jumping ability. He started 19 of the 26 games he played, for an average 26.0 mpg. He hit 58-116 (.500) from the floor, 7-31 (.226) from the arc and 47-66 (.712) from the line, while garnering 78 boards (including 23 on the offensive glass and a 3.0 rpg), 33 assists (1.3 apg), 51 turnovers (2.0 tpg), 27 steals (1.0 spg), 16 blocks (0.6 bpg), 49 fouls (fouling out once) and 170 points, for a 6.5 ppg (and a game-high 13). The Braves, coached by Jim Molinari, finished 17-12 overall and 11-7 (tied 2nd) in the Missouri Valley conference before dropping a 51-50 decision to Butler in the opening round of the NIT. In the offseason, Robinson averaged 12.0 ppg for the Canadian team in the World University Games. “Anytime you can play in the summer helps,” said Bradley coach Jim Molinari. “Jerome will get better because improvement is directly related to character.

The Braves, coached by Jim Molinari, finished 14-16 overall and 10-8 (5th) in Missouri Valley play. “Jerome played better at the end of last year. But he has to decide if he’s going to lead this team. I don’t think he’s proven that yet. He’s a tremendous defender and he gets better and better,” said Molinari. The Braves were picked to win the conference but never gelled during the season, losing in the first round of the conference tournament by a 71-62 count to eventual champion Creighton. Molinari said team didn’t handle high expectations and underachieved after losing its confidence during a tough preseason conference schedule.

He’s spent a lot of extra hours – more than most kids do – in the gym, and he’s enhanced his game, basically in all areas. He was not a very good defender, initially, but he’s improved in that area. And he can drive the ball and he’s good rebounder. He’s a player who has a chance, if he continues to improve like he has, to maybe play somewhere beyond college.”
