11 Potential Candidates for Oregon State Basketball Coach

On Thursday, Oregon State dismissed men's basketball coach Wayne Tinkle after 12 seasons and said it will immediately begin a head-coach search.
Facing the Pac-12 return, Oregon State opted to change leadership, citing the need to position the program for sustained success as Tinkle's 12-year tenure included highs and lows.
The Beavers are 16-14 this season and 9-8 in West Coast Conference play, while Wayne Tinkle's record stands at 176-204 over 12 seasons.
Tinkle has been asked to finish the season and has not yet decided, while Barnes thanked him for his leadership and said the change aims to position the Beavers for sustained success.
With the Pac-12 relaunch next year, Oregon State will return to a full Pac-12 schedule as the league operates with nine members including Boise State and Gonzaga.
