Monson will be 63 before next season starts. I believe that he is done or very close to it. |

Hadn’t heard it was official and might be a hold up due to AD leaving. Will be interested to see how he does. The way these coaching changes happen sucks for fans, but I don’t really blame the coaches. Have to get your seat before the coaching carousel stops spinning. I didn’t fault Smith for leaving just for the crappy, sleazy way he handled things on way out. FYI the top players that go into portal have a pretty good idea where they are going to end up before an officially declaring. That probably shouldn’t bother me more than the coaches’ high jinx, but for some reason it does. |

Calipari to Arkansas is gonna start a big coaching carousel. Maybe by the time it stops spinning Wayne is somewhere else. Hey, we can hope.

Unfortunately that carousel world have to spin and stop a long time to get to the point OSU ephod be stepping on! Plus... it requires a school wanting WT or a buyout. Is either truly possible?? |

If Tinkle were canned he'd probably get a job in short order, depending on the timing it could take a year if few teams are hiring. If he wants to go elsewhere, if I read this right, his buyout is only 750k right now (or very soon). It may not be a P6 team that hires him, but someone will look at what he's done at Montana, AND what he's done at OSU compared to his predecessors, and want him. My wild guess is that IF Barnes wanted him gone that buyout could be negotiated down or spread out over a couple of years. |

My wild guess is that IF Barnes wanted him gone that buyout could be negotiated down or spread out over a couple of years. I like WT, based on what I have seen at a distance, and the couple of times I have interacted with him. That said, after 10 years anywhere, sometimes it is good for the coach, as well as the team, to make a change. We can discuss ad infinitum all of the reasons OSU basketball has not had consistent success while WT has been at the helm, but at the end of the day, we have little to lose, and maybe some to gain, by a change of scenery, so to speak.
I know some will say be careful what you wish for, but I would argue it isn't helping anyone at this point having WT hang around, given the transfer portal, resources and other issues we face. I could be wrong, I just don't see the kind of devotion/ passion toward WT from the players we would need to elevate the program, because they like/ respect him that much. Could we get an even worse coach after WT? Of course, but I don't see us having any momentum/ upside by him staying. Would love to be wrong on this one!

Oregon State's buyout of the contract is $8.7 million, as far as I know. It would be crazy for anyone but Tinkle, though, to be able to get a team together for next year in the next 3-4 weeks. |

I was assuming it'd be paid for by the other school. Tinkle will probably not be able to put a team together in 3-4 weeks. More like 2-4 months. I think Ibekwe was a September signee back in the day. This is probably a bad year to bring in a new coach. There's lots of uncertainty with the future of the program. By this time next year they should have a better idea of what the future Pac may or may not look like. That could dramatically affect the applicant pool. |

Coaches all over recruit a whole new team or good portions of one all the time now. And not sure where the 3-4 weeks came from. Kids can sign after the portal deadline for students entering it.

That could dramatically affect the applicant pool. However long it takes, Tinkle needs to do well in the portal before nest year starts because right now it looks like he is fixing to go from last in the Pac 12 this year (by three games!!) to last in the WCC next year, and that's a bad, bad fall. I think the mass exodus that the men's basketball is experiencing has little to do with the lack of a power conference and a lot to do with a lack of faith in Tinkle as a coach. |

You cannot contract recruits from May 1st to September. It is either a dead period or a quiet period between now and then. That is where the 3-4 weeks comes from. Tinkle has 3-4 weeks to figure out a plan. If things do not pan out in the next 3-4 weeks, Tinkle has to figure it out in September, because that is when the contact period reopens. |
