Oregon State University Men's Basketball Program Undergoes Coaching Change: Wayne Tinkle to Depart, Search for New Head Coach Begins

Oregon State University (OSU) has announced a significant change in its men's basketball program as head coach Wayne Tinkle will be parting ways with the team, according to Vice President and Director of Athletics Scott Barnes. Tinkle led the team to two NCAA Tournament appearances and notable achievements, such as winning the 2021 Pac-12 Tournament championship and reaching the Elite Eight. Under Tinkle's leadership, the team had six winning seasons. A national search for the next head coach will commence promptly, with DHR Global aiding OSU in the search process.
