Michelle Obama's Brother Fired!

Craig Robinson who until monday was the head coach of the mens' basketball team in Oregon, is also the brother to the first lady of the united states of America.


 Oregon State informed Robinson of its decision Sunday night, six weeks after he completed his sixth season with an overall record of 93-104 and without a single NCAA tournament or NIT appearance. The delay in parting with Robinson puts Oregon State at a disadvantage since every major program with a vacancy has already found their coach and every other Pac-12 program has already shifted its focus toward recruiting.

 Hired to resuscitate a program that went winless in Pac-12 play the year before he arrived, Robinson initially improved the talent level at Oregon State but failed to parlay that into on-court success. The Beavers went 39-69 in the Pac-12 under Robinson and have finished better than eighth in the Pac-12 only once in six years despite the presence of talented players like Jared Cunningham, Roberto Nelson, Devon Collier and Moreland.

But the general view remains his sack is long overdue despite his brother in law being the president.
