Missouri is hiring Kim Anderson from the SE? SW? Missouri Mules.

An alma mater hire. Defeated Metro State in the D2 Final Four on his way to a national championship last month.
That surprises me. I thought for sure that he'd get another year. Also, the timing is wrong. Beavs shouldn't have waited until May if they were going to make this move. Also, I figured that with Gary Payton Jr coming in that he had bought himself a bit more time.

Why now? I don't think it's a bad move but the AD just said he would be back.
Undiagnosed stroke?
That wasn't the AD, it was AD's evil twin?
They had to wait until the end of the Fiscal Year?

Nice of them to let all the other schools hire their new coaches first. Someone start up the 4th or 5th Ben Howland rumor mill of the spring.

Shocking after 4 CBI's in 6 years. What exactly does it take for a coach to keep his job these days?

Obviously being Obama's brother-in-law was not enough. :nod: Knowing how to lead and coach would be a good start.

Agreed, I don't think anyone would disagree here.
At this point what should they have done? Bring him back, hope it works out with naming an interim coach if he gets off to a bad start?

Should have just given him another full season at this point. Interims are unnecessary unless a situation is extraordinarily toxic, IMO. Oregon State hoops isn't toxic, it's apathetic. This is just another day in OSU basketball being woefully mismanaged. This needed to happen 7 weeks ago.
surprised no one has found a tad boyle to Oregon state story yet.

Like CVille said, should have just given him another year. Bringing in a coach now doesn't really give OSU a good chance to bring in talent. It's pretty much a wasted 1st season now for whoever they hire.

That's because Larry Eustachy is #1 on OSU's board and once he makes an 11th hour decision weighing the pros and cons of the PNW vs. Fort Collins and regrettably bolts the Ewes will make a phone call to Tad Boyle and find their replacement from just down the road in stunning Bohn fashion. Tad doesn't even have to sell his house!
agree, agree, agree, agree -- when I heard this, first thing I thought was "Seth Greenberg"

I would guess the timing is due to the donors coming up with enough to pay the $4 million buyout...

Altman would certainly win a Natty. Two cans if he plays his cards right.

Oregon St is a career killer, but they'll give whoever takes it four or five years
Honestly, I think Larry Eustachy would be an excellent choice for them. It could be argued that Eustachy has improved the CSU program since Miles left, and Miles is working miracles in fuskerland. OSU can offer a lot more money, in a better conference, with access to national television exposure.
Plus, the hilarity of Larry Eustachy being the head coach of the Beavers is too good to pass up.

If anyone could make Oregon State competitive, Eustachy would. I've analyzed his resume before, but in short his knack is taking over the most hopeless of college hoops backwaters and turning them into 20+ win teams. Oregon State would be up there with the toughest, but if he can do it at Southern Miss, CSU and Iowa State, he stands a better chance than most of pulling it off in Corvallis.
What all of those stops have in common is that if a prospect can spell SAT he can be admitted. And if he can't, that's ok too. They are willing to wait a couple years for that JUCO degree to go around the NCAA to admit.
Unfortunately for Larry, the NCAA is tightening the requirements on JUCO transfers. An associate degree in "Sports Fitness" with a D average won't qualify a guy any more.
