Congrats to OSU (no, not that one - the one in Oregon)

[Mark Padgett]

Oregon State won the CBI championship yesterday, beating UTEP in a two out of three championship series. Obviously, you cannot put the CBI (College Basketball Invitational) in the same class as the NCAA or NIT, especially since the champion finished the season 18-18, but winning something is better than winning nothing.

OSU coach Craig Robinson is in his second year and took a 9-25 team from last year that lost all it's conference games to this in one season. Good job and maybe the future is bright for this program.

Gee - I wonder if his brother-in-law called to congratulate him? I think I heard the guy's over in Europe somewhere in some kind of meetings or something.
