Barack Obama's Brother-In-Law Hired as Oregon State head coach?

You've gotta be kidding, right?

Well, I'm not.

After all the twists and turns this coaching search has taken over the last few months, it looks like Bobby D has finally settled on Craig Robinson, head coach at Brown University. Both Fox Sports and  CBS Sports have confirmed the hire, although nothing has been said out of the OSU Athletic office.

And it just so happens that Craig Robinson's sister is married to Presidential Candidate Barack Obama, making Robinson Obama's brother-in-law.

Robinson led Brown University to an 19-10 mark and an 11-3 Ivy League record this past season, his second with the school.

Again, it's not official yet, but it looks like we may have a new head coach coming to Corvallis.

GO BEAVERS!
