There were two pieces of good news for Oregon State men's basketball that came out this week, both of which address the Beavers' backcourt situation.
One was as expected and hoped, though no surgery is ever a sure thing, as the Tinkle clan shared that sophomore to be guard Tres Tinkle's planned surgery on the foot he fractured late in the season went well, and recovery is on schedule.
Head Coach Wayne Tinkle also made a move to address the back-court void left by the departure of Derrick Bruce last week, signing JC transfer guard Ronnie Stacy.
