One of those groups who could be labeled one day as the “foundation class” for everything head coach Wayne Tinkle may someday accomplish at Oregon State, the loaded recruiting haul of three four-star prospects, which includes two coaches sons (Thompson Jr. and Tinkle) and a local product in Eubanks, was a complete game-changer for the program. While their careers are still ongoing, Eubanks, Tinkle and Thompson Jr. have all already emerged as potential NBA prospects, who may bring the Beavers back to the NCAA Tournament after last year’s 5-27 season. Some less-heralded additions like Gligorije Rakocevic and Kendal Manuel round-out this group with a solid core.
