Maybe Craig Robinson can solve our health care system, too...

In the Stands Report by Bookemdano: Maybe we should send Oregon State basketball coach Craig Robinson to Washington. Robinson, the brother-in-law of President Barack Obam a,just might be able to fix our health care system. He obviously can solve problems.

Look at what he accomplished tonight. He waltzed into McKale Center and unleashed his 1-3-1 zone defense on the Arizona Wildcats. The result: He completely took the Wildcats out of their offense and walked out of McKale with a 63-55 win. Mr. Robinson surveyed the situation, implemented his plan, and made sure he had all his players on board to get the job done.

Of course, he was not up against a chamber full of congressmen, instead he had only to deal with a Wildcats' basketball team that decided to aid his cause by hitting just four shots out of 23 attempts from 3-point range. Overall, the Wildcats were 19 of 48 from the field and spent a frustrating night trying to score on the visiting Beavers.

Arizona scored just 20 points in the first half. They did a little better in the second half, but OSU still managed to outscore the Wildcats, 37-35. Arizona did get Jamelle Horne untracked -- he finished with a double-double, knocking home 15 points, while grabbing 14 rebounds.

Unfortunately, guards Nic Wise and Kyle Fogg couldn't find the range in this one. Fogg was 1 for 5 and Wise 1 for 11 from the field. The Wildcats' loss to Oregon State, their second this season, dropped them back to the middle of the pack in the Pac-10 standings and with it their hopes for a Pac-10 title and an NCAA bid may have also gone out the window.
