Craig Robinson: "Go Beavers!" On National TV

Ha ha ha... didn't see this live, but it's pretty sweet. Craig Robinson (OSU's new coach and Michelle Obama's brother) introduced her at the convention last night and gave a nice plug to the Beavers. Way to promote to a national audience!



Scroll forward to the 3:00 mark if you are in a hurry.

Seriously though... I wonder how much his connection to Obama (assuming Obama wins the election) will help his recruiting? My gut tells me not much, but maybe it would help him start some conversations with parents. If nothing else, it won't hurt him at all probably, unless Obama were to become really unpopular as president. But either way... it wouldn't be fair to attribute his recruiting successes to his bro-in-law. He's already brought in some good players and it would be great to see OSU get out of the Pac-10 cellar.

EDIT: Missed this too... Deadspin has a post about it:

That means lots of attention for the Beavs... pretty cool.

NICE.... haha and the orange tie to boot... Well done Craig... well done...
