Robinson was introduced as Oregon State’s 20th head men’s basketball coach after two seasons at Brown, where he won more games (30) in his first two years than any other head coach in Brown basketball history.

The first-year Oregon State head coach led a turnaround for the Brown program, guiding the squad to a school-record 19 victories during his second season. Robinson also led the Bears to their fourth ever post-season tournament berth, competing in the inaugural College Basketball Invitational. Brown posted an 11-3 Ivy League mark, second best in school history and good for second place in the conference standings.
