EUGENE — While a growing number of college basketball programs add general managers to aid in the talent retention and acquisition, Oregon is keeping those responsibilities among its existing coaching and support staff.

Dana Altman said his staff of five full-time assistant coaches and two support staff members is “big enough” and that UO will not be hiring a general manager to handle the business side of the program.
