STILLWATER — It's hard to keep a smile off Mike Holder's face when he talks about his basketball coach.
Oklahoma State's athletic director had plenty of reasons to be giddy this week, but the corners of his mouth are constantly perked up when the words coming out of it are about Mike Boynton. Wednesday, OSU announced a six-year contract for Boynton worth about $11.5 million, a two-year extension on his original five-year, $6 million deal.
The agreement comes in the wake of Boynton leading the Cowboys to a 21-15 record and the cusp of the NCAA Tournament in his first season as a head coach.
