John-Michael Wright raised his hand. If nobody was going to ask anything, why not him?
At Steve Lutz’s introductory press conference on Thursday, after he was publicly named the 21st men’s basketball coach in Oklahoma State history, questions were taken in front of donors, fans and players.
Three questions came from the media, who knew it would have an opportunity to talk with Lutz afterward, so there wasn’t a sense of urgency to fire away. Wright saw this and raised his hand, asking for the microphone. All eyes — including Lutz’s — shifted from one half of the room to the other, all focused on Wright.
