Kyle Boone wrote about the fit of Mike Boynton at Oklahoma State on Monday, and it was met with much consternation. “Remember Travis Ford!” screeches were Alamo-like in both volume and enthusiasm. Some have even noted that Boynton needs to “prove his loyalty” by coaching for less than anyone in the Big 12 for a period of time (which is hilarious and absurd).
To be sure, it’s not a completely ridiculous notion that Oklahoma State needs to start thinking about a restructuring or extension of Boynton’s five-year, $6 million contract.
Matt Norlander (shout out CBS employees) also wrote this week about the job Boynton has done in Year 1.
