The city of Stillwater let out a collective sigh of relief followed by floor slaps and fist pumps Monday; Mike Boynton is sticking around.
Boynton agreed to an extension through the 2027-28 season that included a pay raise to $3 million annually. Here are three thoughts on the topic, keeping in mind that some of this is probably too soon to have a solid opinion on until further details of the contract come out, like the buyout, the bonuses, etc.
1. The Terms
I saw some Travis Ford PTSD folk saying the 7 years were too many, but I think the 7-year, $3 million per is a great sweet spot.
