Oklahoma State guard Dee Mitchell was working at Walmart in Stillwater on Sunday afternoon when coach Mike Boynton and his staff suddenly showed up in the back hallways of the store.
Boynton and his quarantined players, there virtually in a Zoom call, were there to officially award Mitchell a scholarship — something that brought the former walk-on to tears.
Nobody works harder than Dee Mitchell. He joined the Cowboys as a walk-on this day in 2019, and is paying his way through school thanks to his job at @Walmart.
But @thacoachmike has a surprise for Dee .
