Holgorsen high-fived Boykin because QB ‘made a hell of a play’

FORT WORTH, Texas — So captivating were the repeated great escapes of Trevone Boykin that even the opposing coach offered a mid-game high-five.

“He was right there and I just saw him make everyone of our players miss,” Holgorsen said after Thursday night’s 40-10 loss, still marveling at Boykin’s athleticism.
