OSU basketball: Mike Boynton prepping for intense February diet

STILLWATER — Thursday was Mike Boynton’s last day of freedom.

With Friday marking the beginning of February, Oklahoma State’s basketball coach will begin his annual monthlong challenge of eating only fruits, nuts and vegetables, with the exception of the occasional protein shake. Additionally, Boynton will be giving up Twitter for February.

That makes Jan. 31 a big day for Boynton as he enjoys a final full meal, which his wife, Jenny, handles.

“My wife’s really good about making sure that tonight I get nice and stuffed, so Jan. 31 and March 1 are her favorite two days on the calendar,” Boynton said Thursday.
