It hit me halfway through his press conference. Maybe it was this quote from new Oklahoma State men’s basketball coach Mike Boynton.
“This is about these guys, every one of them. They know that I care about them and I love them, they know that I will push them as hard as I can to make them better and they respect that about me. They let me coach them hard because they know that I care.”
Or maybe it was this one.
“(Mike Holder and I) do share a lot of values though; that it’s about these guys, first and foremost, and that it’s our job to help them achieve their goals, whatever they may be.
