Mike Boynton Instilling Confidence in Keylan Boone
Keylan Boone’s 3-pointer against Texas Tech on Feb. 22 was the first basket he had made in a game in 30 days.
Boone played in 13 minutes that night, coming off back-to-back games where he didn’t even get called off Mike Boynton’s bench. It was a big bucket that ended an 8-0 run Tech had at the start of the second half and spurred the Pokes to an overtime victory.
Boone got some shots up in Gallagher-Iba Arena after the game. Boone said he left GIA about 11:30 that night, planning to walk home. It happened to be the same time OSU coach Mike Boynton was leaving. Boynton offered to take Boone home.
