Monday afternoon, Mike Boynton, the new Oklahoma State men’s head basketball coach, will be officially introduced.

There has been a lot of backlash (and some approval) from the Oklahoma State fanbase on Twitter.

Mike Holder released a statement on the out-of-the-blue hiring.

"At the end of the day, we view coaching from the same perspective," Holder said. "All of the qualities that I value resonate in him. He said one thing that really stuck with me, that coaching is about leadership and family, and I agree with that wholeheartedly. I know I'm proud to have him as the leader of our basketball program, and think once people get to know him they'll feel the same way.
