South Carolina, Boynton’s Alma Mater, Has Coaching Vacancy

For the first time since Mike Boynton has been a head coach, South Carolina has a coaching vacancy.

South Carolina fired Frank Martin on Monday. Martin had run the program for 10 years. It’s relevant because Boynton played for the Gamecocks from 2000 to 2004 before also spending time in Columbia as an assistant. This time of year, links to coaches and vacancies are commonplace. It’s a part of the news cycle. Boynton got mentioned for LSU’s opening on Sunday (a program with more NCAA issues than OSU). But South Carolina having such a personal tie with Boynton will likely have some Oklahoma State fans sweating.
