Mike Boynton to Host Basketball Recruits During Oklahoma State Homecoming
It's time for "America's Greatest" homecoming in Stillwater as Oklahoma State is set to host Cincinnati. It's not just a big weekend for the Oklahoma State football program, though, as Mike Boynton and the basketball program are hosting some of their high-end targets.
The list of visitors includes two five-star talents, one in the 2025 class and one in the 2026 class, while also including two four-star talents. Here are some details on the visitors.

Joson Sanon, 2025: The five-star forward is the No. 10 player in the country according to 247Sports composite rankings. The forward was offered by Oklahoma State on Sept. 21 of this year.
Sanon would be one of the best recruits Oklahoma State has landed in program history and would be close to the composite ranking of Cade Cunningham, who was the top player in his class at the time.
Bryce Heard, 2025: Oklahoma State is Heard's most recent offer, as they offered on Oct. 4. Conveniently, the four-star combo guard is from Montverde Academy, the same school Cunningham went to before committing to the Cowboys.
Heard is quickly making his way to Stillwater after being offered, which is a good sign for Boynton and company as they try and make their case to land the guard from Chicago.
Jeremiah Green, 2025: Green and the Cowboys have some history. Oklahoma State offered green in September of 2021. Now, a couple of years later, Green is finally making his official visit to Stillwater.
The four-star guard, according to 247Sports, is the top player in Texas in his class. He's the No. 7 point guard in his class, too. The 6-foo-3 guard has taken three other official visits this month, taking trips to Texas A&M, TCU and West Virginia.
Jalen Montonati, 2026: The five-star forward from Owasso, OK has plenty of great offers, but Stillwater provides the opportunity to stay close to home. Oklahoma State offered over a year ago, but Montonati has since received offers from Kansas, Arkansas, Michigan and others.
The top talent for Oklahoma in the 2026 recruiting class and the eighth-best player nationally would be an incredible get for Boynton and his staff, which has been incredible at recruiting since he arrived in Stillwater. The incredible offers will continue coming for Montonati, so beginning a solid relationship early will be important for the Cowboys.
Boden Williams, 2026: The 6-foot-1 combo guard was offered by the Cowboys earlier this month and is joining his teammate in Montonati on the trip to Stillwater this weekend. While he remains unranked by 247Sports, there's plenty of time for the 2026 guard.
To see the Cowboys getting active recruiting future classes is great. It'll be important to be a top-recruiting basketball program as the Big 12 continues to bring in more solid basketball programs to compete.
In potentially adding Gonzaga to the Big 12 (read more here), the Cowboys will need to continue bringing in as much talent as possible to remain a solid team in a conference that's only improving and getting deeper.
Nonetheless, it's a big weekend for Boynton and his staff in Stillwater this weekend, and there's plenty of opportunity that comes with it.
