David Taylor answers Oklahoma State fans who booed Dee Lockett
David Taylor addressed the booing aimed at Dee Lockett during Sunday's 165 pound match, per MatBoy. GlobalWrestOrder called Taylor an incredible leader of men and ripped the Cowboy Invitational crowd. Christian Pyles, asked why no footage of the match is circulating, said media were not allowed to film it.
Absolutely disgusting bottom of the barrel behavior from the OSU fans that booed Dee Lockett at the Cowboy Invitational.
Why it matters: Taylor is publicly siding with his wrestler against his own home crowd in his program's first weeks.
