Mike Davis son Antoine is scoring like crazy, he has 39 points and 8-13 on 3s. He became their all time leading scorer. I'm pretty sure this was the kid who said "Daddy, are we ever gonna beat Kentucky?" back in 2004. Time flies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detroit is 5-7 but their first nine games were on the road. 3-0 in Horizon, but had two home conference games canceled due to Covid that won’t be made up. Mike won the conference and/or conference tournament all six years at Texas Southern. He got a pay raise (making around $400k vs less than $300k at TS) but Detroit’s a tough gig, especially with his recruiting base in the South. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davis even with some of his warts is still a pretty solid coach. He isn't really a big program coach but he is perfect for places like Detriot Mercy and Texas Southern, he will always have success at schools on their level. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't really a big program coach but he is perfect for places like Detriot Mercy and Texas Southern, he will always have success at schools on their level. I have a lot of respect for what he did at TS, a HBC with a shoestring athletic budget. Their entire non- conference would be paycheck road games against a lot of P5 schools. To manage a team through a tough winless non-con and then pull together to win the conference requires special skill. This is from the article announcing his hiring at Detroit. Meanwhile, Davis annually put the Tigers through one of the toughest non-conference schedules in the country. TSU began last season 0-13 with losses to Gonzaga, Ohio State, Syracuse and Kansas before winning the SWAC's automatic bid to the tournament. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
