Each improved both on and off the court as they matured. Even though he earned second team All-Big 10 as a sophomore, Mike Davis had by far his best season as a senior. He attributes it to a willingness to listen to his coaches and a dedication to making needed improvement. http://illinois.scout.com/2/1054329.html 2047 Jack Lyman http://illinois.scout.com/2/1054329.html Wed, 09 Mar 2011 02:00:00 GMT 0 169 Illinois illinois If the Fighting Illini basketball team wishes to achieve its season goals, a four man senior class must play its best ball the rest of the season. Forward Mike Davis worked hard in the off season to improve his game and has done so. He hit a slump against UIC but has bounced back well since. http://illinois.scout.com/2/1035511.html 2047 Jack Lyman http://illinois.scout.com/2/1035511.html Fri, 31 Dec 2010 16:00:00 GMT 1 169 Illinois illinois The NBA has a process athletes can follow to discover their pro potential prior to the draft. If those uncertain to be lottery picks follow the process laid out, they can receive a proper evaluation and still retain their college eligibility. Illini forward Mike Davis followed that path, found out what he needs to work on, and is now dedicated to having a great senior season. http://illinois.scout.com/2/969378.html 2047 Jack Lyman http://illinois.scout.com/2/969378.html Wed, 12 May 2010 00:49:00 GMT 1 169 Illinois illinois The juniors on the Fighting Illini basketball team had to make a major adjustment this season. They all needed to advance their games, especially without the strong senior leadership of Chester Frazier. They had to take on more responsibility, and it took awhile to acclimate. Junior Mike Davis played well, but he realizes he didn't have the season he expected. http://illinois.scout.com/2/963325.html 2047 Jack Lyman http://illinois.scout.com/2/963325.html Sun, 18 Apr 2010 15:25:00 GMT 1 169 Illinois illinois The Illinois basketball team needs its upperclassmen to play a leading role to have a successful season. The four freshmen will provide a big boost in energy and athleticism, but a group of five juniors must carry the brunt of the load. Power forward Mike Davis improved tremendously last season, but more is needed from him. http://illinois.scout.com/2/915962.html 2047 Jack Lyman http://illinois.scout.com/2/915962.html Wed, 04 Nov 2009 01:32:00 GMT 1 169 Illinois illinois The Fighting Illini basketball team has a strong nucleus of players returning for the upcoming season, and four talented freshmen have been added. But for this team to challenge for championships and make a deep run in the NCAA tournament, the upperclassmen will need to lead the way. Mike Davis is one of those who must have a big year. http://illinois.scout.com/2/901349.html 2047 Jack Lyman http://illinois.scout.com/2/901349.html Mon, 21 Sep 2009 14:08:00 GMT 1 169 Illinois illinois One of the big reasons for Illinois' success in basketball this year is the play of their sophomores. In particular, power forward Mike Davis led the Big 10 in rebounding. Davis has improved greatly since a tentative freshman year. But according to his coach, he still has tremendous room for growth. http://illinois.scout.com/2/845625.html 2047 Jack Lyman http://illinois.scout.com/2/845625.html Mon, 09 Mar 2009 14:56:00 GMT 1 169 Illinois illinois The Fighting Illini basketball team will be young at the power forward spot this year, but there is talent and experience available. One of those in the mix for the starting job is Mike Davis, the 6'-9" sophomore with the excellent leaping ability and feathery touch. He is only strength and consistency away from being a top asset for the team. http://illinois.scout.com/2/809565.html 2047 Jack Lyman http://illinois.scout.com/2/809565.html Sat, 08 Nov 2008 15:41:00 GMT 1 169 Illinois illinois Steve Davis, father of Mike Davis, the newest basketball commit, tells us why his son wanted to play for Illinois.
