Go get him Coach Stephens!

Davis needs to be a one man band & wants to find NIL $$ somewhere.

IMO not good fit with WMU

If Davis is leaving his dad's team he is looking to transfer up to a big-time basketball school.

Not down to a MAC one like us.

He goes back to UDM to play for Dad-with brother.

Good for him, hope he has a great season!

The rest of the story …… NIL $$$$

Antoine Davis opts to return to Detroit instead of transferring, agrees to NIL deal potentially worth 6 figures | Zagsblog

How pathetic is to see the head coach (daddy) just talk about how is son is going to be focusing on setting new "individual" NCAA records. Oh ya, he mention the most important thing is the NCAA tournament. But after reading the previous, does anyone even believe that? How would you like to me a team mate of this guy playing for his daddy?

Quote:Under the deal, the company will produce custom limited edition GlowBalls for Davis for the 2022-23 season. Antoine is creating a custom logo for the GlowBalls, and has agreed to donate from the product sales to the Detroit Mercy athletic program.
“They’re going to give him like 20,000 balls just to sell, and then he’s going to give a percentage to his teammates,” Mike said, adding that his son could potentially make up to six figures in total.
“Yes,” Mike said.
“His NIL is like the real NIL because he has to sell balls. He has to sell that basketballs that he wants to share [the income] with his team and with the other athletes on the campus, too. That’s the biggest part of that deal.”
He added: “His image will be on there [the balls], like maybe all-time 3-point leader for freshmen in the history of college basketball. He basically has to have his likeness on there.”

Haven't kept up with all the NIL news. Is this typical? It's so weird. He has to sell stuff??

NIL is SUPPOSED to be Quid Pro Quo.
