Central Michigan University Athletics is parting ways with Head Men’s Basketball Coach Keno Davis after nine years at the helm Zyzelewski Family Associate Vice President/Athletic Director Amy Folan announced on Monday, April 5.
Under Davis, who started in Mt. Pleasant in 2012, the CMU Chippewas went 142-143 overall and 62-94 in the Mid-American Conference, with a MAC Championship in 2015. His teams also appeared in the postseason four times – NIT (2015), CollegeInsider.com tournament (2016 and 2018) and the College Basketball Invitational (2019).
“I am extremely grateful to Keno for the impact he has made on our student-athletes and the greater CMU community,” Folan said. “Decisions like this are always difficult. However, after spending the last few months evaluating all aspects of our program, I believe it is necessary and appropriate to make a change in leadership at this time to achieve the goals we have for men’s basketball.”
CMU will launch a national search for a new head men’s basketball coach immediately with the assistance of DHR International.
