With Central Michigan men’s basketball's 20th win in the 2017-18 season on March 12 against Fort Wayne, head coach Keno Davis earned a $5,000 bonus, according to his contract.
The CMU athletic department reported the money would go back to the university.
“I don’t (know where the money’s going),” Davis said. “I haven’t had that conversation with our administration.”
At the end of the regular season, the Chippewas (21-14) owned 18 wins, but a first-round victory in the Mid-American Conference Tournament pushed Davis’ squad to 19.
“When we were talking with a couple weeks left in the season, we got calls about interest in Central Michigan playing in the CIT,” Davis said.
