Larry A. Davis, the former University of Cincinnati associate head basketball coach, was forced out of his job this September because he was accused of an assault on an airplane in 2017.
Davis, 62, of Fort Wright, faces a plea hearing Thursday on a federal misdemeanor assault charge at the federal courthouse in Charlotte, North Carolina. He's accused of assaulting another passenger on a plane from Milwaukee to Charlotte.
UC previously called Davis' departure a retirement. But in a statement Tuesday, UC athletic director Mike Bohn said that UC had "commenced the process for separation" before the resignation.
