Ann Arbor — Last month, Michigan coach Juwan Howard acknowledged he and redshirt junior center Austin Davis had talked about his future with the team.
That future became clearer on Wednesday when Howard announced Davis will be returning for his fifth and final year of eligibility.
“I gave him the news yesterday,” Howard said. “He was super excited. Just to see the smile on his face, he gave me three hugs and he held me tight, too, so that made me know from those hugs those were the feeling of a guy who is really excited about coming back and being a student-athlete here at the University of Michigan.
