One that would carry Grizz games so they didn't have to depend on networks like FS1 and now Bally. So they were looking for additional content and asked the Tigers and the Nashville Predators if they would be interested in that concept. Both said no. I think that was a mistake for the Tigers. And the Preds too. That channel would now be a big success. Just think of the coverage and interest that would have produced for each program across the state and region. And probably several other teams would have joined too. It may have been tremendous PR for the university.

“I’ve been working, trying to get DeAndre (Williams) and Lester (Quinones) to stay,” he said. “I keep in touch with them all day. I don’t want to say anything (prematurely). I’m optimistic.”

Envisioning a starting lineup that could potentially include himself, Murphy (an AAC all-freshman selection two seasons ago), Quinones and Williams, Davis sees parallels in how the Grizzlies line up.

“Les is gonna be Bane. DeAndre is gonna be Jaren Jackson. I’m gonna be Ja Morant. Caleb can be Dillon Brooks and, then, whoever we have at the five spot will be Steven Adams,” said Davis.
