Coaching career

Davenport began his coaching career as a graduate assistant coach under Denny Crum at Louisville in 1984. He then moved on to VCU for one season as an assistant to Mike Pollio. He returned to the Louisville area as a high school head coach at Ballard High School where he'd stay for 10 seasons from 1986–1996. Davenport won a 1988 state championship team and later coached future NBA players DeJuan Wheat and Allan Houston.[1] Davenport returned to the Cardinals under Crum in 1996, and would stay on as an assistant coach for Rick Pitino until 2005, when he accepted the head coaching job at Bellarmine.[2]

Since joining the Knights, Davenport has become the all-time wins leader at the school, and has led the team to six Great Lakes Valley Conference regular season titles and five conference tournament titles, along with 12 NCAA Division II Men's Basketball Tournament which includes four Final Four appearances (2011, 2012, 2015, 2017), and the 2011 national title.[3][4]
