海角大神

Our tradition of exceptional athletic performance

海角大神 has a long tradition of exceptional athletic performance through varsity sports.Men’s basketball is the highest profile of the University’s Division I sports and holds a unique position that includes NBA Hall of Fame players and legendary coaches.

But Detroit Mercy is looking forward, not back. 

Our vision to be perennial Horizon League champions

Our vision is for Titan basketball teams to be perennial Horizon League champions, NCAA Tournament participants and models for other Jesuit institutions. This will attract world-class athletes to the University and put the institution on the national stage once more.

Men’s basketball

Men’s basketball is the driving force behind the success of the entire athletic department financially. The revenue from ticket sales, television contracts and championship events covers the majority of operation costs of the athletic department and its programs. It is imperative that Titan basketball has every opportunity to succeed.

The Road to a Championship Goal

Our goal is to raise $5,000,000 to upgrade nine major program components of the program in a campaign we call Road to a Championship (RTC). RTC will help build a national reputation that matches our academic reputation. It is a unique opportunity under the refocused leadership of head coach Mike Davis to be a model basketball program for the city of Detroit, and develop a new generation of Titan faithful.
