Asay: My conversation with D-Will

I’m just sitting here in the Portland airport, waiting for my flight to Spokane and wanted to share a few quick thoughts on Weber State’s 80-66 win last night at Portland State.
For those who know Weber State’s Daviin Davis, he is not one that people would call cocky. He’s one of the most humble people I’ve met, just one of the many high-character young men that head coach Randy Rahe and his staff have brought to Ogden.
He does, however, like to have fun and there was a classic example of that last night.
With about a minute left and WSU leading the Vikings 77-66, Davis was about to inbound the ball at midcourt, just in front of me. Before the official handed Davis the ball, D-Will put his foot up on the press table and started tying his shoe. Then he started talking to me.
“He Jasen, what’s up,” he asked.
I was a bit stunned, but answered back, “Not much. How are you?”
D-Will noticed I was working on my story for the morning paper, so he asked if I was writing a good one.
“I’m trying,” I answered, as the official stared listening to our conversation, as did two nearby Portland State players.
“Well,” Davis said, “make sure you write that they’d won 17-straight league games until we came in and beat them.”
Then Davis inbounded the ball and play resumed.
His comments kind of surprised me, as well as the other reporters on press row. After all, less than a week ago WSU trailed Northern Colorado by seven points with 45 seconds left and came back and won. But the Wildcats hung on to win, and I got to see another example of Davis having fun.
