Rice Green Knights Name New Coordinator
The Rice Green Knights, a D-II program in South Burlington, have promoted assistant coach Michael Davis to defensive coordinator. Davis spent three seasons developing talent and helping the team improve its record. As a coordinator, he will oversee the defense and play a key role in game planning. The move is seen as a significant step in the program's rebuilding efforts, following a 2-8 season in 2025. Recruiting has been a focus for the Green Knights, with Davis playing a key role in identifying and developing young talent. The promotion is expected to have a positive impact on the team's competitiveness, particularly in the South Burlington area, where the Green Knights will face stiff competition from D-I programs. The team is preparing for the upcoming season and will hold its annual summer camp in late July.
