Why did Dominic Davis change his name to Dominic Williams?
He has changed to his Mother's maiden name because Davis was his brother's father's name (his step-father), and in the state where he is from, he had to take that name. However, after he's had kids now, he stated that he didn't want them to be known as something they are not, and had his name officially changed to Williams so that his children would be Williams' also, as an homage to his mother. Obviously he doesn't care for his step father.

Dominic's career may be over as his knee is very damaged.

The referees inthe NCAA tournament have been inconsistent. It seems they like to call touch fouls and let the big men pound on each other. Greg Odom should have been called for a fragrant foul vs. Xavier. They probably would have lost the game if the foul would have been called so. A critical no call on Georgetown for traveling ended up being a victory for GT. They would have lost without it. That was a difficult call, however w/o instant replay.

How many of you are going to KC this year to watch Alex Gordon and the Royals? How many are planning vacations around it? Even Omaha will be fun to watch this year with a group of younger upcoming players on the team. What are you doing? Let us know.

Thanks for that info. I don't know if I will go to KC for a game yet because I wouldn't be able to until June or July and Gordon may not be in KC then. I hope he gets to stay in KC but being in Omaha wouldn't be the worst thing either.
