In this episode, we sit down with longtime Bellarmine coach Scotty Davenport to trace the arc of a life shaped by Louisville’s energy—Derby mornings just down the street, a mother whose strength set his course, early mentors who sharpened his curiosity for the game, and the inspiration of a young Cassius Clay rising from the same hometown streets.
We explore how intellect became his edge as a high-school player, why the University of Louisville felt like the natural next step, and how he walked from graduation straight into coaching. Along the way, Coach reflects on the city’s competitive spirit, the meaning of “home” after decades rooted in one community, and—fittingly—what Kentucky Derby horse name would capture his basketball journey.
