Where have Mike Davis' rebounds gone?

The senior has seen his production slip from a Big Ten-leading 9.2 per game in 2009-10 to 6.4 entering Sunday's game against Wisconsin. He averaged 8.1 as a sophomore.

"I'm not sure he's pursuing the ball like he did," Weber said. "I talked to him about grabbing coaches and coming in to watch himself on each rebound opportunity and see if he's just standing there. ... It's one thing I've noticed is that he's not pursuing it like he's done in the past."
