Downey Stands Tall For South Carolina

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Even while taking in a U2 concert during the offseason, South Carolina coach Darrin Horn couldn't help but think of Devan Downey.
"One of the things that crossed my mind - and there was no doubt in my mind - was that every guy in that deal was born to be doing what he's doing," Horn said.

South Carolina coach Darrin Horn is happy to have Devan Downey back this season. And as Horn sees it, Downey is doing exactly what he was born to do, too. For now, that destiny is playing a fearless brand of basketball at South Carolina. Downey is a 5-foot-9 (and that may be a little generous) point guard who relishes the underdog role for a team that has made only one NCAA tournament appearance in the past 11 seasons. He's not afraid to carry a team that needs a nudge off the bubble and into the NCAA tournament.
"It's like little man's syndrome," Downey said. "God gave me my height and speed, and that's what I'm born to be."

I wish he would have come here out of high school. It sucks that we only have one more year with him.
