Indiana University men's basketball coach Mike Davis is expected to announce at a Thursday news conference that he is stepping down at the end of the season, a source close to Davis told ESPN.com's Pat Forde.
The source said that Davis worked out terms of a buyout with school president Adam Herbert this week.
"A lot of people have said this before," Indiana athletic director Rick Greenspan told ESPN.com's Andy Katz when asked about reports of Davis' departure after the season.
ESPN.com talked to Davis on Tuesday and he said he did not know what was going to happen.
When asked Monday by reporters to explain why Indiana fans have been reluctant to fully embrace him, the coach suggested it was because he wasn't a graduate of the school.
Davis then tried to quiet speculation on Tuesday by saying he had no plans to quit this season. He also said that his job status had become too big a distraction as the Hoosiers prepare for the final weeks of the regular season.
