There's no such thing as a "most improved team" award in the Horizon League, but let's give it to Detroit anyway.

Of course the Titans have plenty of room for improvement under second-year head coach Ray McCallum. They have posted back-to-back 7-23 seasons and haven't finished above .500 since 2003-04 (18-13).

"We're very excited about going into our second year," McCallum told the Detroit Free Press.

It's the second year in the system for Division I transfers Eli Holman and Chase Simon, but their first year on the floor after sitting out the 2008-09 campaign. Xavier Keeling also returns to the court after missing all but seven games last year with a foot injury.

Holman followed McCallum from Indiana.
