Height: 6’3”

Weight: 235 pounds

High School: Norman North, Norman, OK.

Position at Penn: LB

Recruited By: Stanford, Western Kentucky, Nevada, Ohio, New Mexico

The Recruiting Moment: Was committed to the Stanford until November when head coach Jim Harbaugh dismissed his linebackers coach. Davis was offered the opportunity to walk on, but decided to come to Penn.

The Skinny:, Davis, who is listed as three-star recruit on Rivals, is another all-around prospect who had to play 10 positions this past season. A 1^st team all-State punter and 2^nd team all-State as a linebacker, Davis will bring great his great physical tools to the Penn defense. He runs a 4.53 40 and has a max bench press of 300 pounds. One of his great strengths is the “ability to move sideline-to-sideline,” and intangibles. Davis will however need to gain some experience and work on his reads.

The Quote: “I don’t regret [playing multiple positions in high school]. I just wanted to do what’s best for the team, but at the same time it would’ve been nice to focus on one position.”
