Clemson has high hopes for freshman Fred Davis.
The former 5-star shined on defense, offense and special teams for Trinity Christian Academy in Jacksonville, Fla. He has good size for a corner at 6-foot-1 to go with plenty of length, speed and athleticism. Davis used those traits to excel in coverage and has great instincts that he uses to attack the ball when it is in the air.
However, the Clemson coaches were hoping to bring him along a little slower this spring, especially with Derion Kendrick back as a starter at one corner spot and Mario Goodrich and Andrew Booth on the other side.
