Davis was the 173rd ranked player, the seventh-ranked running back and 29th best player in the Class of 2018. He will have to compete with the Miami football team’s incumbent starter at running back Travis Homer, Homer’s backup DeeJay Dallas and classmate, five-star running back Lorenzo Lingard to earn playing time.
Despite Davis’ lofty ranking in the Class of 2018 if the three players ahead of him on the depth chart stay healthy, Davis could be a good candidate to redshirt this season.
Under the new redshirt rule, Davis will have the opportunity to play in four games.
