Mike Davis Commits To South Carolina Gamecocks
South Carolina landed an excellent back in Davis.
Davis was committed to Florida for several months before decommitting and opening the recruiting process back up. Davis was thought to be favoring Georgia and South Carolina. This commitment was expected, as earlier in the dayGeorgia accepted a commitment from North Carolina running back Todd Gurley. Georgia's running back class was full, and Davis is off to South Carolina, where he will look to compete with junior Marcus Lattimore.
Davis is a tough, physical runner with decent speed and a solid feel for the game.
