WR Kyle Davis of Decatur, GA announced Monday night he has dropped his 10th month old commitment to USC and reopened his recruiting. Davis put the word out via Twitter: “after a long talk with my family, I’m officially decommitting and opening my recruiting back up. I will not take any interviews.”
Davis committed to USC during a camp last July becoming the Gamecocks’ first commitment for the 2016 class.
“I had no idea. It just came to me,” Davis said at the time. “I talked to my dad and he said, ‘Go ahead, you’ve got the green light.’ It was my decision. I’m proud of it. They’re on the come-up. A national championship is in the near future, I think. It’s a nice town. Everything is right there in walking distance. It was nice. I love it. My goal is to get to the league, and Spurrier puts people in the league. That was a big thing. When I got here it just sealed the deal.”
The deal became unsealed over several months as the Gamecocks struggled to a 7-6 season, questions about Steve Spurrier’s coaching future hung over the program, and more major programs jumped in on Davis who did not shut down his recruiting after committing.
If anything, he ramped things up making multiple visits to Georgia, Auburn and other programs around the SEC. Davis’s offer list has grown to include Alabama, Florida, Miami, Florida State, Cal, Louisville, Tennessee, Michigan State, LSU, Ohio State and others reflecting his growth into a nationally acclaimed prospect.
Davis, who plans to be an early graduate, had 64 catches for 1200 yards last season.
