The country's 29th-ranked cornerback and a top-10 prospect in the state of Virginia, Davis picked the Buckeyes over Virginia Tech, Michigan and a host of others.
He held 20 offers and had been predicted by many to end up at Ohio State, but most figured that decision would come after a summer-time visit to Columbus.
The visit did not happened, but Davis pulled the trigger just hours before another cornerback, Texas' Jared Mayden, was to make his decision. He was last on campus at Ohio State last September when the Buckeyes hosted Cincinnati.
The Buckeyes have taken a multi-pronged approach with Davis, as he's been recruited by Zach Smith and Kerry Coombs, with each playing a vital role in the landing the four-star. Smith made headway at Lake Taylor two years ago, and Coombs handles the cornerbacks, so the pair made sense.
