It looks like Wayne Davis has a new home.

Just over two weeks after announcing his intent to transfer from Ohio State, Davis now has a destination. The former Buckeye defensive back will enroll at James Madison University and will be eligible to play immediately, according to Greg Madia of Rivals.com.

From Rivals.com:

Davis will transfer to JMU, according to his high school coach Hank Sawyer at Lake Taylor in Norfolk.

“He’s coming,” Sawyer said Friday by phone. “They got to make sure the paperwork is straight, which it is because he got his release from Ohio State.

“The good thing about James Madison is it’s an awesome school and an awesome program and the fact that they’re [FCS] means he’s eligible right away.”

Davis arrived at Ohio State as a four-star commit, but rarely saw the field in his two years in Columbus. He redshirted his freshman year, and played just 10 snaps on defense in two games last season.
