He has 2-3 open official OV's to take and he could have joined his buddy Travis on this visit, but he didn't. Plus he hasn't really tweeted about USF in about three weeks. IMO, there is no way this kid is coming here. I think he already "unofficially" committed to Memphis. Memphis over USF? Hard to believe, and I'm surprised others aren't chasing him. The only knock is size, and it looks like he played some pretty bad teams, based on his highlight reel. Lots of undersized arm tacklers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrollwood Day's Robert Davis, Hillsborough County's all-time leading rusher, says he just got an offer from #USF. #taggarteffec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'll tell you something when Jim Harbaugh's former RB Coach decides to make an offer to a RB, I think it's noteworthy. The reason Davis has a tough decision is because I believe Memphis has been calling him and recruiting him this whole time. That in itself is not a coincidence. Justin Fuente was Gary Patterson's RB Coach at TCU and he also can recognize RB talent when he sees it. The problem is, USF hardly gave Robert the time of day under Skip Holtz and the offer from Willie Taggart is coming kind of late in the game. It'll boil down to whether he really wants to stay home, or whether he is loyal to the team and staff that have been recruiting him since the beginning. Both are powerful arguments. In the end I hope what he comes to realize is that Willie Taggart's close connection with the Harbaughs means that Robert might have a little bit clearer path to the NFL once the time comes for that.

He was on campus for the letitfly 7 on 7 competition at USF this weekend, but it wasn't an official visit. I feel much more confident about Kemp coming than Davis, and I don't feel very confident in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they would have backed off Webb unless they had 2 in front of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just smokes everyone on the field.This guy would be a huge threat to the outside, burn defenses for easy 5-10+ yard pick ups ending out of bounds. I hope he chooses USF. If you have this guy in with a 2 back formation and some sort of read on the defense I imagine that would be really effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they've given Taggart an indication, so he can focus on other areas of need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If speed were the only factor, Hopkins would have been our leading rusher last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he was actually blossoming into a go-to WR before his injury. I think he's back next year, so I'd expect even better things. Davis looks like a Warrick Dunn type. I'd love to have him.
