The 5'11", 190-pound running back is the No. 57 running  back in the country according to 247Sports. He turned down some offers from powers like Miami, Louisville and Arizona.

The Gators offered Davis five days ago as well so it's pretty safe to say that Davis is the official replacement for Lemons.
