Early life

Davis earned twenty scholarship offers from major universities for football but opted to pursue basketball in college instead. [1]

College career

Davis played sparingly as a freshman at Ole Miss, averaging 1.9 points and 6.9 minutes per game. Coach Andy Kennedy's advice was to become a ball-getter and he improved markedly as a sophomore, becoming one of the most improved players in all of college basketball, and scoring 30 points on 6-for-7 3-pointers in an NIT win over Syracuse. [1] He averaged 14.9 points and 5.3 rebounds per game as a sophomore. In his junior season, Davis led the team in scoring with 13.8 points per game, while contributing 6.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game. [2]

After the season, coach Kennedy was fired and Kermit Davis, who was named SEC coach of the year in 2019, was tapped as the new coach. As a senior, Davis posted 15.2 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game while shooting his best 3-point percentage and free throw percentage of his career at 37.1% and 77.2% respectively. [1] He was named SEC player of the week after scoring 27 points and pulling down 12 rebounds, in a win over Auburn on January 9, 2019. Davis was named to the Second-team All-SEC. [3] During his career at Ole Miss, Davis led the team to the NCAA tournament for the ninth time in school history.
