After a pair of tremendous seasons at Temple University, Re Davis \u201918 decided to step up his game, transferring to Vanderbilt University for a world-class education and to compete at the highest level of college football.<\/p>\n
\u201cVandy was more so for the academic piece,\u201d Davis explained, but that\u2019s not all. \u201cI transferred to be able to compete in the SEC and test my true skills, test myself as a football player. Guys in this league are getting looks every day at the NFL level.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe team embraced me as a transfer,\u201d Davis said. \u201cThey took me in and I\u2019m able to get used to the speed of things at the SEC level. It’s meetings, nutrition, training, and weight room. We have a young team,\u201d he continued. \u201cFocused on getting better right now, being 1% better every day.\u201d Now that\u2019s a motto to live by, yet Davis\u2019 goals go beyond college football. \u201cObviously I would love to make it to the league. For me, it’s about getting my degree. Looking back at high school, I was not a guy who had the grades and didn\u2019t have the scores, I never thought I\u2019d be playing Division 1 football, but now I have achieved the highest education possible.\u201d<\/p>\n
Harkening back to his days at Trinity-Pawling, Davis said, \u201cA lot of people doubted us, Coratti\u2019s 2015 team that won it all after starting 0-2.\u201d Davis is facing another bump in the road, as a toe injury has him sidelined for the rest of the season after starting the year as the Vanderbilt Commodores feature running back. Regardless of his injury, if the past is any indication, don\u2019t doubt Re\u2019Mahn Davis.<\/p>\n
