Kyle Davis Sets Decision Date: Which School Needs 4-Star WR the Most?

Dynamic Georgia wide receiver Kyle Davis is drawing close to his second college commitment.

The 4-star prospect, who previously pledged to South Carolina, posted announcement plans on Twitter Tuesday evening. Davis will reveal his decision Oct. 23, the day of Archer High School's homecoming game.

Rated fourth nationally among players at the position in composite rankings, the 6'1 ½", 218-pound playmaker could potentially provide a top target in the passing game as a true freshman. Davis wowed at The Opening, providing further evidence of rare abilities.

We documented that performance in Bleacher Report's CFB 200 Recruiting Series:

"

Davis grades out higher than any receiver we've scouted in person after his dynamite effort at The Opening. Sure, this is based on seven-on-seven action that doesn't require competitors to block or take clobbering hits, but his skill set and athleticism are off the charts.

It was difficult to hold a conversation with analysts in attendance without Davis' name coming up, often accompanied by the words "wow" or "freak." He's more than just a workout warrior, displaying tremendously tight route running and reliable hands.

"

Davis collected 67 receptions last season, resulting in 1,183 yards and nine touchdowns. 

He admits that the national attention has created awkward moments at times, especially when unsubstantiated speculation surfaces.

“Probably people saying that I am silently committed to places. I haven’t even ever thought about committing yet to anywhere," Davis told Rusty Mansell of 247Sports.

That noise isn't likely to subside during the next two months leading up to his announcement. By then, he will be five months removed from an early South Carolina commitment.

The Gamecocks may still be under consideration given long-standing familiarity between Davis and the South Carolina staff, but our focus shifts elsewhere in the SEC when examining possible landing spots. Georgia stands out for reasons beyond regional proximity, though that won't hurt the Bulldogs' sales pitch.

Head coach Mark Richt missed out on elite in-state wide receiver Preston Williams in the 2015 cycle. Though the former 5-star is currently dealing with academic eligibility questions at Tennessee, his Peach State departure represented a less-than-stellar cycle at the position.

Georgia lost commitments from 4-star receivers Van Jefferson (Ole Miss) and Darius Slayton (Auburn) late to conference rivals. Elite athlete Terry Godwin helped alleviate those subtractions by sticking to his pledge through last signing day, but there was a sentiment the Bulldogs may have come up slightly empty-handed at receiver.

First-year offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer, a longtime NFL assistant, already has future plans that feature a pair of top-tier quarterbacks (Jacob Eason and Bailey Hockman). Now he's looking to build a strong supporting cast around them.

Davis, 5-star tight end Isaac Nauta and in-state running back Elijah Holyfield likely land on the top of Schottenheimer's wish list. Georgia already holds pledges from four receivers on the 2016 recruiting trail, but only Charlie Woerner is considered a top-50 positional talent in composite rankings, and he projects as a hybrid tight end.

Davis is the game-changer Georgia is searching for to pair with Eason for years to come. Fans in Athens would have hopes for an aerial connection rivaling eventual NFL stars Matthew Stafford and A.J. Green.

The Bulldogs are sure to face stiff competition from teams like Tennessee and Auburn during the last leg of this hotly contested recruitment, but no squad should value Davis more than Georgia.
