- Induction:
- 2003
A three-year letterman in football, Davis was a member of the Wake Forest football team from 1949-51.
Davis enrolled at Wake Forest in 1948 and was a quarterback and punter on the freshman team. In 1949, he led the Big Four in punt returns while playing safety and holding for extra points. He was chosen All-Southern Conference as a quarterback in 1950 and was named to the all-conference team as a safety in 1951, earning the rare honor of being named all-league on both sides of the ball.
Davis led WFU to the mythical "Big Four" title in 1950 and 1951 and he helped lead the Deacons to four consecutive victories over Duke and coach Wallace Wade. In 1952 and 1953, Davis worked as WFU's freshman coach and scout.
