IN THEIR WORDS: FRED DAVIS
Southern California feels like home
In Their Words is a weekly feature appearing Sundays in The Blade?s sports section. Blade sports writer Donald Emmons caught up with Rogers graduate and Southern California senior tight end Fred Davis.
Time flies when you?re having fun.
That is how Fred Davis feels these days entering his senior year at the University of Southern California.

osugrad21;204149; said:He has a ring....mop up or not.
jlb1705;937768; said:Yeah, but how many blocks did he have? :osu:
Give him credit. That's two more TD than he would've had for his career playing TE at Ohio State.
I think it's funny that this thread is a paltry 22 pages.
After all the grief that a certain segment of the Buckeye fanbase expressed over his decision, I think it's funny that this is the first thing of any consequence that he's done on the field for Southern Cal, and it comes in a blowout against Wazzu. I think it's funny that people have so much resentment for Thread Davis, yet ignore the fact that an even better receiver in that class (Dwayne Jarrett) reportedly backed out of a fleeting commitment to OSU to go to USC.
Finally, I think it's great that OSU has hardly missed both of those guys amid the contributions of guys like Holmes, Ginn, Gonzalez and Robiskie.
tibor75;939661; said:agreed. considering how little we missed him, you'd think OSU "fans" would stop trying to rip on him. Then again certain "fans" aren't above that.
BTW, his TDs weren't scored in blowout time. I think he had the first TD of the game.
jlb1705;939663; said:Well, kudos to him then. Hope he's enjoying the nice weather out there.
