Katy’s Davis finds comfort, fit at Mississippi State
“Ever since I went on my visit, they treated me like family,” Davis said of Mississippi State. “Right when I got there, I was welcomed like I was one of their own. They sent me a whole bunch of letters; I think I got letters from the entire staff there. It’s a great environment. They love football and that’s something I want to be a part of.”
Davis presented his reveal on a Zoom call with Mississippi State running backs coach Jason Washington.
“I love that maroon!” Washington exclaimed. “Hail State! I’m fired up, Seth. You don’t even understand. We can’t wait to take care of y’all. We’re going to have a great time.”
