  08/24/21 - CB Tyon DavisrSr/2023, Tulsa

  A prime candidate for the University of Tulsa's breakout player of the year: cornerback Tyon Davis. Amid the unexpected offseason departures of the previous starting corners, Davis has gone from overshadowed to potential star ahead of his senior year. "I'll say this, and I said it even when the other guys were here: In that room, he was the most athletic guy," coach Philip Montgomery said. "He just had some guys with experience ahead of him." With Akayleb Evans and Allie Green IV moving on to Missouri, a lack of experience at the cornerback position has been a significant concern. Davis, who appeared in 20 games in the past two years after transferring from NEO, is ready to contribute in a larger role like his coaches expect.

"I've always had that confidence (in myself), so now for me to be able to prove (the coaches) right - that's my plan," Davis said. "It's a big deal when your coaches believe in you." Davis bet on himself coming out of Putnam West, where he racked up 100 tackles and 11 interceptions as a two-year starter. Despite success on the field, he didn't land the type of recruiting he was after. "I had small Division II offers and I knew I had the talent," he said. "I just needed a chance, and I knew NEO would do that for me." A self-described late bloomer, Davis redshirted his first year at junior college and followed with 20 tackles and five pass breakups the following season. He has played cornerback since he was a kid. - Tulsa World
