California speedster Charles Davis is set to visit the Miami Hurricanes, and he's bringing a unique blend of skills to the tight end position. The Hurricanes are keen on securing top recruits, and Davis, a three-star prospect, is the latest talent to explore their campus. Scheduled for a visit on April 26, Davis comes from Westlake High School in Westlake Village, California, and is ranked 605th nationally and 60th in the state.
Though listed as a tight end, Davis shines as a wide receiver, boasting impressive stats: 69 catches for 1,029 yards, averaging 14.9 yards per catch, and scoring 13 touchdowns over 20 games in two seasons. He's also made his mark defensively with 15 tackles and an interception.
Standing at 6-5 and 200 pounds, Davis has the frame for a tight end but could benefit from adding muscle for the collegiate level. The Hurricanes, with their dynamic offense under coordinator Shannon Dawson, have successfully utilized tight ends, as seen with Elija Lofton and Alex Bauman combining for 41 catches, 384 yards, and four touchdowns last season.
Davis's wide receiver experience gives him an edge in route running, making him a versatile playmaker. His recruitment is heating up, with interest from powerhouses like Georgia, Michigan, SMU, and BYU.
The Oregon Ducks are currently favored to land Davis, according to recruiting analyst Blair Anguio. Davis has already visited Oregon for Junior Day, and the Ducks, fresh off a College Football Playoff appearance, are an attractive option.
With Miami's quarterback situation featuring promising talents like Luke Nickel and Dereon Coleman, Davis has plenty to consider. The addition of All-ACC quarterback Darian Mensah through the transfer portal adds another layer to Miami's appeal, though Mensah's NFL aspirations might limit his stay.
Davis has ample time to weigh his options and make a decision that aligns with his future aspirations. The college football world will be watching closely to see where this versatile playmaker lands.
