Davis preparing for a 'fresh' start
Friday, August 03, 2007

The big man on campus officially arrived at Rutgers yesterday, except he was slightly smaller than advertised. Anthony Davis, arguably the most heralded recruit in school history, reported for football check-in at 345 pounds -- five fewer than he is listed at in the media guide -- with the goal of being 330 sometime this month.

I've seen Davis's name on several "Freshman to Watch" lists, but I've not seen a single article that said how he was doing in camp. Does anyone know if he's on track to even play this year?

He had a dumb personal foul penalty for a late hit which could have cost his team on a great drive they were making
After that he kept his cool and played a pretty good game

Rutgers' Davis can see what the Blind Side has in store
May 15, 2008

It is what Anthony Davis has been training for his whole life -- a life that is halfway through its 19th year.
The success. The awards. The honors. The food, for a teenager who topped out at a tubby 367 pounds when he arrived at Rutgers last summer. All of them are memories as the massive sophomore offensive lineman attempts to take on the biggest challenge of his young football life -- switching to left tackle.
"First and foremost he is protecting the blind side of the quarterback," Rutgers coach Greg Schiano.
Sounds simple, technically, but couldn't be more emotional and complex when it comes to pouring a football foundation. Left offensive tackle, the second-highest-paid position in the NFL. The hardest to master, perhaps, at any level. The position made famous by author Michael Lewis in his fine book, The Blind Side.
What are you doing with your summer vacation? Eighteen-year-old Anthony Davis is continuing his left tackle makeover. Of course, that was the plan all along for perhaps the most important recruit in Rutgers history.
