But then, he shocked everyone with his tenor range.

Davis has always shown an appreciation for musical talent going back to his days in Athens.

During his Senior Day at UGA, Davis celebrated his final home game at Sanford Stadium by leading the Red Coats Marching Band in the Georgia fight song.

“When they called me an honorary member and handed me the plaque, handed me the coat, it was really special. It makes me feels great because they love me as much as I love them,” Davis said at the time. “I wish that they had more recognition and love from Dawg Nation. They play every week. Every week, they are there getting me hyped up. So it’s only right that I went over there and showed them love.”
