4-star DL Titan Davis down to four schools

Saint Louis DeSmet four-star defensive lineman Titan Davis has four schools at the top of his recruitment.

The 6-foot-4, 260-pounder told On3’s Hayes Fawcett on Saturday evening that Alabama, Michigan, Penn State and USC make up his final quartet of programs.

Davis is now the No. 102 overall prospect and No. 9 DL in the 2026 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 2 player in Missouri.

The blue-chipper has locked in official visits to each of his final four programs. Alabama will kick things off on the weekend of May 30 and will be followed by Penn State (June 6), USC (June 13) and Michigan (June 20).

Davis previously locked in an official visit to Nebraska, but the Trojans have replaced the Cornhuskers for that second weekend of June.

As a junior for DeSmet, Davis logged 46 total tackles and nine sacks. The Spartans won 14 games and a state title, finishing as the No. 15 team in Missouri, per the On3 Composite Rankings.

Davis took plenty of visits this spring as he whittled his list down from 14 to four. Wisconsin, Texas A&M, Auburn, Illinois, Missouri, Oregon, Texas, Georgia and Kansas State also did not make the final cut alongside Nebraska.

The On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine currently gives the slightest of edges to Alabama, with Michigan right behind. A spring trip to Ann Arbor left U-M in a great position with the elite Midwest defensive standout.

“I tell everybody Titan is a quiet guy,” his mother Jessica Johnson told On3’s Steve Wiltfong in March. “He’s not going to be posting and bragging. Even when he goes to game days he’s not the type of kid to take out his phone and take pictures and videos. The videos that came across and he sent from that game-day visit, I knew that was special for him. I knew he hadn’t done that at any other visit or game day. I know he was excited for me to get there.”
