Dallas (Tex.) Skyline defensive back Anthony Davis, who decommitted from Kansas this month, is set for an official visit to SMU on January 21, he told On3Sports.

According to the On3 Cosensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies, Davis ranks as the No. 97 overall cornerback in the country and No. 159 overall prospect in Texas.
