Four-star 2024 Providence Day School (N.C.) quarterback Jadyn Davis was part of a huge visitor group at Tennessee over the weekend.

He was on hand to witness the Volunteers knock off No. 3 Alabama for the first time in more than 15 years, and he also got to reconnect with an old friend: Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning.

Davis posted side-by-side photos of him and Manning posing together at the game and also when he was a young camper at the Manning Passing Academy in Thibodaux, Louisiana.

Davis has long been considered one of the top quarterbacks in the 2024 cycle, dating back to his time as a middle schooler.

Currently, he is the No. 17 overall prospect in the 2024 class, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. Davis also ranks as the nation’s No. 3 junior quarterback and the No. 1 recruit in the state of North Carolina.

The Vols are one of a handful of schools heavily pursuing him, a list that also includes Michigan, Clemson, North Carolina and Penn State. His trip over the weekend to Knoxville was his second since April and fourth as a recruit.

Michigan is considered the strong favorite to land Jadyn Davis, according to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine (RPM). It gives the Wolverines a 78.5 percent chance of securing his commitment.
