HUNTINGTON — Keion Davis’ name naturally lends itself to a good football nickname.
Neon Keion?
Good, but that’s not it.
“Hey, Keion Deion!” a Marshall teammate bellowed as he passed by.
There’s the tribute to Deion Sanders. Today’s college football players are barely old enough to remember the guy, but the legend never wanes.
And it won’t wane with Davis. But that begs the question: Why doesn’t he idolize a running back?
For a minute, he had a deep thought about it, as if to reconsider. But he couldn’t switch at the last minute — you wouldn’t do that to Deion, right?
