Senior Justin Davis has persevered through turbulent times at USC

LOS ANGELES >> Three years ago this week, Justin Davis reached a college milestone.

In a loss at Arizona State, Davis, then a freshman running back for USC, eclipsed 100 rushing yards for the first time.

Hours after the game had ended, after the team’s chartered flight returned to LAX in the early Sunday morning hours, he saw his first coach fired.

Lane Kiffin, who once offered him a scholarship to USC in his Heritage Hall office, was out.

Davis, like the rest of his senior class, has since navigated a tumultuous period with four head coaches in his first three seasons, including two midseason firings.
