<p>Coming out of nowhere, he would help to lead the Sarasota Cardinal Mooney Cougars to their second ever state title – in convincing fashion over Jacksonville Bolles in the 2A title game.</p>

<p>What this Class of 2027 quarterback prospect did last season was complete 147 passes for 2,479 yards and 24 touchdowns.</p>

<p>On Sunday at Bishop Moore High School, Davidson showcased his skills during <strong><em>The Under Armour Next</em></strong> event.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>With his play during the 2025 season and his post-season success, Davidson has been elevated to national status, and with dozens and dozens of colleges making solid offers, he is indeed a prospect that will be followed closely throughout spring and summer and into the 2026 season.</p>
