Catching up with Texas football legends: Kenneth Davis

Ever wondered what a Dave Campbell's cover boy – or heck – your town's greatest player is up to these days? Let's all catch up for lost time.

In a world littered with selfies, Snapchat stories and Instagram videos, one simple solitary picture might no longer be worth those one thousand words. But don’t try telling Kenneth Davis that theory. Because the picture that graced the 26th issue of Dave Campbell’s Texas Football back in the summer of 1985 represents a lifetime of words and emotions.

“Man, that was a good day,” recalls Kenneth Davis, the dashing young running back sharing a well-deserved smile with his coach Jim Wacker under the banner of the “bible” of Texas Football. “I’ll cherish that moment for the rest of my life and the fact that it was captured on the cover of Dave Campbell’s, well, it’s as special as playing in those four Super Bowls.”
