Davis, a cornerback with freshman eligibility, was returning from an early-morning workout when he stopped to pick up coffee for his mother. He also played Cash 5, selecting numbers on his ticket that his grandmother suggested.

"I looked at the numbers on the website after the drawing and said, 'I ... won!'" he said.
