USA Today: Davis Twins Elite in Football, Track and at Home

[Mavric]

Experts who claim that infants are usually a year old before taking their first steps couldn’t have known the amazing Davis babies, Carlos and Khalil.

A full three months before their first birthday, these fun-loving, high-energy twins were not only walking, they were running. But they didn’t stop there. A couple of years later as pre-schoolers, they started doing backflips without a moving start – breaking not one bed, but three.

“There’s so much stuff that’s broken around this house, it’s ridiculous,” Tracy Davis, their tough-but-doting mama, says with a grin.

By the time they got to high school, Carlos and Khalil had gained height, weight and notoriety as nationally ranked track athletes as well as nearly unstoppable defensive linemen.

But it’s not just their size and strength that set these identical twins apart. Big, strong kids abound, after all. It’s their astounding blend of size, strength, gracefulness and speed. There’s also a fierce combative fire that flames up like a prairie fire the second the competition begins, then vanishes the second it’s over.

When they’re not competing, these Nebraska-bound brothers are just smiling, easygoing kids. Happy, polite, softspoken and playful. Many times they’ve fooled teachers by pretending to be each other, or filled teammates’ shoes with shaving cream.

I read an interview once where the reporter asked Carlos what it's like to get more sacks. Kahlil responds by saying "someone has to take the double teams" and then the reporter writes "argument ensues" after Kahlils response. These guys are incredible athletes but I bet they're also just funny to watch interact. I bet the team and the coaches are going to have a riot pitting them against each other. We'll see the results on the field.
