Daves was a guard and tackle for Dan McGugin's Vanderbilt Commodores of Vanderbilt University. He played on the 1912 and 1918 Vanderbilt teams, captain of the 1918 team.[1] His play was praised during Vanderbilt's largest ever victory, a 105 to 0 over Bethel in 1912.[2] Daves was selected All-Southern that year.[3] He may have been All-Southern in 1918 as well.[4] At Vanderbilt he was a member of Sigma Nu fraternity. His brother Oliver Daves was an All-Southern end for the Washington and Lee Generals in 1919.
