At the 2013 Iron Bowl, Trey Belvin and his father, Charles Belvin, were among those cheering in Jordan-Hare Stadium when Auburn's Chris Davis returned a missed field-goal attempt 109 yards to lift the Tigers to a 34-28 victory over Alabama.
Now, the Auburn fans are cheering Davis again. The Kick 6 hero will sign autographs at Collegiate Warehouse at the Outlet Shops of Grand River in Leeds at 6 p.m. Friday to raise funds for the Springville family. Trey Belvin, 20, has a form of epilepsy that threatens his life, his father said. In about seven weeks, he hopes to have a brain operation in an attempt to alleviate his condition.
"It's incredible," Charles Belvin said. "Me and my son were both ushers at the game. To see (Davis) return that and then we had no idea that any of this was going to happen, and to have someone like Chris Davis, who is just a hero to Auburn fans, to step up and do this for us is absolutely incredible. We're both in awe of him doing this for us."
Davis is now a rookie cornerback for the San Diego Chargers. The former Woodlawn High School standout reports for training camp in San Diego on July 22.
"Because of the support the Auburn family gives us as players, I feel it's important to give back to them," Davis said of his involvement in Friday's event.
Belvin said he, his wife, Ginger, and Trey would leave for the Cleveland Clinic Epilepsy Center on Aug. 17. After three weeks of tests, Trey should be ready for surgery on Sept. 4. After surgery, he would need to remain in Cleveland for seven to 10 days.
"If he has another bad round of seizures like he did three weeks ago," Belvin said, "there's a chance that he might not make it. It could be fatal."
Trey Belvin works as a sales associate at the Collegiate Warehouse at the Riverchase Galleria Mall in Birmingham.
"When we found out three weeks ago that Trey was going to be having the brain surgery, we just started to brainstorm ways to raise money," said Jennifeur McAfee, the general manager of the Leeds store.
Jerry Ragland, an owner of the Collegiate Warehouse stores, arranges autograph signings at the businesses and used his expertise to help set up Friday's charity event.
At the event, Davis will sign items for $25 per autograph. The store will have 8-by-10 action photographs of Davis available for $5. An 18-by-12 signed photograph will cost $65, which will include the autograph and framing.
McAfee said they hope to help the Belvins with the out-of-pocket expenses associated with their extended stay in Cleveland.
"The spirit of Auburn and the Auburn family has been overwhelming so far," Charles Belvin said.
