McDonald will have his shot to make this list. He's a true sophomore. He should not be on this list though right now. Peterson is clearly above him at the moment. Last year as a RS FR, he had 41 tackles (23 solo), 2 sacks, and 2 forced fumbles, one of them on kickoff. He's going to be really really good by the time he's done, as "Will" McDonald.
I just want to point out the McDonald had basically the same stats as AJ Epenesa did his first year at Iowa, and hawkeye fans deemed him to be the best DE in the state after that year. So hawkeye fans either have to say McD deserves on the list or they were morons for their homerism with AJ.
