would have maybe even been concerned for his sake if he had decided to come back

Exactly. I would have been disappointed if he hadn't declared early. Running backs have a small window of opportunity for the next level. Take the money and run, David.

Very classy young man. Best draft announcement I've ever read. Go get 'em, DM!

 

[Cyfan1965]

I would be willing to let him go to the vikings

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

I think it's aweaome we have guys declaring for the draft. Can't remember the last time it's happened. Good luck David!

Last one that comes to my head is Troy in the 90's

 

[Dandy]

I'm excited to see DM go through the combine and get compared to other draftees.

 

[harimad]

I would wish him well regardless. But, my gosh, these RB recruits coming in make it so much easier!

 

[TyCloneHoops]

You set a tone for the program here in Ames. It was incredible. Now go set a tone in the NFL. Thanks for everything David. It's your time now!

it's shorter just to paste the link to the story, but here are a bunch of video's of him embarrassing Iowa. My personal favorite is when he just spikes the defender like Gronk celebrating a TD.

Crazy to think that was really his coming out party and it was less than 1.5 years ago.

Holy Cow. After watching that Josey Jewell better hope his team drafts him.

Being a Vikings fan I would love to see him in Purple and Gold, however, I know that is not going to happen. I think his best landing spots would be either Kansas City, Indianapolis, NYJ, or Houston.

Green Bay needs a running back

A true program changer. Thank you David. We'll be rooting you on hard at the next level.

Will miss him and his game a lot, but I feel we are in good hands with the RB stable. I'm expecting the OL will finally be the size and strength we have not had since McCarney's tenure.

Losing him makes me think this will be how it feels when my son leaves for college in a few years. Selfishly I don't want to see either go but will anxiously await the great impacts they will make in the future.

Wonder if he is staying in school this semester or going full on for draft prep/promoting and stuff? I am kinda big on our guys becoming graduate alumni at some point particularly great representatives of the program and the university like Montgomery.

 

[Althetuna]

Good luck and God's speed.

 

[DurangoCy]

I haven't been this happy for someone declaring early ever. I hope he absolutely tears the NFL up! Good Luck #32.

Really can’t stay in school. Draft is in the middle of the semester. After he’s drafted, the team will expect him in camp. Until then his full time job will be training.

There's no way you can attend classes and do all of the traveling for NFL work outs.

 

[HFCS]

DM is an all time legend and the ideal template for an ISU football player.

Good thing we've signed what seems to be our highest rated group of RBs ever.

Thanks. Shows you how much I follow the NFL and their draft, as in not at all!
