He is Pitts best defensive player in a while. I would venture to say he's their best overall player since McCoy. I am just kind of skeptical to what he will do on Sundays. But like what was said before: has hard work ethic and a knack for going all out. That might outweigh some of his disadvantages

Donald's season highlights. It's long, but it shows how awesome he was this season.

Probably a little more mobile than Hampton. They give Donald comparisons to Geno Atkins, who is a bit undersized but a 2 time all pro for the Bengals. And he picked in the 4th round, same region where Donald will be picked.

Is Donald going to win the Heisman after leading Pitt over Miami last Friday?

I hope he gets some votes. He's the best defensive player in the country in my opinion. Some of the trendy, nerdy voters may take note of his incredible season.

I'm talking like some 5th place votes, which I wouldn't see is too far out of the question.

5th place votes aren't out of the question but he isn't going to win it. Voters are too biased towards offensive players and its a shame because it is the award for the best overall player in college football. I think there have been some pretty good defensive players jipped in the past couple years. Do I see Donald going to by? No. Do I see him getting attention? Yes
