DD had him on his show today....it was a good interview, check the podcast if you want to hear it. He was well spoken and comes off as grateful and very humble. He was recruited by Clemson, though he went to South Carolina....something to do with some test results and a missed deadline........didn't really catch the details as I was driving in a monsoon at the time. He's always been fast....he said he grew up on a farm and alot of his early "workouts" were doing work on the farm. DD played an interview w/his college coach from May and he said his biggest challenge w/Darius was getting his weight up....came to him very rangy and fast but strong (185) but they had to work at getting his weight over 200. He couldn't speak more highly of a prospect. Said alot of teams expressed interest in Darius, though the Colts did not tip their hand at all that they would take him as high as they did.......Anyway, seems like a well spoken and very together person......the kind of person that seems prepared to make the most out of an opportunity.
