What was your recruitment like? Were there other schools that you considered? What was is that finally attracted you to Stanford?
DD:
I was the number two recruit in the state of Texas as far as wide receivers. I was recruited by every college in the country. I received over 30,000 letters -- hand-written letters. Every college would be at my practice because we had five or six guys that were going Division I. We had colleges at our practices every day. They were at our Spring Game. Anywhere I wanted to go, I couldve gone. When it was time for the coaches to call, I was receiving twenty calls a night. It was a tough process. My mom kind of ruled out the Florida schools, because they were getting a bad rep. Florida, Florida State, Miami -- this was 1993. My mom ruled that out. The team that recruited me the hardest was Syracuse. Then I had a trip to Michigan. I tripped to UCLA, which ended up being my number two choice, I went to Stanford, and I went to Notre Dame.
