Something I thought you guys might appreciate

[tray dub]

Hey guys, I'm a Duck fan and I just thought some ND fans would like to hear about this. In last Saturday's game, one of our players wore a picture of the young man that fell from the tower at the Irish practice a few weeks ago. I thought it was a really nice gesture.

Here's the story with a picture of him with the photo: Oregon fan zone: Ducks' D.J. Davis photo a tribute to Notre Dame student | OregonLive.com

Good luck to you guys in your bowl game and in the '11-'12 season.

D.J.Davis, a real class act

Class act. Thanks for sharing tray dub.

That's awesome, I was just going to post that myself. Class act. You know who we'll be rooting for in the National Championship game.

Pretty awesome. I'm going to root for the Ducks that much harder in the NC game.

 

[Irish4Life09]

Such a class act.Good luck ducks.

 

[tadman95]

i have some friends who are Auburn grads so I was leaning towards them. Screw 'em, just changed to a big "Duck" fan, for one game anyway

 

[ryno 24]

DJ DAvis is a class act good man and go ducks

 

[jmurphy75]

Wow, how often do you get to see that type of class? Very impressive.

 

[fitz_bu47]

That is awesome, Go Ducks!

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

That's awesome. Go Ducks!

 

[CurtisCandy]

WOW! That is really awesome!

I, too, was going to be rooting for Auburn, simply because I was always a huge Bo Jackson fan and have followed them since.

But the fact is - like me - Bo Jackson is an old man now, and what has he ever done for the ND Nation anyway? - Particularly when stacked up against something as classy and heartwarming as what this young man did.

GO DUCKS!!!

 

[KPENN]

That's awesome. I was gonna pull for them before, but now I'll be rooting even harder. Go Ducks!!!

 

[BestBIrish47]

Yea, I have to say, that is a classy move!

 

[Dizzyphil]

GO DUCKS!!!!!!!!!

Awesome that someone would do that for someone else clear across the country. Wish there were more stories like this.

[RallySonsOfND]

I know who I'm rooting for now in the National Title game!

Class Act! Go Ducks!

 

[jason_h537]

saw it, Classy move. Hope Oregon shuts the SEC up. Love Pac 10 football

 

[Mr. McGibblets]

I am not insinuating anything about any posters who used the words "class act" to describe this player. I think this video is hilarious as it describes "Class Act". Its about 1 minute long.

Nice gesture. BTW.

I'm gonna wear a picture of NDOM, when Auburn destroys the Ducks!

Quack!

Quack!

Go Irish!

 

[GreatGolson]

i just got a new Profile pic, thanks Duck Nation, just found a reason to root for u guys in the NC

 

[Irish Insanity]

Young men like this are becoming more absent in todays college football. This individual seeked no attention from media or fans for his gesture. What he did meant more to him than the reaction and attention of the media and people around him. This is rare in todays college athelete, or sports on any level. DJ with your team having the great season it is you took the time to honor a fallen individual that you never really knew. Class act is an understatement. You have probably touched more than you ever imagined. Thank You.

 

[tray dub]

I'm glad you guys appreciated it. He's known to be a role model on the team.

It's always a little fun to root against Notre Dame, but since you are seemingly all gonna be pulling for the Ducks, maybe I'll be a Domer for the Sun Bowl .

 

[k1ssme1m1r1sh]

DJ Davis, a class act. My hat is off to you! Go Ducks!

 

[nd1]

that great man. hope yall the best in nc game.

 

[OCIrish]

Just another good reason to root for the Ducks. Go Oregon!!

 

[Kingbish01]

I love seeing the huge gap between both QB's playing for the NC. On one side you have a guy who understands the big picture, and on the other you have a guy wanting to get paid to play football AND earn a free education. HEY CAM, we have all seen athletes like you before..relax you're not that important.

GO DUCKS!

 

[NDTH91]

Wow, that was a great gesture and thank you for posting it on here. That just made me decide who I will be rooting for in the NC game.

+1

Nice to see with all the negatives that we usually hear about athletes. Oregon now has my vote too, Go Duckies!

 

[tankjeep]

i was already a ducks fan (since my big sis lives there) and have plenty of duck stuff to wear come championship nite, but this is a class act
