David had a pretty easy choice as to where to play in college. He went to a big school in the Raleigh area of North Carolina and scouts started noticing him right away his freshman year as he was starting at cornerback from the first game of his freshman year after he had impressed both in middle school football as well as worked harder than anyone else in summer camp. He racked up tons of interceptions and pass deflections from the get go and by the end of his freshman year he had scouts from schools not just in North Carolina coming to see him. David entertained all of the coaches who called to talk to him, but he knew as long as he got an offer from NC State that that's where he wanted to go. He wanted to not only play football and be close to home, but also he would be able to pursue his dream of getting a degree in mechanical engineering. David set himself up to graduate early in his senior year, so he could get on campus at NC State and begin showing the coaching staff that he should be starting and not have to redshirt. He knew it was a possibility, but he got on campus early in January and immediately started working with the trainers to get him on a rigorous workout and diet regimen to get him into top shape before spring training camp started. He also had a very aggressive course load during his first semester in order to be able to have a lighter load during the fall semesters. He worked his ass off both on the field and in the classroom and was the defensive star of the spring football game picking off multiple passes. Between his excellent spring game performance as well as his hard work during the summer training camp he earned a starting spot at cornerback his rookie season and went on to have a great career at NC State.
