In addition to game day duties, the Cowboys act as ambassadors to the university at high-profile fundraisers and hands-on service projects. Already, David has participated in an event for ARC of Texas (Association for Retarded Citizens) and fired the cannon at Sally & Mack Brown’s Champions to Cure Duchenne gala, where he met Ricky Williams, Vince Young and Colt McCoy.

Joining David as a new Cowboy inductee is LHHS 2008 grad and former Bell Boy Stanton Morrow. Recent members have included Brad Ratliff (LH 2005), Matt Ashbaugh (LH 2004) and Drew Solomon (LH 2003).
