At some point, life has to start feeling like a fairy tale for Los Angeles Rams' defensive lineman, Aaron Donald. 

In his relatively short career in the NFL, Donald has quickly become among the most feared players in the league, as well as signing a historic contract in LA. Now he can add the achievement of having his alma mater naming a performance center in his honor. 

The performance center at the University of Pittsburgh was renamed after Donald following his seven-figure donation to the school's football program, where he played for four seasons. 

For Donald, who is no stranger to accomplishments, this has to rank near the top of his career achievements. 

"It’s crazy. It’s surreal," he said. "I would’ve never thought in a million years that my name would be on anything like this, so to see that and see it now, you really can’t put it in words."

Donald is still very present in his home town, and now there is a landmark in Pittsburgh that will signify his achievements for years to come.
