Donegal great Michael Murphy has ruled himself out of the running for the county's managerial vacancy, insisting it is too soon for him.

The 2012 All-Ireland winning captain has been touted as a potential replacement for the Aidan O'Rourke/Paddy Bradley combination which took over mid-season following Paddy Carr's exit.
