I have been a teammate and friend of derek’s for a long time. There are some things that you can’t teach any athlete which is heart and a certain type of mind set you have to possess espescially when playing defense at the division one level. Derek and another former teammate of mine Sean Lee currently a linebacker at PSU have what no coach can teach them. Both of them are the most fierce competitors I have ever competed against in my life. Not only will Derek start for Maryland in the near future, with his size, strength, and fierce mindset there is no doubt in my mind you will be watching hime play on sundays.

I am Derek’s Father here in Pittsburgh Pa, My son is capable of taking over a ball game he has those skills, when everybody doubted him in pgh i kept telling them that he was the best reciever in Pa, he was on a team that did not throw the ball, but my son and i used to get up at 5 in the morning and go to Duquesne University and work out, after he worked out i would go to work and he would go home. Football is in our family blood and in due season as i told his doubters here i am telling you all there he will make a difference on the terps soon he will rise like cream, right to the top in the ACC mark my words!!
