About Derick

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Coach, I'm a game-changing wide receiver. At 6'1" and 178 pounds, I leverage my mental toughness and physical strength to dominate on the field. I excel in clutch situations, like 3rd and long, where my instincts and athleticism take over

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

my mentality is shaped by the players I study, like Travis Hunter and DeVonta Smith. I admire Hunter’s leadership and drive to improve. Smith’s determination, despite being undersized, inspires me to push beyond my limits. I strive to embody their work ethic, resilience, and passion for excellence

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

I don't have any non-sport awards, but I'm committed to academic excellence. I've been working hard to consistently make the honor roll, and I'm striving to continue achieving academic success.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

through my experiences, I’ve developed strong leadership skills, discipline, and a relentless work ethic. I prioritize self-improvement, starting each day with a rigorous workout routine. On the field, I’ve made significant strides, shaving 0.2 seconds off my 40-yard dash time to 4.6 seconds as a sophomore. I’m proud of the bonds I’ve formed with my teammates and my commitment to study film a day

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

one significant challenge I faced was transitioning to football as a freshman, weighing only 140 pounds. I doubted my ability to succeed in the sport. However, I accepted the challenge and committed to consistent weight training, which helped me gain significant weight and strength. This experience taught me the value of perseverance and hard work.

What type of college are you looking for?

I’m looking for a college with a top-notch athletic program that feels like a family. Growing up, I’ve always wanted to earn a scholarship to ease the financial burden on my mom. I’m seeking a college where I can build strong relationships with my teammates and coaches over the next four years, ultimately preparing me for the NFL
