He was the fullback on our state (championship) team. He'd be the tailback for 90 percent of the teams in the state. He's the same size (6-0, 210), and he runs very well. We'll see how he runs at tailback.
He was the type who got everything he could out of his ability. And the reason he did that was his intelligence level and a set of personal expectations that were higher than guys he was competing against.
He was very accepting of everything and everyone. You could call it simplistic; his daughter Grace ... calls it, especially near the end of his life, fatalistic. He just loved to compete anywhere, anytime.
He went through a lull. I think a lot of it had to do with confidence. But his win over Santa Cruz's Guerrero Villarreal showed a lot of promise. It was a guy who beat him. Derek's ready for the challenge.
He works his tail off. His work ethic is one of the best in the game and he's always trying to improve his game. He just cares so much and maybe that's why he got into a funk last year. He pressed so hard.
He's a backup everything -- first, third, left and right. It's one day. He made some good plays. He's been battling the bad back. So he's playing third again [today against Colorado] to get him acclimated.
He's a classic, what I'd liken to an old-time baseball player. In the old days, it wasn't so much around power, it was about getting the bat on the ball and creating havoc on the field and getting on base.
He's a great player. We've had some really good matches. He hits the ball so clean, we're going to have a lot of points. There's some good shot-making and we both have pretty big serves to get free points.
He's a guy we had targeted and in the end it's a big upgrade for us. I know a lot about him. I know his game and I know he'll fit in well with the locker-room. He'll be a great addition to our hockey club.
He's a leader for us. We have a lot of confidence in him, and he makes sure we play well in front of him. He's a smart player. He's been around a lot. He knows how the guys should play in front of the net.
He's a Pro Bowl receiver. He led the league in touchdown catches and yards last season. He's been there, done that. He makes big catches in big games, and I know he is going to come through when it counts.
He's a quick healer, as he has let me know quite a few times. We don't want to rush him, but we would like to get him out there as soon as possible. We have a long injury list, but we're getting guys back.
He's a real nice colt. You are going to hear a lot about him. I was going to run him in the Tampa Bay Derby, but I didn't want to push him yet. I thought I could bring him here and win at 80 or 90 percent.
He's a sure bet. There's no doubt. There was some concern about his weight, but obviously he's been able to put a little bit of weight on since the end of the season. We were very, very impressed with him.
He's a tough inside runner, with good speed. He seeks out. He runs sort of like Jim Taylor. Once he gets in the open field, he's looking to deliver the blow. He's looking to be the hammer and not the nail.
