I didn't think Sports Overtime would be the same once Brian Milam left, but Derek absolutely proved me wrong and I thought he was very good at what he does.

So now here I am thinking again that Sports Overtime won't be the same without Derek...but I hope it I'm wrong.

Best of luck to Derek in Louisville.

It's sad to see him go. I don't think Sports OT will ever be the same and we will probably never get to see weekly highlight videos posted on here anymore :Sad04:

On the other hand, this is something that eventually had to happen with someone of Derek's talents as he is moving on to bigger and better things. I wish him nothing but the best!

This could actually be a good thing for EKY kids. If they let him, hopefully Big D can give them a plug from time to time.

Big D will be GREATLY missed!!!!

Good luck Derek. I have been a huge fan for years. Friday nights & Sports Overtime will not be the same. Wish you the best.
