Great stuff. Derrick has to be my favorite player on the team and seems like an all around great guy. I have never heard of him complaining about anything and is a class act. Given his speed and running style, I wouldn’t be surprised if he makes an NFL roster. He is the epitome of someone who won’t be held back by anything and is a perfect example of a true student athlete.

Anyone looking for today’s UCLA article (which is on Nelson Resario) can find it here:
I don’t know why the Daily News didn’t include a link to it either on the UCLA page or the Sports page.

My favorite part of watching UCLA football this year is watching Derrick Coleman run the football and block for his teammates. I get a thrill up my leg as Chris Matthews would say, only in Coleman’s case it’s warranted. What a great kid and representative of the school!

Derrick is one of my favorite Bruin football players–or athletes–ever. Ditto to the above comment. Great stuff indeed!

Pretty much ditto whats been said. It’s hard to hate the guy.

And, given what he does in the community to reach out and inspire hearing-impaired children, he’s truly a role model that Bruins can be proud of.

Nice hearing from Derrick… great guy! But how can you not remember what a #8 consists of when you eat it all the time? I think he was a little nervous
Just wish we had more guys like him!

The real question is, how does Jon not know what is the #8 combo at McD’s?
