It's unreal.
He actually wanted to go to my high school but then the asshole basketball coach told him that he couldn't play basketball AND football (he could have, but the basketball coaches just typically didn't like it).
Oh, he was amazing to watch in high school because he'd just run around in the pocket, pull up, and launch the ball 60 yards downfield, which sucked trying to cover as a safety.
I'm still amazed that Derek Smith didn't make it in the NFL because a 6'6 tight end that's 240, athletic, and can catch is just a matchup nightmare. Last I heard, he was still parking cars at Cincinnati Children's Hospital (I see him when I have appointments over there since that's where I was after the wreck or I present to nursing students from UC at Children's usually once a semester).
His very best highlight at UK, was when the team was down by several touchdowns late in the game, and fans started filing out. He turned around and yelled at them "Hey, where y'all going, you're going to miss a hell of a comeback". And then they did.....
