Derrick Brooks was a first round draft pick by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 1995. Brooks played 14 seasons as a linebacker for the Bucs and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2014. I met Derrick at his Celebrity Golf Classic Tournament which raised funds for his charity. The Derrick Brooks Charities, Inc. has a mission to provide education, development, and vision to youth who face socio-economic challenges. Not only do they remind them of their hope and future, but they provide them the right resources to ensure a better tomorrow. Derrick Brooks was challenged by coaches like Bobby Bowden, during his FSU days, and Tony Dungy to look outside of football for purpose.
