"Derrick's leadership truly will be missed," TU Interim President Janet Levit said. "He recognizes that the student in student-athlete always comes first. Even while building a championship culture for the Golden Hurricane, his focus was always on helping students succeed in the classroom as well as on the field."

While no immediate successor has been named, Levit will work with university leaders to soon name an interim leader for the department.
