Georgetown DB Derrick Deese: veteran Hoyas defensive back with compact, scrappy cover traits
In the 2003 and 2004 seasons, Derrick Deese was a Georgetown defensive back listed at 5-foot-9 and 170-175 pounds, a build that usually points to quickness, leverage, and a willingness to battle in coverage rather than win with pure size[1][4][10]. Georgetown’s roster and football archives identify him as a DB from Springfield, Virginia, and outside roster listings there isn’t reliable stat production available here, so the best read is role-based: a depth piece or rotational cover man whose value would come from disciplined technique and toughness[1][10]. If you want a compact, fight-for-every-inch defensive back who can fit into a system that prizes smart coverage and special-teams grit, he’s the kind of player who earns a look.
