Early years
Derrick Jordan Prince was born in Camden, New Jersey to Eric Prince and Jessica St. Paul-Prince. Eric, a college baseball star for the University of Miami, played 9 years in the MLB as a shortstop for the Philadelphia Phillies before retiring with a cool 11 million. His mother, Jessica, competed in hurdling for Team USA in the Los Angeles Olympics. Both Eric and Jessica put high athletic expectations on Derrick, and he delivered.
Growing up, Derrick played 3 sports for his local middle school - junior varsity basketball, soccer and little league baseball. However, he mainly had his eyes set on playing football, but never did, as his school never had a football program.
In his freshman year playing for Woodrow Wilson HS, he put up 4 TDS and 300 yards. The next few years saw Derrick put up over 20 touchdowns and 3000 yards. His junior season set numerous record at WWHS - he was named the team captain and lived up to the hype, getting 11 touchdowns, one per game. He originally declared his college allegiance for UCLA, but opted instead to stick close to home and went 3 hours north to the Penn State Nittany Lions.
College career
As a freshman in 2046, Prince came out of the gate swinging like Scrappy Doo, putting up 7 touchdowns for 400 yards. Originally wearing #29 (the number he wore during his time at Woodrow Wilson), he changed it to #16 after his father. He wasn't invisible, however, and he missed more than half of his sophomore season due to a sprained ligament. Despite this (and a hell of a ton of rehab), he came back stronger than ever, and finished his junior year as a team captain, 10 touchdowns for 1,068 yards, and a nomination for the Heisman (he didn't win, mainly due to the fact that DeVonta Smith). His senior year brought gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh - winning the Fred Biletnikoff Award, 20 touchdowns for 2,169 yards, and a sponsorship deal with Campbell's. He also made a reputation as the biggest flashy man since Deion Sanders. Stealing chicken tenders from fans in the stands, grabbing pom-poms and dancing with the cheerleaders, spiking a football off a defender's head - if you could think of it, he could do it. He talked the talk, walked the walk, and made it.
