As a lifelong Pikeville HS fan I wasn't a fan of him at Prestonsburg.
BUT he was definitely passionate. So I am good with this hire, welcome to UPike coach Derosset and wish you the best. Congratulations.

I have only talked to him a few times , but I like him. I don't know what went on at Prestonsburg before he left, but any of his former players that I've ever talked to really like him as well. Congrats to him.
