Derek is the younger brother of emerging star DE for the UW Badgers, J.J. Watt. The younger Watt is 6'2 210 and is a runningback\linebacker for his high school team. Considering his brothers height he may still have plenty of room to grow. He has been offered by Northern Illinois and Western Michigan so far(Im guessing as a LB).
Another scholarship offer has been made to a member of the state's class of 2011 bringing the number of known Division I-FBS offers to 22 and the number of offers overall to 27.
The latest prospect to add to the list - Pewaukee running back/linebacker Derek Watt (6-2, 210).
"My family and I went down to Northern Illinois for a practice Saturday and Coach (Jerry) Kill gave me a scholarship offer,"Â Watt told WSN in a short message. "I really enjoyed the coaching staff there and the Yordon Center is great."Â
His second scholarship offer to date, Watt had previously garnered one from Western Michigan University.
In addition to the scholarship offers from NIU and WMU, Watt has drawn recruiting interest from Wisconsin, Northwestern, Indiana, Central Michigan, Miami (Ohio), Southern Illinois and North Dakota State.
The younger brother of current University of Wisconsin defensive end J.J. Watt, Derek Watt was named Lake Country Publications first-team all-area and first-team all-conference at running back as a junior. He also garnered Waukesha Freeman honorable-mention all-Waukesha County and first-team all-conference laurels at linebacker in 2009. He received honorable-mention all-conference accolades at running back as a sophomore.
Watt recently scored a SPARQ Rating of 101.1 at the Nike Combine in Chicago. There he recorded a 4.74-second laser-timed 40-yard dash, 4.25-second shuttle, 29.4-inch vertical jump and 40-foot kneeling powerball toss. He was named an all-combine performer at linebacker for his efforts.
