After spending over 20 years in college athletics with the Big 10 and Pac 10 as a player, coach and administrator, Deryk Gilmore left the team side to become a sports agent. Gilmore was certified as an agent in 2005 and over the last 12 years has become one of the top agents in the industry according to Forbes Magazine.
Having several first round draft picks and multiple Pro-Bowlers over the years, Gilmore has consistently recognized players who contribute to the NFL, which is what has led to his success.
Gilmore started his company Day 1 Sports and Entertainment in 2017 with the vision of taking his goals and values on how to help players, making that dream a reality. With the P.L.A.N program Gilmore developed within this industry, players get help developing relationships throughout their current and former NFL career, to get jobs going forward in that industry.
“I have a passion for my clients, for football, and working to help them achieve their goals on the field and be men that the world will consider leaders off the field. I want to build an agency that reflects those values”.
