Happy for Derrick Gordon

I certainly am not a sports fan, and I have never heard the name Derrick Gordon before today, but I think this is an awesome story to share.  http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/10754694/derrick-gordon-umass-basketball-player-becomes-first-openly-gay-ncaa-division-player
What a tremendous relief he must feel to not have to hide anymore, and to know that he is supported by many.  His coach's reaction to his coming out is what every coming out person should hear, "we are here for you, we love you, and we will continue to support you."
