Demetrius Taylor displays his quiet, unassuming personality on and off the field. What isn’t quiet is his talent on the gridiron – talent that helped him earn a scholarship offer from Virginia Tech earlier this year. While Taylor has an abundance of talent, sometimes it’s tough to see in the way he plays – which is within the system.

“He’s made a lot of strides,” Kellam Head Coach Chris DeWitt said of his star player. “He could try to do too much because he is so special, but really I think what makes Demetrius a great football player is that he doesn’t get outside of what we want him to do. He doesn’t try to do too much. If he starts trying to do too much, then we’re not very good. He is a very good player at just doing what he’s told to do.”
