Keith Marshall can't outrun all the expectations
Posted Aug 15, 2011
Keith Marshall wants to make sure he gets this right. He wants his words to be precise. Whatever Marshall has done in his lifetime he's done it well. Already at the age of 17, he's been labeled a lot of things: An athlete, a classroom prodigy, a potential superstar. And right now, Marshall is the No. 1-rated high school running back in the country. The upcoming test, though, once football season starts Friday, is one Marshall will try to manage but knows he can't: living up to the expectations of those who have named him the best prep running back.
