It really is not too much of a deal but I wanted to explain and maybe put to rest some of the rumors surrounding Keith Demby.
Demby is thought, by some, to have an attitude problem. I couldn't disagree more. His problem is not that he has an attitude problem, his problem is that he is so talented and gifted that he get lazy from time to time. It only compounds the rumor that he has allowed his emotions to show when he was frustrated on the field.
Many of the top talented kids that I have worked with are so good or athletic in high school that it appears that they are lazy and in fact, they very well could be. If a kid wants to be good and Keith Does, it only take the first practice of fall camp and getting hit really hard for them to snap into place and get after the hard work. That's about where he is.
If you ask me if I would take Demby?
Any day of the week and twice on Sunday. If you want to know the truth, I think he grades out much better at Sam Linebacker than he does at TB but hey, that's just me.
