Get 2 The Game inspired by American Family Insurance: Garrett Taylor

Everything seemed to be shaping up perfectly for St. Christopher's (Richmond, Va.) standout Garrett Taylor.

Coming off a fine junior season, he committed to Michigan over a host of other offers.

He was set to embark on his senior season and help St. Christopher improve on its 6-4 mark form 2013.

Then, in August, Taylor encountered a hurdle. The 6-foot-1, 195-pound cornerback tore his ACL.

To further complicate things, reports emerged weeks later that while he has not publicly decommitted from Michigan, Taylor may be taking official visits.

While his future on the field is uncertain, his future in the classroom is not.

Taylor excels academically, and takes his responsibilities at school seriously.

"My family has always put a strong stress on academics," he said. "They put me at St. Christopher's in the first grade and it's a world class education. It's definitely helped me develop into a young man."

Taylor checks in at No. 100 in the 247Composite for the Class of 2015, and is the nation's No. 6-ranked cornerback.
