Damn, UGA is really not playing a big OOC game this year?
Johnny Taylor was the kind of kid that could add sunshine to anyone’s day.
He did for his high school coach, Stephen Field, four or five times every day.
Each time he came to his coach’s office between classes, if nothing more to give him a wink, his own gesture of faith and hope.
Taylor had his own aspiration, his own quest.
He dawned of the day of donning the sacred Garnet and Gold of Florida State.
To weave through defenders in Doak Campbell Stadium with the passionate Seminoles crowd pulling for his every move.
That dream unfortunately won’t happen.
Taylor, a rising senior running back for Citra, Fla./North Marion, was killed June 7 in a tragic car accident.
His memory will, however, live on in Florida State lore.
Shortly after his passing, Field reached out to Seminoles coach Jimbo Fisher and assistant coach Lawrence Dawsey.
Field explained his player’s story and passion for the Seminoles.
Fisher responded by sending Field and his program an Honorary Athletics Grant-In-Aid Agreement from Florida State for Taylor.

Field will give the document to Taylor’s family Saturday at their son’s funeral.
“Johnny had the best smile and a great personality,” Field said. “He was an awesome human being. I’m so thankful to coach Fisher and his staff for this.”
Services for Taylor will be held Saturday at 11 a.m. at the Church of God in Ocala, Florida.
