Newest Maryland commit Devin Butler: ‘I don’t know why I waited so long'

Upper Marlboro, MD (Frederick Douglass) standout Devin Butler becomes the 15th verbal commitment in the class of 2016.

It didn't take long for the newest member of the Maryland Terrapin football family to announce his commitment. Upper Marlboro, Maryland product Devin Butler received a scholarship offer on June 25th and verbally pledged to the Terps on June 28th. Butler, who plays both quarterback and safety for Frederick Douglass, will line up on defense for the Terps and assume a safety position. The recruiting process can be challenging and rigorous for many prospects, and Butler is not an exception to that list.
