BobbyMac · Apr 1, 2016

Committed to Michigan

GoIrish41 · Apr 1, 2016

that was quick

PANDFAN · Apr 22, 2016

Mike Elston came by his school Friday

"We have a real good relationship," said Taylor of Elston. "[He's] probably one of the coolest coaches."

Taylor does maintain some level of interest in the Irish.

"Their graduation rate of young black men like me," said Taylor regarding what appeals most about Notre Dame.

"I mean a lot can happen in these next two years," said Taylor

Those khakis are tough to beat. Maybe if BK wears a pair during his visit we can flip him.

On paper.

Plays for Moe Douglass and not one of his six 4 star recruits between '16 - '19 have been offered by OSU... yet.

Let's see if Urban let's Taylor & Antwaun Johnson go without offering like he has so far with WR Danny Davis.

ChicagoCatholic · Aug 9, 2016

“I really like Notre Dame and they are in my top three,” Taylor said. “I loved [receiving the offer] and I was very happy knowing that they think I can play for them.”

“Michigan is number one and the other two are no order.”

Ohio State being the third school.

Whoa. We still in his top group? Us and OSU? That should trigger a UM fan's gag reflex.

Loy thinks we are serious players but he says that about everyone that ND is in contact with when they decommit.

Would have to believe it's an ND OSU battle. No additional info though at this time.

From every non-ND piece I've read it seems like it's an OSU v. the Field battle.

Good news is, OSU is leading for the Top 3 DT's in 18. That's good becuase Taylor is #3. If he gets over shadowed by Vincent from IMG and Jones from NYC then maybe he joins #4 PJ Mustipher in South Bend?

I'd take Mustipher & Taylor over Vincent & Jones 8 days a week.

Didn't Aubrey Solomon also decommit from Michigan? Any interest from ND and vice versa?

I've never heard anything connecting Solomon and ND. It's been sounding like Georgia for a while when he comes up. I think it's one more DT in '17, Cage or Jeter.

Bogtrotter07 · Aug 23, 2016

I would like to see an all out war for this kid.

Solomon is a UGA lock.

Taylor will probably wind up at Ohio State, imo.

irishff1014 · Sep 15, 2016

Per TV in top 2 with OSU.

GBdomer · Sep 19, 2016

Didn't make it with his teammates

GBdomer · Sep 19, 2016

Then Mike Frank making stuff up?

Says Taylor looked really good in person

Have a friend whose daughter is one of the recruiting hosts and she said she was taking "a guy who decomitted from Michigan, Leonard something" around campus. He is the only one I know of that fits that unless someone knows someone else.

The good news is the two other guys in the picture are ND fans and they aren't smiling either. Just some shorties trying to look hard.

"Dad, I signed up to be a recruiting host" would easily be in the top five of phrases you would never want to hear as a father.

ACamp1900 · Sep 20, 2016

Its often hard for me to wrap my head around... kid commits to Michigan,.... then de-commits and suddenly has a top two of tOSU and ND??? THat some de-commitment.
