He is a cornerback/athlete from Highland Park High School in Detroit. With interest from/in Indiana, LSU, Michigan, Wisconsin but no current offers from those schools.
Additionally, he is 5'10" and weighs 167 lbs. He had 7 int this season.
Dude is fast. He's got a teammate, Jermal Hosley, who's also a speedster. They're two of the better prospects in Michigan, although I don't know if either one will get an offer. Hosley is probably a slot, and Taylor is probably a cornerback. And with all the skill players we took in the 2010 class (plus Greg Brown and Delonte Hollowell), numbers might be a problem. If they were in the class of 2010, I think they would have been more likely to get offered.
Teammates Raymon Taylor and Jermal Hosley (Highland Park, Mich./Highland Park) headed separate ways last weekend.
Taylor attended Illinois' spring game, while Hosley was in Columbus for Ohio State's spring game.
The 5-foot-10, 175-pound Taylor has been a varsity starter at cornerback and wide receiver since his freshman season. He also returns punts and kickoffs. Taylor intercepted seven passes and returned two for touchdowns during his junior season. He caught 32 passes and had five receiving touchdowns.
Other in-state prospects at the Nike camp (in Columbus) preparing for their senior years in high school included Highland Park teammates Jermal Hosley and Raymon Taylor – who both had strong outings
WTF, Indiana? I wonder if we were recruiting him to play CB or what our plans were for him? I just can't see why the kid would choose IU. I'd keep recruiting him up until signing day if I were the staff. After IU goes 2-10 this year he might change his mind.
Indiana is getting it done. I gotta believe some kids are either looking at playing time, wanting to play in the Big10 in front of their families, or both.
