I think our resident Katy guy on the board said something about how they don't send their RBs to the same schools?...so with Taylor here, we may have been out of the running with Rodney.
He did not have a breakout game yesterday. I saw a couple of times where he was out of position to help with stopping the massively successful Katy run game (though I would say a lot had to do with poor play calling as Taylor was in man coverage and the DBs were getting run off by the motion man away from the direction of the run). Still, he had two TD saving tackles and played solid in pass protection. He did not contribute much as a kickoff returner, but that was only because Katy's game plan was obviously to kick away from Kalu (guess they did not want him to return one for 97 yards like he did last week). Also, I did not see him play during the second half (don't know why, heard it was maybe due to injury).
Well he gave it a 10 and said he was going to talk to his family and coaches about it, I assume he means Nebraska, and might commit before season is over, so I would say it speaks very well of his visit. Why not take some more free visits and do a little traveling . I say this kid is ours for sure
We were also the team to beat with Blackwood....and then less than a week later, he committed elsewhere.
Fair enough, maybe team to beat with Blackwood might have been a little strong, but he did say it was awesome and amazing, then committed elsewhere. Unless it is a quick check in to get the parents blessing today, I still think it is a bad sign to not get the commit right away when he was open to it before the visit.
