Tyshawn Taylor commits to Marquette University

Todd Rosiak breaks the news tonight -- very welcome news. 6'3" PG Tyshawn Taylor from Jersey City St. Anthony's looks to be a terrific get for Tom Crean.

After losing out on Iman Shumpert, perhaps Crean landed the player who is ultimately the best fit for the program. Only time will tell, but that's what MU fans realized after Bobby Frasor's trip to Tobacco Road yielded Dominic James. Regardless, this is an important verbal for MU on several fronts:

    * As we saw in this video and in this video interview,Taylor brings height and strength to a backcourt laden with undersized point guards;
    * Taylor represents the most highly-regarded East Coast recruit to commit to MU under Tom Crean;
    * Taylor appears to be a true point guard - an excellent complement to fellow 2008 commit Nick Williams and current freshman Scott Christopherson.

Taylor chose Marquette over VaTech, Georgia Tech, KU and (as of today) UNC.

More later......welcome to Marquette, Tyshawn!
