He'll transfer to IU      Actually, if he transfers more likely to Seton Hall or Rutgers.  No rule saying a former Big East LOI commitment can't transfer from a non-Big East school (KU) to a Big East school later on.

Or, here's another scenario...the kid is damn good and does just fine at KU and stays there for four years.  He's a top 60 player according to some services, and only 150 by others.  But when I look at who offered him (Kansas, Ga. Tech, MU, UNC, Florida and Va. Tech), I tend to believe he's closer to top 60 then 150.

If that happens I hope he is more productive than Sir Walter. He was one of my favorites but never lived up to expectations.

I think this is a case where TC deserves some props for recruiting a real stud.  Taylor & Nick Williams may have been two of his better recruits in 9 years.  I don't think now you can say he left b/c he saw life after the 3 amigos would be rough.

I remain optimistic for the future, I think Buzz's recruiting of WI & IL will really surprise some people.

We don't want him in 2 years.

he plays two years, his wet nurse Hurley tells him to go pro. So he hires an agent, doesn't make it in the NBA and winds up in Europe.

We might. Since we might not have a point guard by then.

Okay, we want him if he has detached from Hurley's tit by then...

Taylor and Williams are going to be solid players, Tough losses for MU. Buzz needs to get ti going or we are in deep shi# after next season. JUCo's won't cut it.

Sir Walter did drive a nice Caddy while on campus.

It appears Kansas may be recruiting former MU target Demar Derozan who is thinking of decommitting from USC due to possible NCAA sanctions.  Not sure how that would affect TT (DD may be a one and done, more of a wing than guard also maybe?, not sure) but its possible he may be over recruited before he gets to KU?  I wish him the best but karma can be a...

Taylor will be a much better player than Nick Williams. Williams is a lazy player who played on a team that had great players and no coaching. They were one of the poorest coached teams I have seen around. His stats may be better than Taylor's, but he is overated in my opinion. Taylor on the other hand, had an excellent coach, and will certainly be better defensively and I think over time will be better offensively. I wish them both the best of luck.
