i think that the only way we sign this kid or any other kid for that matter, is if the coaches know of some future attrition (ie. ben mills transfer)

He reminds me of Spencer. Not quite as tall, a bit thicker, and a quicker/more compact stroke. Very similar games.

Coach A is listed as the lead recruiter on him.
That's enough for me.
I actually like what I see more than I expected. He has a nice looking shot and is a solid athlete. But does he bring anything we won't get from Jenkins? I don't know, I have to trust Tad if he wants him, but unless there's significant attrition this year (or one of the current signees doesn't qualify), I'm just not sure this is the best way to use the scholarship right now.
Yes. Taylor's a point guard. He's a little bit of a shoot first PG from the (limited) videos I've seen, but he's a PG. Jenkins is definitely a SG/SF type.
From Rivals:
Taylor is flying quietly under the radar at Fairfax High School in Los Angeles, but he's quietly becoming one of Southern California's fastest-rising prospects. The three-star shooting guard is explosive from an athletic standpoint and loves attacking the basket. His jump shot is still coming around, but if he continues to work on his game, he'll be a solid contributor at the Division I level. Colorado and Penn have already offered Taylor, while SDSU is rumored to be heavily recruiting the Fairfax senior.
Fair enough. He looks like a 2 to me, but I definitely trust your info on this more than the little I've seen. If he can play the point, even on a limited basis, it would definitely help to change my opinion here. With Carlon and Nate leaving, another ballhandler to take some pressure off of ski and the mayor is a big need for next year.
`CU needs another power forward around 6-9/6-10 .
CU needs a 2 who can drain it from the 3 pt line. Losing Brown, Tomlinson and Dufault is pretty much all of our outside shooting threat at this point and it's not very good at that.
I'm not sure we have anyone coming in that can drain them, so if this kid can, Tad will take him.
