The Cyclones were the first Division I program to offer Taylor, in December 2022. He planned to take an official visit to Iowa State in June.

He helped his Lake Minneola team to a 10-2 record and the regional finals in his junior season. Taylor had 31 tackles, three pass breakups and an interception through the first 10 games.

Taylor is the seventh commit in Matt Campbell’s 2024 recruiting class, which is ranked No. 34 in the nation.
