Taylor Signs with Ohio University

This afternoon at Gahanna Lincoln High School, in front of numerous well wishers, Stevie Taylor signed his national letter of intent to play college basketball at Ohio University. The 5’9 senior verbally committed to Ohio early August and chose the Bobcats over Providence, University of Richmond, Miami (OH), Akron, Toledo, UNC Wilmington, George Mason and James Madison. John Groce expressed early interest in Taylor shortly after leaving Ohio State and taking the head coaching job at OU. Taylor was impressed with Ohio’s academics, the campus, facilities and a program that is clearly on the upswing. Joining Taylor in Ohio’s 2011 class is Joe Mitchell, a 6’3 junior college point guard from Kansas and Tyquane Goard, a 6’7 small forward from Charleston, West Virginia.
