28-31? Maybe he should be a QB...

Any chance we can get him to Charlottsville by kickoff?

CTA watching Ben Davis vs Warren Central tonight. WC - '19 WR David Bell has an offer.

@JoshHelmholdt: #iufb HC Tom Allen out here at Ben Davis v Warren Central in Indianapolis. #Hoosiers ATH commit Reese Taylor, among others, in this game

Friday’s 91st Circle City Showdown didn’t have that same level of drama, with undefeated No. 1 Ben Davis rolling to a 45-16 win over the No. 4 visiting Warren Central Warriors.  Taylor scored three rushing touchdowns and threw for two more.  He tallied 45 rushing yards on 12 carries and was 15 of 25 for 246 yds. through the air.

Both schools have lost players to shootings in the past year and after the game Ben Davis coach Mike Kirschner brought both teams to midfield.  Really encourage you to read the Indy Star's write-up of his message.

Another big night in the works.

@BDCoachCox: After 1 quarter, Reese Taylor is 6-6 for 190 yards and 3 TDs. Giants 20, LN 0. @KyleNeddenriep @peegs @indyhsscores

This young man is putting up impressive numbers every week.  

Reese Taylor, Ben Davis

The Ben Davis quarterback finished 15-of-16 with 295 yards and 5 touchdowns in a 41-6 win over Lawrence North. He had three touchdown passes in the first half, including a 60-yard connection with Kesean Tunstill, a 43-yard connection with Broc Thompson and a 39-yard connection with Johnny Adams.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,668]

Another strong game from Taylor as Ben Davis remained undefeated with a 28-10 win over Carmel.  

Taylor finished 22-of-29 for 309 yards (3 for TD's), and now has 22 touchdown tosses on the season. After throwing an uncharacteristic third interception, Taylor completed nine of his final 10 passes.  He also had 7 carries for 35 yards.

And before someone asks why he's not been recruited to IU as a quarterback it's because he's listed as only 5' 10"

[Miller'sTheMan 1,652]

Threw for 4 TD's and ran for another tonight.

 

Allen also told him he's a QB recruit now, not an athlete.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,668]

Pretty easy week for Taylor and Ben Davis as they pounded North Central 58-14.  It was 37-0 at halftime so I doubt Taylor played all that much in the second half.  He was 9-12 for 147 yards in passing and only 2 rushes for 2 yds.

I'm already calling that this guy starts at QB for IU next season

Nope!   If he's ever going to be our QB, then I would expect a redshirt freshman year.

Actually he will at least to start the off season and fall camp. IU coaching staff told him he is one of their QB recruits for this class he is no longer their athlete or being recruited as a DB. Coaches have told him he will be given a chance to earn a spot at QB. They want the ball in his hands as much as they can get it there.

Good thing you're not one of the people in charge of making any important decisions
