Leonard Taylor Goes Blue

Michigan has commitment No. 2 in the 2018 class and he also hails from Springfield High School in Springfield, Ohio, the same high school as the first commitment of the class, inside linebacker Antwuan Johnson. Sophomore tight end Leonard Taylor announced via Twitter that he had committed to the Wolverines just after the spring game.

Taylor chose the Wolverines over programs like Cincinnati, Kentucky, Louisville, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Penn State, Tennessee, and most notably, Ohio State.

The 6-5, 240-pounder is listed as a tight end but has the athleticism and size to potentially play on the defensive line as well. He was in the house for Michigan's spring game with Johnson and other Ohio friends like Jackson Carman of Fairfield and a contingent from Pickerington Central.
