6'0" 185 lbs outfielder Devin Taylor from Cincinnati, LaSalle. Rated as #3 player from OH (#1 outfielder) and #16 nationally in 2022 class. Apparently an excellent hitter.....hit close to .500 as a 15 year old freshman last year, with extra-base power. In a story I saw, in 18 games he had it .469, with 3 HRs and 29 RBIs. Led his league in HRs & RBIs, 2nd in BA. Only negative I can see is he does not have elite speed.
Obviously, he may never end up at IU......in any event it is encouraging that IU is beginning to hit Ohio pretty hard in recruiting---Stahl & Jesse in '19; Brennan Rowe & Max Johnson (both SSs) in '20 & '21; McKay Whitaker & Devin Taylor in '22.
One other recruiting story of note--IU recruits Kip F., Costa S., Zach B., and Casper C. are now rated 2,3,5 & 8 in PBR's Top 10 in Indiana for the '20 class.
