I mentioned the verbal commitment from PG Tony Taylor before, but GW just released that he has signed a Letter of Intent with the school for next season. I'm glad they released some good news after Travis King's season was ended with knee surgery - maybe that was the idea. But in any case, he sounds good.
Taylor is a 5'11 scoring point guard who averaged 22 points, 6.8 assists, and 4.9 rebounds while hitting 56 threes for Archbishop Stepinac High School in White Plains, NY. GW coach Karl Hobbs and Taylor's coach Tim Philp had a lot of praise for him:

"I feel he is going to make an immediate impact on our program. Tony brings all the intangibles we look for in a student-athlete. He's a guard with terrific speed and court vision who can create plays. What separates him is his ability to shoot from three-point range. He also is a very goal-oriented student-athlete."

"Tony has an unbelieveable basketball IQ," Philp said of Taylor. "He is extremely consistent, a great passer and a terrific shooter who makes everyone around him better. He is a pure point guard who can shoot like a 2 guard."
