Men's Basketball: Freshman Taylor plans on doing a lot of running

415

When watching Pitt’s next game, make sure you look closely.

Pitt grabs a defensive rebound, rebounder turns, outlet pass, dribble drive and dish — and it’s an easy transition point in the ideal world.

Odds are that freshman Dante Taylor will be the first one down the court — unless, of course, he’s the one grabbing the rebound. Then, he’ll be the second one down the court.

Either way, Taylor brings a high-octane game to the court.

Immediately after losing last year’s core of DeJuan Blair, Sam Young and Levance Fields, Pitt receives Taylor.
