Alphonse Taylor, a massive offensive lineman from Mobile, Alabama, has decided to decommit from Florida State, his high school coach revealed in a statement. Via Tomahawk Nation:
Alphonse Taylor Drops Florida State
Florida State loses a massive offensive lineman.
“After much deliberation and conversation, Alphonse Taylor has decided against attending Florida State University,” Riley’s statement said. “We have spent the greater part of the past two days discussing this decision and its ramifications. I have met with the family and they are in full support of their son and Florida State was notified of his decision this morning.
“As you are aware we frown upon this type of thing at Davidson and this has been discussed at great length with Alphonse. We are asking that he be allowed a couple of days to work through this and he will not be available or making any public statements concerning this or his future until sometime Friday.”
I have not (and to my knowledge, nobody has) seen any quote from Taylor. There is speculation from many camps that Taylor will try to get on with Alabama. I do not know if Alabama has room.
