He played O-Line for Lafayette and was a coach during my time as a player. I rememer him as being a passionate and fun loving coach. He acted as a mentor for young African American guys on the team, and helped them achieve success at Lafayette. Very Sad news

So young - hadn't even entered his prime. God rest his soul.

Very true-- coach Taylor was a large man but I understand that he lost well over 100 lbs 2-3 years ago. I was very happy for him as he appeared to be on the path to good health and his career was going well. How quickly things can change.

I had heard that he was battling with complications due to diabetes. Glad that he was able to realize a dream of becoming a head coach, even if it was short lived. May he rest in peace

I don't think he would've liked that they dropped football and wiped it off their sports website. xsmhx
