Evan Taylor counts this past weekend’s official visit to Rutgers football an unquestioned success.
A 6-foot-2, 185-pound defensive back from Cuthbertson High School (Waxhaw, NC), Taylor has 31 total tackles and five interceptions over the past two seasons. The class of 2024 prospect is quickly gaining attention and momentum on the recruiting front, with two Big Ten offers coming in the last two weeks.
In March, he received his first offer via East Carolina. In late May, Taylor was offered by Rutgers followed by Nebraska.
The trip to Rutgers, he said, showed him a different side of the program.
“It was awesome. I had a greatt time and was surrounded by outstanding coaches and staff. Very thankful for the hospitality they showed me and my family,” Taylor told Rutgers Wire.
“Had the chance to see what Rutgers is really about and absolutely enjoyed it.”
His parents also joined him on the official visit.
“They loved the visit and enjoyed it just as much as I did,” Taylor said. “Rutgers really took care of us and showed us a great ttime.”
Taylor has an official visit to East Carolina for this weekend and then he will be at Nebraska the weekend of June 16. Taylor said he is planning to announce his commitment sometime before his senior season.

Rutgers certainly left a positive impression on Taylor following his official visit this past weekend.
“That family is an important thing there,” Taylor said. “Everyone has a bond together are just like family there.”
