The Equalizer: How 'lottery ticket' QB Kamario Taylor erases talent deficit for Mi…
Minnesota · Mississippi StateTaylor flashed his five-star potential as a freshman; now he's primed to make a name for himself on the national scene in a 3:30 p. Winning the lottery is nothing more than a daydream for most, but Mississippi State is on the verge of finding out exactly how it feels.
Taylor launched the pass from his own 26-yard line, and the ball landed in Johnson's arms at the 19-yard line of ULM. Taylor has all the tools to be a superstar.
His 6-foot-4 and 230-pound frame immediately stands out, and we've already seen a great example of his raw power from the pocket. In addition to his size and strength, Taylor can fly when he gets into open space, piling up more than 2,000 rushing yards in his high school career.
Taylor's athleticism helped him climb up the rankings, but there were still questions about whether he could put it all together at the college level. That ticket is very close to cashing for Mississippi State.
