“I’d like to settle in (at guard), but I think we’ve got guys that are capable,” Taylor said. “I like where we are at. I think we’ve got young guys that are ascending. I think we’ve got veterans that absolutely can get in there and get the job done so I feel real comfortable with where we are at there.”
