Thoughts: Travis was a pickup last year out of Houston, Texas, walking on along with 18-20 other young men across the country to join the Cards. Taylor played for St. Thomas High School down there in southern Texas where he lined up at guard almost exclusively. Check out some of his sweet Texas highlights below:

While it may seem a bit odd for Taylor to travel all the way up to The Ville to walk-on ‘Cardinal Authority’ shed some light on the connection last year, noting that his cousin (Chris Thieneman, Fball, ’85) played for the Cards on the gridiron and his grandfather (Steve Riley) was dropping buckets for the birds back in the 50’s. Welcome home Travis, glad to keep the family tradition rolling.
