Compact Guards in Columbus



Stevie Taylor the 5'8 lightning quick Point guard has the total feel for the game. Can score at will and is so quick that its so hard to stay in front of him. He is known for embarrasing and exposing who's checking him wether its dancing with him with cross over moves or draining the three in his face. He plays the whole game with a smirk or a smile which shows he's having fun. He has a lot of flair to his game and at tournaments he tends to attract a lot of spectators, maybe it could be because all the hype behind him, his powerful OBC Showstoppers AAU team, or the way he puts on a show? Stevie can do what he puts his mind to. Some games, more so the non competitive games he goes out throws plenty of dimes and swaggers around the floor with his head up and his little limp. Games that go to the wire Stevie tries to go for 20 plus. Ohio State and Akron are rrecruiting heavily on Taylor.


Isiah Roger's is a 5'4 freshman guard from Westerville Ohio. A small crafty guard with handle's and a great one-on-one play maker. He has been playing up an age group with the All Ohio Red/White program and held his own againts the older players. A few years ago he was a shure shot as far as the Top player in the state of Ohio where he just went crazy on dominating the AAU State tournament. Now Isiah is one of the top 3 Point guards in Ohio. One thing many people know Isiah lacks is size. if he was to add about four more inches or so that could really help him out as far as finishing in the lane, but he is pretty decent in the lane he uses his nice studder-step, head fake move finishing with a little push shot or floater. Time will come with this young player and he will keep improving and I see him as a Big Time D1 player. So does Ohio State.
