Ryan Taylor isn’t a traditional graduate transfer. He wasn’t a once heralded recruit that, for three years, competed for playing time at a power conference school. He isn’t a mid-major player looking to make a name for himself in pursuit of a professional basketball career. When the 6-foot-5 guard averaged 21.3 points per game and shot 42.4 percent from beyond the arc last season, he already did that.
Ryan Taylor also isn’t the traditional Northwestern basketball player. He’s a high-volume scorer that poured in nearly one-third of Evansville’s points per game last season, both of which would have led Northwestern last season.
