Former Cyclone combo guard Mike Taylor caught up with Jared Larson on Thursday, Feb. 25, 2021. Check out Taylor’s website miketaylor88.com and his foundation’s website taylormadefoundation414.org. 

The duo touched on a myriad of topics, including but not limited to:

  • Taylor’s high school days in Milwaukee
  • The junior college experience felt at Chipola JC for Mike and to a lesser extent the community college experience felt at DMACC for Jared
  • Growing up in Milwaukee and being a positive outlet for the community
  • Having a preseason with then head coach Chris Jans (current New Mexico State coach) and then a season with then assistant coach Greg Heiar (who is now an assistant at ETSU)
  • How he chose between Iowa State and Minnesota
  • Outscoring Kevin Durant in college and outscoring Russell Westbrook in the NBA
  • Mike’s adventure at Iowa State good, bad and ugly
  • Playing against (as aforementioned) Kevin Durant and D.J. Augustin of Texas, Mike Conley, Daequan Cook and Greg Oden of Ohio State.
  • The Black experience in the United States involving discriminatory acts within police 

    • (Taylor and I both studied sociology at Iowa State)

    • Playing his last game as a Cyclone on the date of the passing of his best friend, Devin Venerable
    • Being cut instead of Allen Iverson while with the Grizzlies
    • Getting socks for his teammates overseas
