Coach Haywood announced on Twitter this evening that sophomore running back JR Taylor left the team. This departure feels much like that of former QB Clay Belton, who also left the team two weeks earlier. Like Belton, Taylor found himself farther down on the depth chart than he envisioned himself. In 2008 he ran for over 100 yards in consecutive games and received the game ball in Miami’s only MAC victory of the season. This year, however, Haywood buried Taylor behind three other running backs on the depth chart. According to Haywood’s twitter post, Taylor will continue attending Miami University.
