The first year player was recently named to the Adidas Freshman All-American team. Taylor will not be allowed to play in the freshman all-star game because of a TSSAA rule that prohibits players in such games until they have completed playing eligibility on the high school level.
Howes had 725 yards rushing and 219 yards receiving and scored 12 touchdowns.
Cody Howes took a kickoff 93 yards for a TD during the 2014 season.
