Bruce Taylor is one of the top linebacker prospects in the class of 2008. He received close to double-digit verbal offers this spring following his performance last season as a sophomore, when the 6-3, 240-pound star racked up an amazing 205 total tackles for Myrtle Beach High School (S.C.), earning Sun Times Toast of the Coast Defensive Player of the Year and all-region VII-AAA honors as a result.

The standout prospect may be very close to making a decision and Virginia Tech is right in the thick of things.
