Taco was a three sport athlete. Football, baseball , and basketball in which he won the State Championship his junior year before graduating early to pursue his football career at the University of Michigan, under the Head Coach Brady Hoke. Which was a transition coming from Ohio the Buckeye State but it worked for his good . He received his degree and was drafted first round 28th pick in the 2017 draft by the Dallas Cowboys.
