Taylor was hired in April, following the resignation of longtime head coach Lon Stiner a month earlier.[2][3] Taylor was a native of Ann Arbor, Michigan, and played football for the Michigan Wolverines in the 1920s. At the time of his hiring, he told the press: "I'm a Michigan man and I like the Michigan system. We'll have the single wingback, in all probability, with my own variations."[4]
