Ep. 10: Nate Taylor
Nate Taylor is a fresh voice now covering the Indiana Pacers. His first day with the Indianapolis Star was in September at Pacers training camp. Taylor, a graduate of the University of Central Missouri, previously was a do-it-all journalist for the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. He is married and has an infant son, Hayden. This week on the Vigilant Sports Pacers Podcast, I talk with Taylor, who offers a fresh perspective on the Pacers with the 2015-16 season halfway over. The Pacers are 22-19, on pace to finish with a 44-18 record, good for seventh in the Eastern Conference. Subscribe to the Pacers Podcast on iTunes or on Stitcher.
