Auburn's taking the high road, but Bama just beat them out IMO. They have a long history that says Taylor would have been welcome on the plains.
Malzahn said publicly that he wouldn't recruit players with a history of domestic violence. He wouldn't let Taylor visit.

Well, Taylor did talk to Auburn from what I've read. If true, that suggests Malzahn was considering taking him. His statements may well be PR after Taylor showed more interest in Alabama. Even Auburn fans are saying that Auburn lost interest only after some domestic violence issues made news in the NFL, which may well have been a good excuse for Auburn to take the moral high ground in what was a lost cause.
I remember when Urban Meyer made similar statements about domestic violence, until it suited his needs to think otherwise. Malzahn's tolerance of guys like Newton, Marshall, Dyer, says that his ethics are quite flexible depending on the circumstance/need. I've also read about some of their top WR's that got into trouble several times, including one this season, but Gus managed to overlook it.
