Man I can't wait to get up to #Syracuse Wednesday for my visit. Gotta a feeling about it. Could be my football home for the next 4 years

Interesting. I wonder if IMG got him noticed, or if something came up that has us looking for more beef.

Assuming that he has in fact been contacted by the staff and this is official.

Definitely a lot of beef.
Don't know what the deal is, hence the ?.

From an article 3/3/2013 he was still in GA..

Foster was named First Team All-Region, First Team All-Savannah, and was an Honorable Mention for the All-State team.

Shortly after he transferred to IMG in Florida. Something happened and it doesn't look like grades.

Looks hefty and slow to me. Not real athletic. Next to no lateral movement.

He can move people half his size out of the way. If that's what you're looking for.

He's def qualified. Those are good scores across the board.

Here are his highlights from Sophomore and Junior year in GA. Junior year starts about the 3:40 mark.

Maybe, with some academic financial aid available to a guy with good grades, not out of the question.

I think those were his grades out of GA.

Now this kid looks like a center that can block up the middle with authority.

Maybe DL?

Kid looked pretty solid to me for a preferred walk on. Nice get if he ends up here

Preferred walk on?

Somebody who slipped through the cracks due to injury?

Those seem like the two most likely explanations.

Can't judge the level of competition in his tape, but he looks pretty solid to me. Gets good push up the field. Versatile too - playing every position along the OL including blocking tight end. Looks a lot different in the IMG photo. Smart. Maybe a Center in a year or 2 after some S&C. Do we still have a slot available?

With Fisher leaving and Prater not qualifying we are still at plus one.

From what I could find his recruitment dropped off after he transferred to IMG. Before that he was attending SEC Jr days and was a top prospect in GA.

Bad picture of the guy, his twitter picture gives a better idea of his size

definitely looks the part.

 

[baggerbob]

Played center with QB not under center, so already a plus, has size just needs to get in the S&C program, and turn it all into lean muscle.
