For sure a walk-on?

 

[Libero2]

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

when did it become known Praeter didn't qualify? how did I miss that?

Anomander mentioned it in a thread on the FB forum.

@Will6786 @the_dome_guy @IBleedOrange1 just ate at dinosaur BBQ and it was delicious! Thanks for the advice. Gotta love good BBQ!!

Nobody has officially not qualified at this point.

If this kid is taking an official visit I doubt he's a walk-on.

It's not an official visit, and this kid is definitely a preferred walk-on

as for Prater he hasn't officially not qualified, but needed a lot of work to do last i heard

Shafer referenced it after national signing day. He said it was worth taking a risk on him, because he was a good kid and a good athlete, but he knew it'd be an uphill climb for Praeter to qualify this year.

He paid for the Dino then.

 

[Upstate]

He paid for the Dino then.

Totally worth it.

 

[anomander]

He paid for the Dino then.

ya he was asking on twitter for recommendations of places to check out while he was in Syracuse. I think he said he was up here for 5 days or so.

 

[SUinNYC]

According to twitter, he just committed as a preferred walk on. Welcome aboard. Great addition and quality player as a walk on no less. No downside to this at all.

 

[anomander]

yep, this is a great pick up for a non-scholarship player

Syracuse football recruiting: Donnie Foster commits to SU as walk-on

 

[retro44]

hopefully this kid works his way into a scholarship.

 

[Cuseregular]

hopefully this kid works his way into a scholarship.

after looking at that film, I have no doubt that he will. They'll round him up into shape in a year or two and with that explosiveness off the ball I have no doubt he'll be a player here one day. Good combo that size and that first step, once he gets some strength he looks to be like a Scott Kiernan type.

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

Surely I'm not the only person who saw that photo and immediately thought..."Labatt's Blue Light in a can."

Does he drive a vintage pick-up truck too? ;-)
