STAFF PICKS: Xavier Foster

[Sigmapolis]

Math issues??? Jacobson being a Senior makes three. That was the entire point four is bare minimum regardless of how bad he is.

Meh. They'll find somebody. College basketball rosters are constantly turning over.

 

[BoxsterCy]

Because of the nature of recruiting, the staff has to be a good sport about it, but this did harm recruiting other options I assume.

A big in your face funny for the dad but playing it for his own Hawk amusement did and does put us off from recruiting a kid somewhere with honest interest in ISU.

 

[Drew0311]

All joking aside I'm sorry guys. The puppet masters in his recruitment played us. There was extreme confidence with him for months. Not the first time it's happened to ISU and won't be the last

I would say I’m the future to not make guarantees. Just say you have heard good things. Actually you should probably quit giving inside info since you were so horribly wrong. You are not really trustable as an inside source anymore.

 

[Cyforce]

am I missing something here? Fran has had a pretty consistent rebuild, nothing crazy but decent.

Trash year 1
Snuck into NIT
NIT finals
NCAA round 1
NCAA Round 2
NCAA Round 2
NIT
Bad year
NCAA Round 2 lost in OT

Buying into the propaganda that Dayton really is considered "in" the tournament?

It's recruiting. Things change all the time.

just so you know you’re going to get banned.

Right. Probably not smart to make a guarantee.

i would recommend you figure out how to use one user name. It’s weird you can’t do that.

 

[CloniesForLife]

Oh I agree. I would never make that guarantee. But anyone who believed anything was 100% in this situation is pretty naive. Obviously I was optimistic with the inside info coming out but nothing is sure until someone is on campus.

Thank you for the advice!

 

[Hawkmi]

It's an 18 year old involved in a highly publicized recruiting war between rival in-state schools. Of course things can change at the drop of a hat. I appreciate everyone trying to give insight into the situation and sharing any information that they were privy to. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if things changed between now and tomorrow morning.

 

[Cat Stevens]

Or you never had any inside info to begin with and make **** up for attention. Given you're the most prolific troll on this forum I'll go with option #2.

Actually you have number one wrapped up, and the competition is pretty strong. So good job

 

[Bytheriver]

Foster is the real loser in this if he chooses Iowa.. So, if that's the way it bounces I guess we should feel sorry for him.

Was he ever?

Pretty sure CyTwins just gets his info from 247 and pretends it’s his. At least that’s my suspicion based on the timing of what’s posted over there by some respected posters, then he posts similar things here shortly after.

I feel sorry for Foster. Hopefully it works out for him, but I doubt it will.

 

[isuno1fan]

@CyTwins - are you saying the dad told staff he was coming to ISU or that dad is pushing Foster to Iowa? Or both?

He’s saying he really didn’t know jack squat the whole time.

 

[Pharmacy99]

He’s saying he really didn’t know jack squat the whole time.

Gee, you showed up again. Have you been here when something good happened to ISU? You should change your name to ISUNO1pretendingFan

That's not true but OK. I'd love to hear some examples of when I did that
