I believe. Just an odd thing regarding a 4 star.

Why would it be like that?

Some worries about grades, discipline, or injury? I have not heard anything like that.

I doubt he is somehow "under the radar."

Maybe just such a strong ISU lean that nobody else is going to bother?

Wow that’s kind of surprising. Hmmm next guy I guess
I think it was CW on Twitter said a couple weeks ago that although Stute is from Minnesota originally, it would be tough to get him away from the east coast now that he's in DC for high school.

I don't know the answer, but I would imagine him moving schools could've played into him missing evaluation periods? I am not certain why he doesn't have a large offer list, but there is still plenty of time lol

Yeah. I am no expert on recruiting but I follow. Just kind of an interesting scenario that is often not seen.

Rob Howe was able to talk to Xavier's Dad today... doesn't sound like the family had any plans of releasing a top 3 soon as was reported by Bain.

"If you’re a parent, you know that sometimes you’re among the last to know. DaJuan Foster can relate.
The father of highly-regarded 2020 in-state recruit Xavier Foster was caught off guard when his son told the Des Moines Register earlier this month that he was preparing to trim his list of prospective schools to three.
“I was as shocked as everyone else,” DaJuan said.
“I don’t know what his top schools are. Like I said, we never discussed it in depth. We had a quick conversation and then I’m reading in the Des Moines Register that he had a Top 3,” DaJuan said.
