Xavier Foster Injury
- Thread starter hawk_it
- Start date
That's a bad injury for basketball players. Hope he's ok and can come back strong.
Are you saying Iowa might catch a "break" in recruiting here?
To me it doesn't change things much. He still will have the same opportunity to blow up next year like Carton did. Maybe just delays the process and strings along Iowa longer.
Foster update per Matt Bain:
Foster will miss this week of basketball in Milwaukee due to a hairline fracture in his foot, his dad and AAU coach told me.
This will have zero impact on his recruitment. It's a minor injury; Foster doesn't even need to walk in a boot, and he might be back ready to go as soon as the final July evaluation period (July 25-29).
Colleges looking at him have been focusing on, and will continue to focus on, the highly skilled 6-foot-11 kid standing in front of them.

After carton, I'm not going to get all caught up in the foster recruitment
I hear you there. Although DJ did grow up in Illannoy until a couple of years ago... That'll taint a person.
Hope Foster is ok. And it is a minor setback for him... Who knows it could be a good thing for him to take a break from ball for a month or three... It's a grind and he has plenty of time to put on a show.
Whether a compression or a break, it's not a good thing for Xavier for about the next two-three months.
If he reads these posts he might come to Iowa just to make you more miserable than you are right now. He might be a positive person instead of a negative person like you.

Top college in state kids all go elsewhere. It’s a fact. What I said wasn’t negative old timer. It’s just reality.
I don't buy this for a minute. I've heard from friends of the Foster family that he and his family are big time Hawk fans, have built a strong relationship with the Iowa staff, and Xavier does (and always has) want to be a Hawk.
Unfortunately, I understand that his dad would like to go to a blue blood and he is actively handling his recruitment. I do agree that he is likely going to a blue blood though.
Your forum name Fransucks seem negative on an Iowa site. I'm sure you're a really positive person when it comes to all Hawkeye sports.
Oh, and a few top college players leave the state and a few stay. We have two four star recruits named MCaffery that are staying, just this year one recruit named Wieskamp (four star) Bohannon Kriener and Pemsl all three stars going to Iowa. How many big name players have Iowa State recruited from the state in the past 5 years. Oh, that's totally different
Glad you're employer has such a positive person on his payroll....
50- 50 that he stays in state, but you know the other schools walk him past their galleries of NBA all-star alums, and the prettiest girls on campus just happen to be in his range of vision.
I heard the same about Carton and the hawks. It was just speculation by folks really wanting it to be true.
100% of the ISU lean rumors for Foster come from dipshit ISU trolls
Says the guy pretending to be an Iowa fan on an Iowa board
When did I ever post that I was an Iowa fan? Let me save you some time, I didn't
This particular statement about going out of state is very true. But we all know that wasn't your point. You like to think you are deep and insightful, but in fact you are very transparent.
SMH. Clown trash.
Your schtick is old, and transparent like the previous poster.
Rich, very rich.
Take it for what it's worth but I also heard from a friend of the Fosters that Iowa was never a realistic option for him once he started to blow up. The only reason he keeps in touch with Iowa is a good PR move on his part. The Kid loves Duke and is just waiting on them to offer.
Just heard coach K has extended an offer and Foster has accepted soft verbal right now. He gone
He should tell Duke and Kansas to go f*** themselves because they win too much in basketball.
That's why.
That's why.
Too bad. If we had Foster (and DJ) we would be a blueblood... At least beating them anyhow.
I don't remember anyone saying that about Carton. It fact it was the opposite. In was pretty much accepted as common knowledge that Carton was not a Hawk fan.
Thats a weird quote and statement. Especially since that wasn't even from this thread.
If I decide to post something, the point is to be transparent.
