Not a fast-talker in the bunch. Each completed the sentences they started. That is a great start to me.

Looks the part. Not a mumble mouth talking about leverage, eye discipline, execution.
Seemed a little nervous when talking OL, so that is probably still an issue.

OL injuries too ... so will be an area of concern I'm sure.

Elko had a very short, and to the point, answer regarding Foster. It didn't sound encouraging for him to play football.

Everyone went silent waiting for him to elaborate. I would be surprised if he lines up as a starter if at all next fall.jeff1971 said:

I agree with your comment. Foster had so much potential and talent as a true freshman starter and I wonder if Jimbo and Addazio coached that out of him. Oh well, it happens.

We should not disparage someone competing in another sport for the Aggies.
I expect Coaches talked with him and discussed the potential impact on his football PT.

It sounded encouraging for the football team tho
Foster is a bag of dough & total liability
Hope he's 3rd string this year

Foster has been a huge disappointment. You want to be a dual sport guy fine, but once it starts to negatively impact one of the teams it's time to pick one. Did missing all of the spring practices help him improve as a football player? Did it help the football team?

How good is Foster at the shot put? Does he have a reasonable shot at making the Olympic team? From the stats on 12th man, it doesn't look like it.

Not that good at all. He's middle of the pack at best. All the more infuriating that he chooses that over his teammates.
Just really shows that he's not about this life. More of a backup Center. Not a leader.
