down 7-0 HT the CV coach decided to pull the QB and put Foster in to run the wildcat. well, 4 minutes left in 3Q and it's now 14-7 CV with Foster scoring both TD in wildcat. All this despite a recurring cramp in his right leg....

According to my sources we lead before Pitt started the season. This could help us or others with Johnson the big OT. He has called bama is dream school ,but location is a huge factor. Also, Tunsil is down too 2 schools ( Bama , UGA). We lead. Henry is going to take on the lead recruiter role for this class.
2 more tackles would be awesome, lets hope things don't change regarding Henry or your sources.
well the worst of Foster came out last night. after his team scored in OT to get within 1 the coach called a Wildcat for Foster. He ran to the left and nothing was there so ran back to the right where a WIDE OPEN (talking no coverage) receiver is standing at the goal line. All he has to do is flip the ball 10 yards and they win. Instead he tucks it, cuts back inside into 4-5 defenders, and dropped at the 2...game over, CV loses their #1 ranking
really selfish stuff. awful
he is a kid VERY SURE of his ability and wants to play right away. Pitt has 2 of their top 3 (saddler, shanahan) WR graduating after this season while Bama have piled up the WR and ATH recruits. Don't doubt this will play strongly in his thinking.
remember, Pitt recently put both Jonathan Baldwin (from right up the road of where Foster lives) and Larry Fitzgerald into pros at WR. We've got Julio but Fitz isn't a bad recruiting tool and Baldwin (1st rounder) not too shabby.
Where Foster lives is right next to where both Baldwin and Revis are from (and Sean Gilbert, Tony Dorsett, and others before them). Other than Ty Law it's more or less a Pitt factory
ok, will give him that although if you saw the play it is impossible that he didn't see him. anyway, i'd have done the same thing if i was the most talented football player in PA
... i'm sure he wishes he had it back. he'll get another chance at Montour, likely for the regional titleMontour is their nemesis. last year Montour, in the playoffs, stopped them on the 1 to win the western PA title. these two teams will meet again in the AAA playoffs...guaranteed (well, they seem to always meet in title game anyway).
was a hell of a football game and Foster was fantastic as always. I think he only caught one quick screen pass but they don't throw a whole lot. Using him at wildcat with a recurring cramp for nearly all of 2H and having him almost single-handed beat the #3 team in class AAA is a testament to his talent.
still say he's Pitt-bound but either way i'll have fun watching him in college
there's a reason he's a WR and not a QB.
That is very wide receiver like. :biggrin:
all indications up north are foster is pretty much a lock to pittsburgh...unless his baby and his babys momma can find a way to tuscaloosa. also grades are still a problem
Hmm ... that's the first I'd heard about those factors. Doesn't sound good, then.
I was hoping Pitt would continue to struggle like they did in first 2 games, but then they beat VaTech and can sell the whole "we're rebuilding now, but on right track" pitch to kids. I thought it'd be tough to pull a kid from so far away, but we'll see.
My thinking, too. I don't recall reading or hearing about him having a child prior to this.
Thanks for the link. Sounds like the perfect kind of player for our program. Good kid with a level head.
