The kid couldn't play and didn't he transfer once or twice more and wasn't good enough to play there? I remember when Jeff Gordon and his conrads over on 550 AM were critical of Mizzou when they took the redshirt off Corby Jones(they said that he got to start was because his dad was a coach on the team) and started him over John McArthur who was rated the #1 qb in the country according to the St. Louis based Sporting News. He transfered to Northwestern and never was heard from again. He was their 4th string qb.

Couldn't play is an over statement. Couldn't play at this level? I'd agree with that. As I said, as many parents do, his probably thought more of him than he actually was.
Yepp, he went to Louisville for a day. Had his watch, wallet and some stuff stolen on day one from the locker room and left. Went to UCF and backed up Bortles. Think he's an agent of some sort now.
My question, and not just as it's related to him, but I never understood when coaches say there is a QB competition and then one QB plays behind the #1's on the OL and throws to the #1's at WR with the #1 RB taking some pressure off playing against backups and #2's on defense. On the other side, another guy plays behind the backup OLinemen who are fending off the #1 Dline, throwing to the scrub WR's who are covered by your best cover guys with backup RB's losing yardage every time they're given the ball. It seems they should get equal playing time with both.

Recent visit by Tyler Shough recapped here LINK
Interesting bama just offered him. I wonder if bama thinks Foster's continuing to have Mizzou on top has them looking elsewhere?

Foster doesn't have a committable offer from Bama.
Posted on 4/18/17 at 3:27 pm to wubilli
Ah. It looks like he has an offer on 247 and rivals but they've been known to be wrong.

It's not really that they are wrong, it's just not all offers are equal. Alabama has offered, they also wouldn't accept a commitment from Foster. At least not today.

Glad he didn't wait until June.
Besides wins (maybe almost equal to wins) I think convincing out of state dudes with big talent and offers to come to Missouri is the best way to keep the 10.
This is gonna help for sure.

We have another commit that is keeping it hush hush for a few more weeks. Good get.
Good to hear some momentum building.

That's a huge get for Odom. Beat out some big time programs for him. Lots of credit to Heupel on this one.
He also has a 4* DT teammate that we are in good shape with. :nana:

Really? He looks to good to be true. Hopefully I'm wrong.
Huge to get Foster confirmed. He is a great get and will end up 4 star by the end of his senior year.

It seems Foster is close with Kamryn Babb. From Rock m nation:
The thought is he may be the football version of MPJ and be a big recruiter for several other big players. Perfect for a qb to give a leader vibe to help people feel good about the future of the program.

Foster is also reportedly close with top Missouri’s top target in-state receiver prospect, Kamryn Babb, and if the Tigers landed the quarterback’s commitment, it could sway him to become a Tiger as well.

I cant see us getting Babb, but its good to see that Foster is doing his best to help us recruit.
Posted on 4/19/17 at 7:33 pm to JesusQuintana
sounds an awful like a situation we know all to well right now

also siap but saw this on the UGA board.
"I'm told by Danny West of our Arkansas site that Akial Byers, a 2017 Alabama signee who was headed for the junior college route, will visit Georgia this weekend for G-Day following a Missouri visit last week"
I wonder how the visit went. His recruiting pages suck, but thats mostly due to the fact as noted it seemed he was juco bound from the start. besides, committed to bama? say no more fam.
