Alex Foster (2013 PF) includes UW in Top 5

  • http://247sports.com/Player/Alex-Foster-14075

    Evan, your retweet says: Alex Foster 6-9 2013 cuts list to Tennessee, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Harvard, plans on visiting Harvard this spring/summer.

    UW has not yet offered. Certainly good when you can make the cut without offering, but I do wonder what interaction the staff has had with him for us to be included. Do you think he could get an offer without Washington, Schilling, and Friedman all turning us down?

    I'm going to call him. I spoke with him last year and nothing was going on with Wisconsin other than he had been talking to Tracy Webster. Maybe he got an offer after that, but I'll check with him or his mom.

  • They Bulls-Eye website believes UW has offered. I remember reading very early that UW had offered, but I thought that was later shown to be not true.

    "6'7 2013 WF Alex Foster from De LaSalle says he is down to 5 schools: Harvard, Minnesota, Tennessee, Nebraska & Wisconsin. All have offered."

    Yeah after the rumored offer, I checked it out, and Foster didn't claim it. Since then, Wisconsin has never been mentioned with him until now. So I'll check it out.

  • Same HS as Schilling. Supposedly Harvard is the team to beat.

    I have read the same about Foster and Harvard. Of the two DeLaSalle guys, I would rather have Schilling, as I have heard some really good things about him. Sounds like he could be a primary target for the new Illini staff, which would presumably make things tough for UW. Hopefully UW is able to land Washington, but I will be very interested to see if they start pursuing other 2013 PFs more vigorously this summer.
