Where did this idea that Marcus Foster isn't a good defender originate from?

from people watching him, would be my guess.

I've been impressed with Foster stepping up his defense in some recent games.

Quote from: dal9 on February 09, 2014, 10:34:50 AM
yes, his D is definitely not below average or anything at the college level

yes it is. well below (big 12) average.

Did you watch the Texas and WVU games?

yes. i didn't focus on foster's defense during the texas game. i did for a few minutes during the wvu game, but not most of the game. but i've watched him a lot throughout the season. it's very unlikely he's changed much in such short time period.

He made a difference in the WVU game when we put him on Staten. He started the game on Taylor vs UT and I think he did a great job of keeping him out of the lane. Taylor ended up with a decent game, but most of it came in the 2nd half after the game was decided.

don't recall anyone in a kstate uniform causing staten any problems whatsoever in the 2nd game.

When K-State went on their run to go from down 7 with a little over 5 minutes left to down 1 with the ball with less than 3 minutes the major change was Foster on Staten. Staten shot 0 FTs and missed 2 lay-ups during that span.

my guess is small sample size/luck. i think the chances that he significantly improved in the last few weeks are very low, and i'm very confident in my earlier observations.

i'll try to watch him on defense during the ku game.

i've decided that it would be really good for the ksu cats if marcus foster broke jpullz scoring record over the next 3.25 years!

i tried. it was a pretty exciting game, so i just watched the ball some of the time. and i stopped trying to watch after he twisted his ankle. i didn't see anything to suggest that i had been wrong, or that he had significantly improved. ku didn't do much to test him. baylor should do more, i'll try and watch him again in that game.

my KU friend is trying to convince me that Marcus Foster will go pro after this year. He is completely convinced

Lemme know when one surfaces... I saw it happen live in the Ferrell center and am eager to see multiple angle replays.

He may surpass Beasley/Pullen as my favorite ever by the end of his career.

Lucas Scoopsalot · « **Reply #169 on:** February 16, 2014, 03:05:47 PM »

I just don't want him to get to big of a head that cuts into his work ethic.

he won't even be in my top 10 by the end of the season:

Jake
Beaz
Bill
Curt
Cartier
Rod
Dom
MI3
JamSam
Massey

edit: he very well could break into the top 3-5 by the end of his senior year tho.
