The Cards picked up commitment number 14 for the class of 2014 when Union County High School (Union, SC) wide receiver/cornerback T.J. Foster committed to Charlie Strong and staff. He is listed at 6’3 and 180 lbs. A 6’3 wide receiver or cornerback is a weapon for sure.
Foster’s commitment to the Cards could be bigger than some people think. He is from South Carolina, which is right in the heart of ACC country. Currently, Louisville only has 1 player on the roster from South Carolina, and that is redshirt freshman CB Devontre Parnell. If Foster can come in and make an impact, that could open up another territory for Coach Strong and his staff to get into because other players from the area will take notice.
One reason you may not know much about Foster yet? He has only played 1 year of high school football! If that 1 year was enough for Strong to offer a scholarship, then I am on board with that decision!
