BAYLOR 2024 RECRUITING COMMITMENT LIST

The Bears became his first Power Five offer at the end of March and the staff remained in contact with the defensive line prospect ever since as he has built a strong connection with a few coaches on staff including Dennis Johnson, Matthew Powledge, and Dave Aranda.

“Man the people, the love, the atmosphere, and the staff [stood out].” he said following his official visit. “They really pushed what they valued more which is the Person over the Player and character development over the athlete development, building you as a man off the field.”

Foster took official visits to Arkansas, Georgia Tech, and Baylor before making his commitment decision.

The 6-foot-5, 265-pound prospect was a First-Team All-State defensive end during his junior season. He posted 48 tackles, 14.5 for loss, 10.5 sacks, and two forced fumbles as he helped lead St. Joseph to a MAIS Class 4A State Championship.

He chose Baylor over offers from Arkansas, Mississippi State, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, Louisville, Memphis, Tulane, and UAB among others.
