Guthrie’s Foster among reporting OSU freshmen
By Scott Wright
Guthrie star athlete Donte’ Foster was among a group of true freshmen to report to Oklahoma State for summer school classes, and to begin taking part in summer workouts with the football team earlier this week.
Foster, who had several NCAA Division I scholarship offers in basketball, but only a few in football, is walking on as a receiver for the 2009 season with the possibility of gaining a scholarship later in his career.
Many schools, OSU included, chose not to recruit Foster much in football, because of a belief that he was only interested in playing basketball. But the 6-foot-2, 190-pounder was a standout player on the football field for Guthrie.
The Cowboys began recruiting him late in the recruiting year — initially as a defensive back — but never offered a scholarship. After some attrition at wide receiver, the Cowboys approached Foster about playing there, which was also his primary position in high school.
