DJ Foster

Not sure if you guys saw this but he ran for 508yds and 10tds this weekend.

On 20 carries! That's a 25.4 yard average. One out of every two carries was a touchdown. Unbelievable.

Yep. I almost went to the game too, but didn't. I was going to take my son, but my wife had other plans. Sucks that I missed it. Man, I hope he becomes a Duck!

Does Foster's team play at the highest classification in Arizona High School Football?

Good question. Where's Grandpaduck, he usually knows.

If memory serves, Foster plays at the AAA level, which is the highest classification in Arizona (Minimum enrollment, 619)

Looks like the state of Arizona has 6 classification levels and his team plays in the 4A level.

Longtime UO alum lurker that resides in AZ. Scottsdale high schools are AAA(formerly 4a-1). There are two classifications that are above this. Most of the east valley schools play in the AAAAA(formerly 5a-1) including powerhouses Hamilton and Chandler High. Most of the schools in this classification have huge enrollments 2,500-4,500 students. I'm not sure a high school in Oregon(maybe Portland) would have enough kids to be in the top division. Both my kids recently graduated and had close to 1,000 kids in their senior classes.

Even though Saguaro and Chapparal(Scottsdale High Schools) are in the smaller class and they play a high level of football, probably at a level that is better than the top level in Oregon. There are 8-10 d-1 prospects every year out of the league that they play in.

Az Football is vastly underrated and very good especially in the east valley.

DOH!!!

I stand corrected.

I know Oregon schools aren't too big. My high school is in it's second year in 5A and we have <300 kids in our senior class. Before that we were in 6A which was the top division.

Ducks have had a handful of recruits from Chapparal I believe. Also, Arizona recruits in the past have always been solid contributors to the Ducks. Definitely DJ Foster would keep that pipeline rolling.

Read that it might be delayed again, and that he was wearing Oregon gear at school. He could be trolling us hard or maybe his brain and the Ucla game told him all he needed to know. A lot of people still feel that he is Asu's to lose though. What is everybody else hearing?

I think that the longer he waits, the better our chances are.

This week Foster is expected to make his college announcement during the telecast of Tom Lemming's recruiting show on CBS Sports Network. The taping will record on Wednesday and air on Thursday. 3 days ago

I live four blocks from Saguaro and walk by there every day while taking my youngest son to the elementary school next door to them. The classification for Saguaro is exactly right. However, Chapparal moved up one classification last year (or year before).

There's a lot of people mad at the Saguaro head coach right now because he just "rested" several of his starters, including Foster, in a season ending game against Chapparal and they lost 65-0. These were the two defending state champions from each classification and it was a bitter annual rivalry before Chapparal moved up, so even though it really was a meaningless game that was right before the playoffs, it still ticked a lot of people off.

Both Hamilton and Chandler High have been regulars in the USA Today Top-100, but Saguaro was in there for a couple years too. I believe they've won the state championship in their classification 4 of the past 5 years and at one time had a 37 game win streak going.
