Foster GS Eagles

This would fit in my "things that make you go 'hmmm'" category.
If serving is beneath you, then leading is beyond you.

Likely because GS just hired away Scot Sloan, who was recruiting coordinator while at App, and had a great track record recruiting within Georgia.

Hopefully, so. I'd prefer to land on the side of redemption rather than judgment ... usually.

Why?

Didn’t foster also have some rumored issues (among other things) about possible recruiting violations?

Yes, now that I recall he was sexting and or attempting to woo a recruit's mother while serving at some recruiting capacity on the stink's staff. Apparently he was exonerated. Or at least by stink standards.

I recall the recruit was from the Winston area , so maybe he was at App at the time. Either way, he's on the stink staff now.

I think that's why he's there and not here.

In June 2015, the university initiated an internal investigation into allegations that a former football assistant coach sent over 400 impermissible text messages in 2012-13 to the parent of a prospective student-athlete, a violation of NCAA Bylaw 13.4.1.2 (from the 2012-13 NCAA Manual) which limited electronically transmitted correspondence that may be sent to prospective student-athletes or their parents or legal guardians to email and facsimiles. The university immediately notified the NCAA and the Sun Belt Conference of the potential rules violation. The coach subsequently resigned prior to the 2015 season.
Both sides were married at the time. The husband of the mother found out and turned Foster in.

Correct.

FWIW, I don’t think that really has any effect on his role as recruiting coordinator. That’s more of an organizational responsibility as I understand it; it’s not like he’ll be contacting recruits and parents more than he already was.

He uses recruiting like Tinder.

I kid. He is a nice guy who made a mistake.
