If you read the police report, one would know it would be very difficult to convict Xavier of this crime….. Right or Wrong can be debated.
Xavier Foster removed from team; target of sexual assault investigation
- Thread starter cyIclSoneU
- Start date
Former Iowa State basketball player Xavier Foster no longer a suspect in sexual assault investigation
Xavier Foster is "no longer being looked at as a potential suspect in the investigation” of a 2020 sexual assault, an Ames police commander said.www.desmoinesregister.com
Hmmm. Am I remembering correctly that the victim was with a group of guys, someone drugged her, and somebody later told her she had been assaulted by Foster?
I would have to assume that whatever DNA they collected didn't match Foster for him to be dismissed as a suspect.
He also acted childishly to tj with what he said to him, I’m completely fine with him being gone from the program.
He was also breaking team rules and a negative impact on the culture TJ wanted to establish.

Yeah TJ really had to set the tone. You only get to do that once when new.
From anti fan to boot licker in less than a regular season. Quite the heel turn.
nah, TJ still has to prove himself to show he’s the guy.
When you have a player tell the head coach that they need him more than he needs Iowa State, I’m more than happy to see him shown the door. If he’s actually working at Pella Windows now on the line, it’s pretty obvious he needed Iowa State more than they needed him.
Foster may get in a MVC team and average 10 ppg and 5 RPG. He just doesn’t have the drive to become great for his athleticism and size.
We would have been no better off with him this year. I believe he was probably rightly kicked off the team and charges dismissed doesn’t mean he didn’t do it.
Doesn't get more innocent than than walking away, like he just did.
TJ commentary at the time seemed to point to there being multiple reasons for being kicked off the team, if I remember correctly... who knows. I'd generally agree with the stance that he alone doesn't change this team much (and ik fact would make it worse if he didn't buy into TJ's system). It's not like Foster was the only one kicked out from the team.
Xavier will never be great. He also has feet problems multiple times. Hope he can get healthy and play somewhere and do good for himself but not Iowa state level.
There are far worse places to work with far less pay. He's probably making over $20 with full benefits. I was making about 7 bucks an hour when I was 19.
The experience of working an 8 hour shift at 20 yrs old might be a good thing for him and cause him to mature. Would be great if he turned his life around.
Give credit to his parents for making him work instead of sitting at home playing video games.
great, that still has nothing to do with my post.
He'll probably go JUCO at Indian Hills or something then end up in the MVC somewhere, if he's even still interested in playing basketball.
I worked at the one in Story City one summer when I stayed to work out for football. I quit after 3 weeks, absolutely the worst job I've ever had. I have no idea how someone can work a factory job like that for their entire work career. It was so boring that 8 hours would seem like 4 days.
I worked at an IBP one summer on the line cutting abscess out of pork. It was um something.
