Kansas State sophomore star Marcus Foster has been dismissed from the program, the school announced Tuesday night.

Foster, a member of the preseason all-Big 12 first team and an all-Big 12 honorable mention in 2014-15, was suspended three games in February for violating team rules. His minutes, points, assists, 3-point and overall field goal percentages were all down this season compared to last year. He averaged 12.5 points per game for Kansas State this season.

Marcus Foster (2), an all-Big 12 preseason selection, averaged 12.5 points per game for Kansas State this season.
Foster overcame the odds after failing to attract many Division I offers out of high school. The Wichita Falls, Texas, native wasn't even a top-10 prospect in his own state.

So one can assume either a)drugs/alcohol abuse or b) some domestic issue right?

Must have been really bad to get kicked off the team. With the hardship rule change, he couldn't play for us next year anyways.

We have enough of a logjam of guards as it is.

Nic
Sterling
Emelogu
Sed
Shake
Jarrey

If Keith comes back, that's seven. And we have LaGerald Vick already committed for 2016. We may lose a ship or two to the NCAA sanctions, we need to use whatever is left on a big man.

End of thread.
