Everyone, it seems, has caught on to Duke freshman Caleb Foster, who had a sensational game against Michigan State Tuesday night and, truthfully, it was a lot of fun. Foster played 29 minutes, shot 7-8 and 4-5 for threes for 18 points, had three rebounds and an assist.

He was a vital spark plug for at team that had a horrible first half and he deserves the lavish praise that coach Jon Scheyer gave him in the post-game presser.

But let’s keep it in perspective.

He scored 15 against Dartmouth, which doesn’t mean a lot because, no offense Big Green fans, it was Dartmouth, but and then played 13 minutes against Arizona and the only thing in his stat line that wasn’t zero was one personal foul.
