Pitt coach Jeff Capel directs his team during the first half of an NCAA college basketball game against Duke in Durham, N.C., Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2025.

Jeff Capel and Pitt men’s basketball struck again Wednesday, landing a second four-star Class of 2026 prospect this weekend in power forward Chase Foster.

Foster, a 6-foot-8, 210-pound recruit out of IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla., joins his teammate, guard Jermal Jones, who announced a commitment to the Panthers on Friday.

Villanova, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Florida State, Illinois, USC, Washington and a long list of other high-major suitors offered Foster, ranked by On3/Rivals as the No. 38 player nationally within his class.

Foster also ranked as the No. 5 overall player in Florida and No. 6 power forward on the market.

Like Jones, Foster transferred to IMG Academy, having previously played high school basketball at Edmondson-Westside in Baltimore, Md.
