Is Saul also among the Prophets?

Is Saul also among the Prophets?

Does he also pretend to prophesy or give predictions about the future?! In essence, he mocks anyone who pretends to give predictions about the future or pretends to deal with something he does not understand. Or: An expression of surprise at someone joining a certain group of people (source: The people's surprise at seeing Saul prophesying in the company of prophets even though he was known as a warrior).

("And all his acquaintance were thirty men from Ethmol, and they looked, and, behold, he prophesied with the prophets. And the people said one to another, What manner of man is this that the son of Kish doth Saul also inquire of the prophets?" - 1 Samuel 11:1)

Definition (Hebrew)

הַאִם גַּם הוּא מִתְיַמֵּר לְהִתְנַבֵּא אוֹ לָתֵת תַּחֲזִיּוֹת לְגַבֵּי הֶעָתִיד?! בִּטּוּי מְלַגְלֵג עַל מִי שֶׁמִּתְיַמֵּר לָתֵת תַּחֲזִית לֶעָתִיד אוֹ מִתְיַמֵּר לַעֲסֹק בְּדָבָר שֶׁאֵינוֹ מֵבִין בּוֹ. אוֹ: הַבָּעַת תְּמִיהָה עַל מִי שֶׁהִצְטָרֵף לִקְבוּצַת אֲנָשִׁים מְסֻיֶּמֶת (הַמָּקוֹר: הַפְתָּעַת הָעָם לִרְאוֹת אֶת שָׁאוּל מִתְנַבֵּא בַּחֲבֵר נְבִיאִים בְּעוֹד שֶׁהוּא הָיָה יָדוּעַ כְּגִבּוֹר חַיִל).

("וַיְהִי כָּל יוֹדְעוֹ מֵאִתְּמוֹל שִׁלְשׁוֹם וַיִּרְאוּ וְהִנֵּה עִם נְבִאִים נִבָּא וַיֹּאמֶר הָעָם אִישׁ אֶל רֵעֵהוּ מַה זֶּה הָיָה לְבֶן קִישׁ הֲגַם שָׁאוּל בַּנְּבִיאִים"- שְׁמוּאֵל א י יָא)
