What are our chances with this guy?

Not great.

However, he has stated that he wants to play on the east coast or in the north.

O$U is also all over Parker.

Shannon Scott, a top PG recruit in 2011, also Parker and Royal's high school teammate, has already committed to Ohio State.

Well, here's hoping he decides to ditch that zero of a conference and get with this hero of a conference.

Apparently there are going to be a lot of options for Parker:

•He’ approaching double digits in basketball offers, including Georgia, Georgia Tech, UConn, Florida and Ohio State.
•On Wednesday Duke offered Parker in both basketball and football.
•Georgia has verbally offered him in football and he has written football offers from Oklahoma State and Vanderbilt

Looks like Georgia or V. Tech for Mr. Parker

 

[bearcat jeff]

Recently named Florida State, Georgia, Northwestern, Ohio State, Oregon State, and Virginia Tech on his school list. Though he hails from Georgia, they are not high on his list. Cincinnati has offered.

From June 18th at the NBPA Camp:

He was in full attack mode on Thursday and was productive on both ends of the floor. Parker scored in a variety of ways and played with great energy and urgency. He used his strength and skill to score with 3s off the catch-and-dribble in transition as well as in the half court. He hit mid-range jumpers that included step-backs to create space and finished when he attacked the rim in heavy traffic. Parker also had a few excellent drive, draw and kick-outs to open teammates when he used his ability to handle the ball to beat his defender and draw help. He also rebounded, started the break and went coast-to-coast. Defensively, Parker was active in the passing lanes and he came up with a few timely steals.
