Visiting Friday. Arguably the best CB in the Midwest in next year's class. Also favoring Michigan like Webb.

 

[beryirish]

Yeah you know this kid is a stud if he ALREADY has offers from those elite schools

Being from IL, I have more hope with him than I do with Webb. IL is more of our backyard than Michigan's, hopefully Kelly and co. will go after this kid hard.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Visit didn't really move the meter any to our favor. Sounds like it will be OSU or Michigan as of now.

 

[GBdomer]

well his dad is a UM alum. So good luck here.

Welcome to the board, appreciate any info you can provide.

 

[Redbar]

I love his demeanor in game. Really aggressive during the play, very composed and classy afterwards. All business. Obviously has the physical skills and size. I would love to see him in the blue and gold.

 

[NDBoiler]

Any update on his rankings? (im too lazy to search )

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

I'll update them, but he is as close to a Michigan lock at this point as they come.

 

[illmatic630]

Bolingbrook lost

Thoughts on his game


+he is pretty fast. Ran down a running back in the open field to deny a touchdown
+good hips and technique
+nequa tried to test him deep but he recovered well and picked the pass wide out got no separation whatsoever. Westphall had him blanketed. They didnt throw at him once the rest of the game.
-missed an open field tackle that led to a td

Good stuff, illmatic, thanks for bringing it to the board, if Golden is right ( and he usually is) we might need to send Diaco out on this one. We need to compete for this kind of talent in our own backyard.

 

[illmatic630]

He was easily their best defensive player. He went off injured on one play and right away they went deep and scored a td.

Does this dude really have 2 R's together in his name?

Westphal returns to U-M

another dude that seems to be feeling ann arbor pretty big time out of illinois

 

[IrishLax]

Michigan was honestly really impressive with their recruiting last cycle despite going 8-5 and appears to be starting off with a bang yet again in this cycle. Kinda surprising... don't know if it's Mattison or what but their recruiting is incredibly solid.

 

[rtrn2glory]

they've been able to make it back to the top of the big ten in just a few short years....reminds me of my elementary years when it was ann arbor and o$u and everyone else, which right now seems to be the case again.

 

[KyfightingIrish36]

Why aren't we being more aggressive with this kid?

 

[STLDomer]

Can't get em all.

He visited earlier and didnt seem very interested in ND afterwards

 

[Riddickulous]

I'm not sold on Hoke. He hasn't beaten a single elite team so far in his two years at Michigan.

Though admittedly he would have to be a pretty bad coach to fail with the talent he's accumulated.

 

[dublinirish]

don't know if it's Mattison or what

they could all be the next Ray Lewis's!

 

[NDPhilly]

Couple of guys on 247 switched their pick from Michigan to Northwestern yesterday. Idk why he would consider Northwestern and not us.

Hates Catholicism, if you ask me.

Atheist, huh?!?

Well, I think his dad is a Michigan alum, so maybe he just hates ND? Also, his position coach is a Michigan alum (and a Core 6 guy). Just seems to be another Chicago kid who has no one around him who would push for ND.

Are you suggesting that Parrker would rather attend school with a large student body population of suburb Methodist Episcopal pricks rather than a bunch of suburban Catholic pricks. Personally, I cannot tell the difference between the two. Football footnote - I think for Tommy Rees, his choice of a school came down to Northwestern or Notre Dame.
