Parks would be a fun get. I've never viewed him as a "must get" like some do, but he's definitely a good NG prospect and an excellent compliment to Folorunsho. I've also made the argument that landing a pile of kids from Chicagoland each year isn't all that important to me anymore, but when there are legit guys, I like seeing ND lock them down. Parks and Folorunsho in 2027. Prescott and McGee in 2028 will be similarly important.

Parks being in McGee’s ear can’t hurt. But I am aligned with you that we shouldn’t take Chicago kids just to take Chicago kids

Just go 3/4 on that foursome and I'm satisfied.

Prescott too, seems like a great 2028 class in Chicagoland

I really want to know more about Prescott the kid. Not that I've heard anything negative at all, but Bollingbrook kids seem to be "hit-or-miss" as ND fits. I'd be curious to see where Prescott is on that spectrum.

I think IB reported he is a ND fit.

I assume they had a very honest conversation with Fakatou (or his agent) about where they stand and decided it was worth focusing on the higher probability option in Parks and give him your attention as the top DT recruit.

Four-star DL Brayden Parks discusses Notre Dame official visit and what's next in his recruitment

Four-star DL Brayden Parks discussed his Notre Dame official visit and what's next in his recruitment in an interview with Blue & Gold.

This is a pretty funny exchange from Kelly that I appreciate. Too often our beat turtles over being this direct or persistent

Q. How adamant are you about taking that Oregon visit?

PARKS: “I feel the same way about it as I felt about this visit. Basically, the same type of mentality going into it. Not, I’ve seen everything, just being out there, seeing the vibe of the players, the culture — stuff like that — the staff, recruits. It’s the same mindset basically.”
Q. Have you considered that maybe it’s not worth it to go on that visit or to maybe cancel it? Has that become part of the conversation at all?

PARKS: “I haven’t spoken to my parents in a minute. We’re probably going to talk about it. If we do, if we don’t, who knows?”

Q. Do you still feel like you need to see Oregon with the way things went with Notre Dame this weekend?

PARKS: “Right now, I’m still planning to take the visit to Oregon.”
