Another name to know….I beat Old Fart to it!!!

SMH    Such excitement over beating a nearly 73-year old with moderately high blood pressure, slight arterial blockage, 2 partially bulging discs and arthritic knees and back.   :farting_smiley:

Quick note that while Parks is visiting he does not have an IU offer.

Typical of these youngsters today.  Start a job and leave it half finished.   lol

this is the newest game on BtownBanners, "see who can beat Old Fart starting a new recruit thread".
It doesn't happen very often. He does a great job keeping us informed.

Paying a visit on the first day of the recruiting period suggests Parks is a priority target

Paul Biancardi cited Parks as one of his top 10 after the first day of the Wooten camp.

 

This from Brandon Jenkins of 247:  

One 2023 prospect who has seen his recruitment pick up recently is Austin Parks and we saw why this afternoon. A 6-foot-9 bulky big man who is explosive around the rim, Parks knows who he is and thrives in his role. He asserted himself as the ultimate bruiser who took advantage of mismatches and paid rent on the glass.

Big Ten members are all in hot pursuit as Illinois, Indiana, Michigan State, and Ohio State have all been extremely active in his recruitment as of late. He made a great first impression that was definitely worth consideration for a spot in the next updated 2023 player rankings.

Indiana: "Sometime within the next month, I will take another visit. Dane Fife and Mike Woodson have been on me pretty good. They come to my practices to watch me workout. I love the tradition they have. They have been off the past few years but I feel Coach Woodson can bring the program back on top."

He plays about 35 minutes from me. I may try to go catch a game of his this year. Not a lot of basketball talent in that area but a ton of football talent (corn fed farmer kids).
