Just spoke with ESPN 100 #1 player Jabari Parker. List cut to five. No order Stanford, BYU, Duke, Mich St, Florida
— Reggie Rankin (@ReggieRankin) October 5, 2012
Parker's original list included 11 schools -- Kentucky, Stanford, Michigan State, Kansas, Florida, Duke, Georgetown, North Carolina, BYU, DePaul and Connecticut. He had in-home visits with all of those schools except for Georgetown and Kentucky.
His head coach at Simeon, Robert Smith, recently told ESPN Chicago that Parker is looking for a school that can prepare him for how to deal with the money and fame he may accrue during his very promising basketball career.
