Evaluation
Parker Meese (25′) | 6-2, 220 | LB | Parish Episcopal
Parker is one of the top linebackers in the country for good reason. His lengthy, athletic frame at 6-foot-2 and his physical nature which translates to his playing style and tackling are just a few things that make Parker special. Parker has a high football IQ, and it is evident that he studies film on his openers by his ability to sniff out plays quickly and come up with big stops for his defense with explosiveness into the backfield and elite speed. Parkers lateral speed and agility give him the ability too cover sideline to sideline, while also showcasing his explosives and fast twitch muscles with his ability too come up with tackles for losses or sacks in the backfield. Does an excellent job shedding, or avoiding blockers, and shows good patiences letting plays develop and come to him. Also excellent against the pass and moves as well in his pack pedal as a defensive back. A run stopping linebacker who is one of the best athletes on the field. Holds 26 division I offers from schools like Colorado, Oregon, Ole Miss, Tennessee, Texas A&M and others.
