• When I was at the Elite 11, there was a competition at the end of the first night that pitted the participating high school prospects against college quarterbacks like C.J. Stroud and Caleb Williams. The winner of that competition was a stud with a live arm who made throw after throw. After the competition, I turned to my colleague Antonio Morales and asked, “What team does he play for?” I thought he was a college quarterback. He looked more like Stroud and Williams than he did the five-star prospects he was competing against. Antonio told me it was Chris Parson.
• Parson is a four-star prospect of Brentwood (Tenn.) Ravenwood, the No. 328 overall player and the No. 16 QB in the 2023 class. His rating is lower because he has moved around a lot in high school and he’s maybe 6-foot. But he can play. He decommitted from Florida State on Tuesday evening, which was a big blow for the Seminoles. Florida State is still in a battle for four-star quarterback Brock Glenn of Memphis (Tenn.) Lausanne Collegiate School, so it may turn out OK. But I’m telling you right now: Parson is a stud and whoever lands him (Mississippi State has some momentum) is going to be very happy.
