Huskers going to try and dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge the Irish and Wildcats.

Sure looking like a Notre Dame commit.  Really thought we had a good shot at him.  Still pretty amazing we are a finalist for kids of this talent level with our record the past 3 years.

Close only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades, and….

Remember when his his recruitment started he was a skinny kid with barely any D1 offers who was a huge Husker fan and wanted to unofficially visit.  Fred showed him respect and kindness and let him make the visit and by all accounts he had a good time.  
 

Kindness and treating people right still carry weight with some people, and I’d argue those are the type of people we want to build our program with.  
 

Now if our record wasn’t complete garbage the last three years we could probably close the deal!

Notre Dame. It's official.

Official-official or Oklahoma State official?

With the transfer portal there is always a chance he could turn us down a 3rd and 4th time.  Might be a record brewing here.  Something to keep your eye on in the future.

Tough to beat Akoy Agau's record

[Huskerpapa]

I know we won't,  but personally, I would intentionally lose his phone number.  We courted the dude to through two recruitments and he chose a different dance partner...so, see ya!

Third time's a charm? 

 

Honestly, I don't know what will happen, but this could re-open Parker AGAIN. As well as Brady Dunlap (who I REALLY like). If they promote in house though, who knows.

We hired Barry Collier; Notre Dame hired Mike Brey.

 

Oh well.

Back on the market...

I would still love to see Parker in Husker red.

[AuroranHusker]

No idea what P5 will do, but it would be awesome to see him in Lincoln. His extended family in Nebraska could go to every home game.

 

 

[colhusker]

Will we get first runner up for a third time?

[royalfan]

Gatorade player of the year final 4 from what I understand.  We could badly use his services.  Dynamic offensive player.  

[FredsSlacks]

i would imagine we are high on his list, but i'd be worried about purdue since they are currently the #1 team in the country and also had offered. and there's always the risk of somebody new offering that he'll be interested in.

Wonder how hard we will try after being crapped on twice already.

 

On another note CU boosters are very worried McDermott will go to ND. Apparently not a fan of current leadership.

If he hasn't denied us more than Peter we aren't doing it right

Rick Johnson is available.

Parker had 51 points tonight to eclipse 2,000 career points, I think only Trae Young has more in the state of Oklahoma. No matter where he ends up, I think he'll make an impact. He's a sharp shooter.

...a perfect fit for Fred's system?

[Huskerpapa]

Ughhhhh.  

 

Phone rings...

Fred answers...Hello

Hey Coach, this is Parker...long silence...

You know, Parker Friedrichsen...you were recruiting me.

Fred - oh yeah, you left us standing at the alter...twice.

Parker - yeah, about that...sorry.  Sooo, is your offer still available???  If so...

Fred - long silence - click.
