Marquael Parks will finish his career at Massillon.
You heard it here first.
Also, he will not have to sit out any games, his home is in Massillon.

I like the addition. The kid saw that we won the Harbin Points State title and wanted to be part of our greatness. Cue BRF getting upset with me because we once again have taken their best player.
On a related noted, our annual combine will be on March 31. https://www.theopening.com/regionals Many kids are expected to try out for our Harbin Points championship team. We will continue to dominate the combine era.
Has this happened? Or are you predicting this will happen?

No it hasn't and I can't see why it ever would. The kid is fun to watch, but he puts up numbers against Tuslaw and Fairless. He's not going to do that to St V's and Mckinley. Going to Massillon would only hurt his recruiting at this point.
My advise to him would be stay put. You're in a weak league in a weak region in a weak division. You'll look good there.

Have heard from two different people that its going to happen. I have no reason to doubt them. His family still lives in Massillon.

Wow, what a losers mentality. I hope you don't have any kids. "No son, don't step up and challenge yourself against bigger better competition, stay in this powder puff league and rack up the numbers."
Loser mentality.
The date....July 19th, 1969....
Kiser Permanentes grandfather steps to the podium.
"After very little debate, we have decided not to sent Mr. Armstrong and Mr. Aldrin on a mission that could alter the course of history"...."it was a very easy decision, we'll just stay here on earth where everything is easy....why challenge ourselves, let the Soviets or somebody else do it."

nope.. it's just stating a fact that he's not as good as his numbers show and he'll be exposed. He's better off putting up the numbers where he's at because he won't against better competition and it'll only hurt his recruiting.
Do you understand the definition of the word "fact?" The kid is extremely fast with excellent moves. He can cut on a dime and accelerate back to full speed at the drop of a hat. We already have 3 excellent running backs, I envision him playing in the slot where the skill set that I just described will fit him perfectly....a la Adrick Ford this past season.

So just stand pat huh? I can see your school won't be scheduling my Tigers.

You seem to be a talent expert. Could you please tell me what qualities this kid lacks that would be exposed with a transfer to Massillon?

Just as I thought, spouting off at the mouth with the inability to back it up....
Could someone please swing by kizers house and make sure he's ok? He hasn't posted for a while and I'm concerned for his well being. I know he wouldn't avoid me simply because I asked a question he has no answer to.

Well he's 150 lbs (doubtful) and has been for 2 years so he's probably done growing. And there's nothing wrong with being small if you're a jockey. But being a small RB isn't a great attribute. You can mask that in smaller divisions where the size isn't there.. Also he's a stop and start runner without exceptional speed. Again, you can mask that in smaller divisions where you're still faster than everybody. Won't work against most teams Massillon plays. Chances are he never makes it out of the backfield in d1-2 schedule. He goes for TD's right now.
You just used these words...."doubtful", "probably" and "chances are." And it took you several days to think of this response? Son, try harder.
First of all, you think nobody has ever grown between their sophomore and senior years? You're not that blind are you?
Secondly, as I said earlier, he won't stay at RB if he plays at Massillon, he'll be playing in the slot.
And finally, if you're criticizing his speed, you've most likely never actually seen him play.
Swing and a miss.

Yeah but he's a hold back so he should be going to his senior year already. At his age and hasn't grown in a few years.. my bet is he's done. And he's not slow.. but he doesn't have elite speed. Hes quick. Shifty. But he's not even as fast as Orrvilles QB.
He'd be better in the slot for sure. But I still have question how well he'd hold up with his frame. And does he want to leave a RB job for a slot job where his touches go down immensely? Either way it hurts his recruiting.
So if recruiting is your main focus,
Receivers at Massillon
2017 Austin Kustcher WR (pwo) Ohio State
2018 Tre'von Morgan WR (Michigan State)
2018 Aldrin Ford WR (Youngstown State)
2020 Jayden Ballard WR offers from many schools including Ohio State and Penn State.
So I don't think it hurts his recruiting at all. Maybe he goes to a bigger better school that plays tougher competition and proves all the doubters wrong.
Ballard just added an offer from Oregon yesterday.
