Was at the Ike/AC game ... Parnell is impressive but needs to play harder when he thinks ppl aren't watching him or when the play isn't designed (which isn't often) for him. Athleticism like Ike's former player, now at Pratt CC, Trevon Evans (40+ inch vert! lateral quickness, etc.) Slasher/leaper who has a decent shot but the shot also needs improvement (not his form but his level of comfort on step out shots.) also needs to work on finishing at the bucket. He constantly made above average moves only for him to not finish the play. Got tired in the 2nd half & didn't return to the game after a TO called with around 3:30 to play in the 4th. Was guarded & frustrated by a smaller defender all nite (slammed ball down after 2 separate travel calls) but still finished with 20+ pts ... Which is impressive.
IMO ... He's a low to mid major talent RIGHT NOW, should get better over the next yr & I'm sure he will wind up at a mid-major to potential high major program. (Barring any grade/character issues) needs to improve effort and motor if he wants to reach his potential.Last edited by small tyme baller; December 23, 2014, 09:13 PM.Up your nose with a rubber hose - Barbarino

I saw him play tonight against Heights at the event at Koch Arena. As small tyme baller said a couple weeks ago, he needs a bit of maturity as he tends to sulk when things don't go well. He certainly has physical tools to play at the next level. He just needs to rev up his motor and show more of 3G's three V's.78-65
