Rumors later started to emerge that Parks was set to commit to Alabama before being informed that the Crimson Tide may not have room for him in their recruiting class as they wait for the commitment of five-star defensive end LaBryan Ray.

If Parks doesn't head to Alabama, several schools are expected to compete immediately for his commitment. Those schools include Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, and Florida State. As of now, 247Sports has Florida as the favorite after Alabama.
