One of the Florida Gators biggest recruiting targets narrowed his options on Thursday when Sebastian River (Fla.) Sebastian five-star defensive end Jarez Parks named his top eight schools.

What’s Next: This Rivals100 member is coming off a flurry of visits, seeing schools such as Georgia, Clemson, Auburn, Alabama, and Florida State. The Gators expected Parks at their Friday Night Lights camp last week, but he was not able to make it. Whether or not he will visit Florida before the start of his school year is still unknown. However, it would be a safe bet to say that we will see him make it to Gainesville this fall for a football game.

Blake’s Take: “The three schools going down the left panel of his tweet could very well be in order with Alabama, Florida, and Florida State slugging it out. Alabama has impressed Parks over numerous visits to campus and have been a team in high contention for some time. The Gators were his childhood favorite and have pitched early playing time and have been able to get him on campus quite a few times. Florida State is also a school that has hosted Parks on campus a few times. Don’t expect Parks’ recruiting process to really heat up until late in the fall or closer to National Signing Day. In the end I could very well see this turning into an Alabama/Florida battle as they have been the most consistent players for his services for quite some time now.”
