William Parker
(OL) Nashville, TN (Pearl-Cohn HS)
6’5, 305
Commit: 9/8/20
3-star on 247 Composite/Rivals, 4-star on ESPN
Josh Ward’s Analysis: Griffin-Parker has exactly what Tennessee looks for in a lineman: size. He has played on both sides of the football in high school and should develop into a quality offensive lineman for the Vols.
Eric Cain’s Analysis: The in-state prospect was very important to the Vols at the time of his commit and is viewed as a future option at the tackle position. Griffin-Parker displays good athleticism and bend on the edge and has dropped 20 pounds during the COVID era. With great size (6-5, 310), the Nashville native has a chance to transform his body when arriving to campus and be plugged in as immediate depth on the offensive line.
