Parkey was the nation's first kick to pick up a Division I offer in the 2010 class. He has been ahead of his time for the last three-to-four years. He is a superior ball-striker and the ball comes off his foot clean more consistently than most current college kickers. His field goal height and rythm is similar to that of an upperclassman in college. College coaches will enjoy his confident, yet humble attitude. He also has tremendous leg strength. His kickoffs are consistently over four seconds and 70 yards. Parkey has been charted kicking off over 80 yards. He has been kicking off the ground for two years and should adjust very well to the college game. His ability to focus helped him win the most outstanding kicker award at Kohl's National Scholarship camp. He is the most college-ready prospect in the nation. His mental toughness and ability to focus will help him as he performs for an upper-tier BCS program.
