MSU Post Draft Fallout

[AlSwearengen]

What I am thinking when Parker stated he turned down second round money. His family wants him to attend college from what I have read. I believe him more so than what 34 has said. My point is so what? Let it ride and enjoy the moment instead of being "I told you guys so", Just saying.

I don't know this specific Parker family, but I know some of their cousins/aunts. I remember when the dad was in hs and got hurt and paralyzed playing football. He ended up going to law school and married his physical therapist. There are dentists, nurses, etc throughout the family. Education is obviously valued with the whole family.

edit to add: someone may come along and correct me on the wife being a physical therapist and that being how they met, but I'm pretty sure that is correct. It has been 20 years since I was in contact with the family members that I knew.

regardless, they are well regarded and we will be glad we have them.
