Lucas (Texas) Lovejoy four-star wide receiver and LSU commit Kyle Parker had a night to remember Friday.

Parker had 23 catches for 341 yards and three touchdowns. According to data by Dave Campbell’s Texas Football, that is the third-most catches and 11th-most receiving yards ever in a Texas high school football game.

However, Argyle defeated Lucas (Texas) Lovejoy by a score of 56-49.

Parker is the No. 374 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $16.3k. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.

Kyle Parker Scouting Summary

Technical receiver with advanced route-running skills who projects in the slot at the next level. Has measured around 5-foot-10.5, 180 pounds heading into his senior season. Plays in a spread, vertical passing offense at the high school level, but shows lateral agility and route polish to easily project to a complex route tree in college. Wins with quickness and agility in the route and after catch phases. Capable of breaking off defensive backs with his change of direction. Picks up yards with the ball in his hands, both after the catch and as a punt returner. Quicker than fast, but can turn in some long gains with the ability to make defenders miss in space. Has strong hands at the catch point and can win in traffic. Not physically imposing in terms of his stature or frame. Younger for the class, turning 17-years old in June prior to his senior season.
