Well considering that I'm still a student yes, yes I do cruise facebook much, thanks for asking.








You're showing your age there, BigBull....are you sure that Gordon is the old one? [/quote]



For the record, I actually have a facebook page. If I knew who BRFDawg was I could make him one of my friends. Take that, BB, you old fart.[/quote]

Since classes started several days ago, surely someone knows for sure if he's enrolled or can find out. It will be great if he is - sounds like he's a solid player.
Isn't it a wonderful change that we have all these prospects, both scholarship and walk-on, to talk about? It wasn't that long ago that recruiting news was just a recap of players signed and usually they weren't that great. It was a BIG deal to sign someone during the early fall period. Now we have 2 VERBALS. Who would have thunk it? A HUGE season like last year built upon the turnaround of the previous few years has taken our recruiting definitely to a higher level. Let's hope the new staff can continue the success on the court to keep all this interest going.

He's definitely enrolled and a player confirmed to me that one of two new walkons was from Colorado so unless anyone knows another player from Colorado that would walk on I'm guessing he's on the team.

He is now listed on the official roster at Drake's web site.

i first met cory when we were both in 4th or 5th grade when we wound up on the same team. during the next few years we dominated our league. i played point...cory at center. when high school rolled around i started paying less and less attention to basketball. i started to do snowboard comps cause i thought it would be more rewarding then b-ball. i knew we were a small mountain town and there was no way anybody would ever get any type of recruiting hype what so ever. im glad i was wrong. cory has worked harder then anyone i know to get to where hes at. he is truly a great baller but an even greater person. i know he will continue to work at his game and do anything possible to get to an even greater level. his basketball IQ is unbelievible. not to mention a pretty damn good overall IQ aswell. i honetsly think that this kid would be playing at an elite program if he were raised in a big city (not taking anything away from Drake of course). His stroke is almost flawless and his handling skills are of a PG. the main thing he needs to do is get his vertical up and improve on over all quickness. he knows this though...so thats why im confident that those things will not be a problem. i hope he gets a chance to be a real part of this team in years to come. if he is given the oppurtunity to contribute and shine he will. my best wishes go out to cory and all of the drake nation. i hope you all have a great year and get back to the big dance. i know ill be watching.

Royal, thanks for the post. No bigger fans of Mr Parker than all of us.

Also, I found a couple videos of Royal .. he is a wildman out on the mountain!
