Jabari Parker has reduced his list of college choices to BYU, Duke, Florida, Michigan State and Stanford.

Parker in July had revealed a list of 10 schools he was considering, which included DePaul, Georgetown, Kansas, Kentucky and North Carolina.

Parker is the top recruit of the 2013 class.

"He thought about it and looked at the programs. That's the five he had," Simeon coach Robert Smith said Friday. "It took him a long time to find. Everyone was really good, but he had to make a decision. He really respected everyone recruiting him and wanted to thank them for their time. He knew he couldn't make everyone happy.

"He's just ready to go out and visit the campuses and get a real feel for the players and the campuses. Him, his family and myself will sit down and see what he comes up with. This is Jabari's decision. We're just making sure he's being guided. I tell him to follow his heart."

There was never that realistic of a chance he went to UK. Only a formality.

Like TYO said it's MSU or Duke unless some dark horse sneaks in.

Kept BYU and dropped Kentucky. Man I like this kid already.

I really hope he doesn't go to Florida. Stanford would be an odd choice kinda.

MSU is like 60/40 favorite right now. We also have a lot of depth at his position so that could push him to East Lansing

I'd love to get him though. Hate looking a year ahead but we'd be so stacked.

Jabari Parker could be affected by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' recent decision to lower the age minimum for men to serve a mission, his father said Monday.

The new minimum age requirement for church members' missions is 18 if they are a high school graduate, a change that would allow Parker to become a full-time missionary right after high school.

"When he's 18 and if he did want to go on a mission, he can now," Parker's father, Sonny Parker, said Monday. "He has to decide whether or not (he wants to). He hasn't decided one way or another. We've talked about it.

"If he's going at 18, he would go to a mission and then possibly go to college or to the NBA. I know his situation is different than a lot of people. We'll just see."

Jabari’s brother, Christian, served a mission after playing basketball at BYU-Hawaii.

"When he came from his mission, we talked a lot about it," Jabari Parker told Sports Illustrated in May. "I want to go (on a mission). But I have doubts. The NBA is the biggest dream of basketball players, and I'm no different."

Wasting his time on made up shit instead of going to college seems foolish

That's exactly my point. So what is your basis to say that it is made up.
