Is there a link to articles where Parker said these things? Maybe they did and I missed it. It's certainly possible, but if there is a recent article with those type quotes, it would help separate some of the facts from fiction in this thread.
Things are not always as they seem, and each of these recruits are different. Not all are prima donna's with inflated egos. In the interviews I have seen, Parker seems very articulate but also down to earth and grounded.
I think he knows exactly who he is as a player, and that is a guy that will need time to develop, won't be the man from day 1, and certainly won't be a one and done.
Having Mason return for his Senior year, might actually be a positive in the Parker recruitment, not a negative.
Food for thought...
