Tennessee point guard signee Kwe Parker

Kwe Parker stunned the Rutgers basketball program with his decommitment last night. 247Sports is hearing that a couple SEC schools are now in the mix.

One of the more athletic guards in the 2016 class at 6-2, 172-pounds and out of High Point (N.C.) Wesleyan Christian High School, Parker chose Rutgers over Wake Forest in the summer. Parker could end up flipping to the Wake Forest, but the Demon Deacons are in a tight scholarship situation and are still vigorously pursuing top target Harry Giles. On the other hand, Parker was former high school teammates with Giles.

Two other likely contenders for Parker are out of the SEC. Florida and Tennessee are expected to make strong runs in his recruitment according to sources close to his recruitment.

Parker is ranked No. 61 in the Top247 and No. 126 in the 247Sports Composite.
