Congratulations and welcome to Montana State University Aidan!


Must be the son of Nathan Parks. If so, comes from great work ethic.

Yup. Very active hands. Exceptional at shedding blocks. Lightning bolt to the football.

His measurables stand out to me but 6’ 215 if he can get there is solid for a FCS LB. Stanford/NFL dad as well. This staff continues to get commits that far exceed past staffs. You watch a lot of film and I trust your thoughts on a recruit more than anyone else’s. What do you see? Ballhawking tackler?

I stated a few quick thoughts above. But instincts and block shedding ability stand out. Gets in the backfield a lot. He has a quick twitch. Frame is great. As you stated, he'll probably get up to about 215-220. He definitely fits better on the outside...which is why strong safety isn't out of the question because he can run/cover well too. Great pickup.

I'll reserve my thoughts until GA weighs in and tells us whether or not it's ok to be excited about this recruit.

Welcome to MSU Mr. Parks. Reminds me of Konkol, can play LB or Safety, speed to play either spot, shifty, hits hard, and a smart player. Huge pick up by MSU!

I know you don’t care about star ratings, but this class now has four 3-star and one 2-star out of ten total players.

3-star: Parks, Robison, Lenzy, and Reimer.
2-star: Mellott.
