Coach Parks Testimonials

Learn how Coach Parks has the support of college coaches, agents, and athletes.

”
First thing I can say is Tom is a great human being. He's a great person who happens to be a great coach. I have seen the relationships he has with his players and had conversations where I can hear how much he truly cares about them as people. He is what is right about the coaching profession. He is a tremendous teacher of the game on the court and has always flourished in hard jobs. He is a great mentor off the court and it is shown with his relationship with former players."
Danny Sprinkle

Head Coach / University of Washington Huskies

"Coach Parks not only recruited me like no other coach in the country, but he was also always looking out for my best interest. He was a big part of my development both on the court and from a maturity standpoint. Because of his knowledge about recruiting, it made it so much easier for me to navigate a very hectic process."
Abdul Bashir

#1 JUCO player in class of 2025 / Univ. of San Francisco Guard

Tom was great to work with at EvalU. We had in-depth discussions on the athlete's athletic progress, with great depth around we he sat positionally and specific skills and weaknesses. This level of detail is essential in the basketball community when considering what's best for our athletes.
