Wisconsin QB commits to Gophers (Gopher Sports)
Quote:
Brewster could end up bringing in a quarterback for the fourth straight recruiting class, because Arrowhead High School (Wis.) junior Tom Parish gave an oral commitment this weekend to play for the University of Minnesota in 2010.
"Tom announced his decision in front of the entire team yesterday after the (Gopher) scrimmage," Parish's father, Steve said. "The team swarmed him chanting, 'Minnesota, Minnesota.' It was pretty special."
Parish, a 6-foot-3, 205-pound signal caller from Arrowhead, Wis., is "an athlete first with raw talent," according to his father. Steve Parish, who played at the University of Wisconsin, also said Gophers offensive coordinator Jedd Fisch thought his son would be a great fit for the team's new pro-style offense.
"Coach Brewster and his entire staff have made our family feel very welcome," Steve Parish said. "Tommy is thrilled to be a Gopher."
The younger Parish picked the Gophers over several interested schools, including Iowa and Wisconsin. The Gophers were the first school to offer him a scholarship.
