The Blue Wall: JASPER PARKER, 2025 Michigan Running Back Commit Sits Down with Michael Smeltzer

Attention Michigan fans, we’ve got a good one! I’m excited to introduce to you running back Jasper Parker. Jasper is not only a stud on the field who reminds me of Hassan Haskins, but he is also clearly an impressive young man off the field. In this interview, he shared with me his aspirations of becoming a leader at Michigan who will be remembered for years to come.

Jasper Parker is a standout running back from Archbishop Shaw High School in Marrero, Louisiana. Standing at 6’0″ and weighing 200 pounds, Parker has garnered attention as a recruit. Known for his speed and agility, he has committed to playing for the Michigan Wolverines in 2025. During his high school career, he attracted offers from numerous prestigious programs, including Alabama, Miami, and North Carolina, before ultimately deciding on the Wolverines. 

 

In this interview, Jasper covers a wide range of topics, including his teammate Jacob Washington committing to Michigan, catching up with Donovan Edwards, and how Sherrone Moore’s run-first mentality influenced his decision to come to Michigan.
