2024 WR Parker Livingstone impressing as junior year begins

2024 Lucas (Tex.) Lovejoy wide receiver Parker Livingstone continues to make a name for himself in a talented receiver room for the Leopards. Last week, he notched seven receptions for 106 yards and two scores in a 52-27 win over College Station (Tex.).

The 6-3, 185-pound prospect saw a big improvement in his speed entering his junior year. Track helped him in that regard in a big way.

“Probably my speed, I ran track this spring. I ran 200, 4×100 and 4×400,” Parker Livingstone told On3. “I think my speed and acceleration got better in my releases and my routes helping me get open. I think I bring the deep ball and the 50/50. Just going deep, getting down the field on long 3rd downs and what not.”

With 2023 SMU wide receiver commit Jaxson Lavender, 2023 LSU wide receiver commit Kyle Parker and 2025 wideout Daylan McCutcheon, the quartet forms a dynamic unit.

“It’s great, it’s amazing,” Livingstone said. “I think we have the best receiving corps in the state, even the country. It’s going to be a fun year to be with all of them. It’s going to be something I’ll remember forever.”

Parker Livingstone set for busy fall with visits

On Thursday, Livingstone will be able to be contacted by colleges. Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee and Baylor will host him this fall, he reported. The in-state Bears lead the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine thanks in part to wideouts coach Dallas Baker, a former Florida standout.

“I love coach Baker, the receiver coach there. He’s amazing,” Livingstone said. “He’s so personal and actually knows how to talk to you and it’s not all about football to him.”

The Longhorns are also in the mix with Steve Sarkisian and Brennan Marion leading the way.

“It’s a great culture. I love the coaching staff there. It’s something that I could possibly see myself at in the future. I love coach Marion and coach Sark. They’re great people to be around.”

According to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies, Parker Livingstone ranks as the No. 345 overall prospect in the nation and No. 57 wide receiver in the country.
