He would earn letters for three years and his honors include being named Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Week, selection to the All-Missouri Valley Conference and All-South Teams, and being chosen for the East-West Shrine All-Star game and the Coaches All-America Game. He received All-America honors from Associated Press, United Press and The Football News in 1969. This fall, Athlon Publications named Parker to the Memphis All-Time Football Team.
