I'll try to find the article I read about him. Supposedly a major league talent, but the big boys have shied away because of his size. Sounds like he'd be a great pickup. I'll look...

Benny Parker, PG, KC 76ers- There wasn't a tougher person in the building than the product of Kansas City, Kan. He isn't the biggest guy, but he sure plays with a lot of heart and it was everything MoKan could do to contain him off the dribble during a intense grudge match between two Kansas City teams. He hit some tough pull-up jumpers and led his team even though they fell short in a triple overtime classic. He doesn't yet have a Division I offer but that should be changing very soon.

Here are a couple other articles.

Can't teach heart...you either have it or you don't! I like this kid
 
Benny Parker - Although a 2012 prospect, Parker has quickly made a name for himself in the Kansas City area. At 5’8″ the best way to describe Parker is a steady point guard. Parker’s best attribute is his defensive ability; Parker can directly affect the game with his on the ball defense. Parker possesses good handles, but isn’t a flashy point guard. He is a rock solid player running a team.

Rivals now lists him as a three-star point guard and shows offers from us and Buffalo. Looks like he took an OV to Buffalo last week and it looks like he is taking one to Nebraska this weekend. Hopefully we can get our OV scheduled soon -- I'd do it on Homecoming if possible.

I would think that would be the plan. This kid isn't just a good fit but a great fit:
