The younger brother of recently-graduated Georgia Tech OL Trey Braun, Parker played his first three years of high school football at Osceola HS in Kissimmee, FL before playing his senior year at Hallsville HS in Hallsville, TX -- about an hour west of Shreveport. He committed to play on the Flats on August 29th, choosing Georgia Tech over offers from several Power-5 programs, including Arkansas, Auburn, Duke, Florida, Miami, Ohio State, Tennessee, Vanderbilt, and West Virginia. He stands 6'3", and weighs in around 275 pounds.
According to coach Sewak at Georgia Tech's National Signing Day Celebration, the younger Braun is a little more of a "free spirit" than his brother (notice the long hair).
