After de-committing from Florida and opening his recruitment back up in the middle of June, Jalen Goss has added some offers and he is starting to look at official visits. Auburn, Cincinnati and Tennessee are the schools the 6-foot-6, 270 pound offensive tackle out of Valdosta (Ga.) Lowndes has added offers from. The Tigers offered after his camp performance in late July, the the Bearcats and Vols offered in August.
Those two SEC schools look to be in a good spot for the three star. He is planning to take official visits to each. "I am definitely going to take official visits to Auburn and Tennessee," said Goss. "Those are the only ones I know for sure right now. I am also looking at Michigan and UCF, but I am still thinking about it. "I have been talking to coaches from Auburn and Tennessee at least two to three times a week lately and I like both schools a lot."
Goss has yet to visit Knoxville (Tenn.), so when he gets up there, it will be important for him to see it all. "I have family up in Tennessee and they are not too far from Knoxville, so it would be cool to be up there near them," said Goss. "I know Tennessee has a really good program and I like how they play. They have had some good players and I have a lot of interest in them.
"I have been talking with coach [Butch] Jones, coach [Tommy] Thigpen (linebackers) and coach [Walt] Wells (offensive line) a lot. They like my ability and two coaches from Tennessee are coming down this weekend to see me and my teammate Michael Barrett play. "They have talked to me a lot about the program and I really want to get up there."
"I just rushed things a little when I committed before," said Goss. "I needed to take more time and now I am getting ready to make a final decision. "I am taking these visits to find the school not only I like, but that my parents like too. They are important in this, so I will be talking with them about everything. "We want the good fit for me. That is what we are looking for."
