'24 TN DB Marcus Goree (Tennessee)

"I think Goree is a fantastic athlete and might have a chance to be one of the top two or three players in that class," 247Sports.com recruiting analyst Ryan Callahan said. "He's that lengthy, fast defensive back that this state hasn't produced many of the past few years."

...According to Coach Floyd, Tennessee coaches have informed him that the 6-foot-1, 175-pound Goree, who had 11 tackles for loss, 11 pass breakups and returned one of his interceptions for a touchdown, is the top overall defensive back on their recruiting board. "Marcus has that quick-twitch ability to turn his hips and get to a spot faster than anyone else on the field," Floyd said. "He also has a natural instinct for where he needs to be to make a play and, unlike a lot of athletes, he isn't interested in playing receiver. He's very physical and wants to play defense."

While competing at a camp Tennessee last summer, Goree was timed at 4.45 seconds in the 40-yard dash. Vols head coach Josh Heupel approached Goree and Floyd, offering the Bradley star on the spot.

"It's been kind of surreal, honestly, because I grew up watching all these teams on TV and now their coaches are coming to my school to see me," said Goree..."My freshman year was only my third year to even play football and I became a starter that season...I really started to believe I could play against anybody after I went up against some high-level talent last year at a camp in Detroit. Since then I've just been working to keep getting better and looking at which schools I like. I know I want to stay pretty close to home and go somewhere that I'll have a chance to earn early playing time."

He's saying don't take what's in that article as gospel. Beasley is in the boat, then there's guys like Goree, Carter, and a few others(not all in-state) that they would accept a commitment from right now.
