Florida picked up a commitment Friday from a highly recruited defensive tackle out of Oakdale (CT.) St. Thomas More High.
Lamar Goods, a 6-foot-4, 290-pound defensive lineman, verbally committed to UF’s 2020 class just two days after backing off a pledge to Kentucky.
Gators coach Dan Mullen later confirmed Goods’ commitment via his Twitter account.
Goods took an official visit to Florida on June 14, opting to de-commit from the Wildcats just several days later. Ranked the No. 31 defensive tackle in the 2020 class by 247Sports, Goods, a native of Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada, is the fourth defensive lineman to commit to Florida’s 2020 class.
With Goods’ commitment, which is non-binding until he signs a letter of intent, the Gators have 14 commitments in the current recruiting cycle.
A very wise decision! Great defensive coordinator to play for, top-notch academic environment on a beautiful campus.
Well said, but then again, you never know until he signs on the dotted line.
Even a signature will not a guarantee he will stick. He also needs a great roommate and cuts the umbilical cord to CT. Didn’t some vocal fans tell Mullen to not go out of state, ever, again? You now Doc, now that I’ve discovered sarcasm, it’s fun.

Very pleased that Lamar Goods will be joining the Gator football team. He obviously has good size to be a DT and from what I read, he is quick for his size. After he goes through Coach Nick Savage’s strength and conditioning program, Lamar should be able to contribute immediately, which is great! GO GATORS!!!
Welcome aboard big man!!! Glad to have you join the good guys.
My cousin lives in CT. He says this guy is a stud. Hope he stays with Fla. long enough to sign. As with Steele, you never know what an out-of-state player will do.
Hope we keep the 3 DTs that are committed.
Just remember Dave, green side up. You know, just in case you cut class at the clown college on the day they were teaching how to lay sod.
Now THAT was funny.
