One of Mississippi’s top pass rushers is headed to Memphis.
South Panola 2017 defensive tackle O’Bryan Goodson announced his verbal commit to Memphis Wednesday afternoon at the Southern Elite Top 150 combine in Oxford.
“I developed a good relationship with coaches and they would tell me basically every day that I belong,” Goodson said. “When I went there I felt like I had bonded with them for years.”
Goodson chose Memphis over Southern Miss.
“Memphis does similar things to South Panola so I feel I can contribute a lot to the defense,” Goodson said. “There’s no guarantee I will play, but they made it clear I can play as a freshman if I put that work in.
