Tennessee football coach Josh Heupel already has secured two big Class of 2025 commitments from Nashville in Brentwood Academy five-star quarterback George MacIntyre and Ensworth four-star defensive lineman Ethan Utley.
Now, can Heupel convince a few Lipscomb Academy football stars to become Volunteers?
Lipscomb rising seniors Chauncey Gooden (OT), CJ Jimcoily (DB), Amir Leonard-Jean Charles (DL) and Kris Thompson (LB) are all considering UT.
They gave The Tennessean an update on their recruitments following Lipscomb’s college showcase last week.
George MacIntyre, Ethan Utley recruiting Chauncey Gooden to Tennessee football
Lipscomb’s Chauncey Gooden (55) can’t quite get to IMG’s Jayden Bradford (4) at Lipscomb’s Reese Smith Football Field in Nashville, Tenn., Friday night, Aug. 18, 2023. IMG went on to win the game 35-10.
MacIntyre and Utley are doing all they can to make sure Gooden becomes a Volunteer.
Gooden is a 6-foot-4, 320-pound four-star lineman ranked as the No. 6 player in Tennessee from the Class of 2025, according to the 247Sports Composite.
“Ethan is like my brother, we basically talk every single day, so he’s definitely trying his best to get me to Rocky Top,” Gooden said. “George is going to be QB1 there so he’s definitely pushing for me to block for him at the next level.”
Gooden listed Tennessee among his 10 finalists in December, to go with Auburn, Clemson, Colorado, Georgia, Michigan, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oregon and South Carolina.
He has considered committing before the start of his senior season but isn’t decided. He will visit Tennessee, Clemson, Purdue, USF, Colorado, Auburn and possibly Florida this summer.
