Tribune All-Stater Dwayne Goodrich of Richards in Oak Lawn made an oral commitment Monday to sign a national letter of intent with Tennessee, choosing the Volunteers over Notre Dame, Michigan and Northwestern. The 6-foot, 180-pound senior with better than 4.4-second speed in the 40-yard dash was rated the No. 1 defensive back in the country by the SuperPrep college recruiting service out of Laguna Beach, Calif.
Goodrich’s teammate, Jim Jones (6-3, 275), has narrowed his choices to Illinois, Ohio State and Nebraska.
