The initial BCS standings come out next week, so there's a little time for teams to make up some ground that they might have lost. Mark Schlabach breaks down a handful of title contenders, including Alabama, Oregon, Florida, LSU and USC.
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Tahaan Goodman (Rancho Cucamonga, Calif./Rancho Cucamonga) isn't rushing his recruitment.
The four-star safety is making sure that it doesn't become overwhelming. Instead, he's learning to like it.
"It is fun, I am enjoying it," he said Saturday at Champion Gridiron Kings in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. "I am taking it in a little by little.

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- ESPN 150 safety Priest Willis (Tempe, Ariz./Marcos de Niza) has a top fifteen of Arizona, Arizona State, California, Florida, Florida State, LSU, Michigan, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, UCLA, USC, Utah, Virginia and Washington.
On Friday while at Champion Gridiron Kings at Disney's ESPN Wide World of Sports, Willis spoke about a couple programs still in the mix for his commitment.
“Oregon is a great program,” Willis said, “and LSU is a great school that has put a lot of defensive backs in the league. The coaching staff is all very cool.”
Willis said he plans to take an official to Notre Dame on Sept. 21 for the game against Michigan, to Nebraska on Oct. 26 for the game against Michigan and to LSU on Nov. 2 for the Alabama game. He has no timeline for his decision right now.
