It became increasingly obvious that Florida State has made a very strong impression shortly after the ceremony to officially name Goldman, the nation's top undecided prospect, to the Under Armour All-America Game in January.

"It was to the point where it was past passion. People were standing the whole game. That's how loud it was. They lost (so) it could have been better but other than that it was great."

Goldman said he is working on an official visit to Alabama, but it seems as if any school other than Florida State will have a challenge to land the nation's top defensive tackle prospect.

Goldman said he'll announce his college decision on national signing day in February. He is also considering Auburn, California, Maryland, Miami and Clemson.
