Class of 2027 linebacker Joakim Gouda announced on Monday that he’s whittled his offer list to just 5. While we don’t quite know where he’s heading, we do know that Gouda will play in the SEC – as all 5 programs in his top 5 are SEC schools.
Gouda will decide between a top 5 of Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Texas and Auburn.
As you can see above, Gouda has a pretty impressive list for a 3-star prospect. Oftentimes, it’s wiser to search the offer list of a prospect rather than relying on the raw ranking given to said prospect by recruiting services such as 247 or On3. With that said, Gouda is considered to be the No. 738 overall prospect in the Class of 2027, as well as the No. 61 LB and No. 82 prospect from the state of Georgia.
Gouda stands at 6-2, 225 pounds and hails from South Paulding High School in Georgia, which is located around 15 miles west of Atlanta. He already has a pair of official visits scheduled to Auburn and Florida in June of 2026.
Apart from the top 5 Gouda set, he also received offers from Tennessee, Ole Miss, Kentucky, North Carolina and Florida State.
