A day after receiving his second college offer, Carthage's Terian "Tee" Goree received two more.

Carthage head coach Scott Surratt told ETSN.fm via text that the 2014 receiver snagged offers from Louisiana Tech and Memphis on Friday.

The Bulldogs and Tigers follow Louisiana-Lafayette, which offered Goree on Thursday, and Louisiana-Monroe, which extended him an offer three weeks ago. Fellow 2014 receiver O'Keeron Rutherford also has a ULM offer.

Goree, who measured 6-3 3/4 and 168 pounds in shoes at the May 19 ETSN.fm Football Recruiting Combine at APEC training facility, had a stellar junior season. Goree’s 2012 totals in receptions (66), receiving yards (1,261), and touchdown catches (17) rank fourth, second, and second, respectively, in single-season school history.

The 6-foot-5 Rutherford is Carthage's red-zone specialist and caught eight touchdown passes in 2012.

Goree and Rutherford will likely follow in the Division I FBS footsteps of recent Carthage receivers Jalen Claiborne and Edward Pope. Claiborne, the school's record-holder in every single-season and career category, now starts at Wyoming entering his junior season. Pope will play at receiver at Texas A&M as a redshirt freshman this season. His senior campaign in 2011 yielded one of the best single-season receiver performances in Carthage history: 76 catches (second), 1,233 yards (third), and 16 touchdowns (third).
