Savon Goodman is heading to Villanova, according to a newspaper report.

The 6-foot-6 forward, described as the "[best] physical specimen in the class" by Scout.com will pick the Wildcats, a source told the Philadelphia Inquirer. According to the report, Goodman will make his decision official Tuesday.

The Philadelphia native also considered Texas ,Pitt and Penn State, according to Rivals.com.

But the source said the Philadelphia native preferred to stay near home.

"He loved everything about Nova, everything about the program from the academics on down," the source told the Inquirer. "The main piece is he is a homebody. He wants to his family to see him play."

A high school junior, Goodman can only verbally commit to the Wildcats. He can sign a letter of intent next November.
