247 shows still committed to MSU, but unsigned

Florida has not been linked to Mississippi State four-star defensive end commit Charles Moore much, but the 6-foot-4, 270 pound prospect did not sign, took an official visit to Auburn earlier this month and plans to take trips to LSU and Tennessee in January. That is a quality prospect left on the board that UF could pursue down the stretch

Cool that he is visiting. Still a chance to get him.

Anybody else find it odd that the former Mississippi State head coach hasnt been pursuing a big name Mississippi kid?

Or is it that the kid can’t stand goober HCs who dress up recruits parents and makes Air Jordan’s look like shoes for Payless.

Moore was one of the earliest pledges in Mississippi State’s class, committing the summer prior to his junior season and sticking with that commitment through the Bulldogs' coaching change that occurred a few months later. However, he is also among the nine Mississippi State commitments who did not sign in the early period. Auburn is the biggest threat to Mississippi State for Moore, and he official visited the Tigers Dec. 7.

Can we just get this dude and get our DE issue settled.

We don’t need another injury-prone player we’ve had enough to fill a bus. He sure does fit the size requirements, though. If he’s healthy we gotta throw everything at him.

I would be shocked, however, to see somebody from Louisville go anywhere but Mississippi State.

His signing accomplished that?

 

[T Dog]

His signing accomplished that?

He did not sign with the Bulldogs. Why I was hoping we had a chance. Unless his injury was too severe of course.

“One guy who Tennessee should probably give another look at DE Charles Moore. He’s been dominant as a 3-technique.”

Tennessee did pass but he was supposedly really good at Mississippi/Alabama All-Star week and has continued that play here in Orlando.

Mississippi State defensive end commit Charles Moore flashed some real explosiveness as a 3-technique tackle during 1-on-1s. Wright beat him on one rep, but Moore pretty much whipped the rest of the interior OL. Tennessee had backed off Moore after an up-and-down senior season, but he’s looked solid both in Orlando and at the Mississippi/Alabama All-Star Game the last few weeks. He said his knee, which caused him to miss time his junior season, feels much better and his explosiveness is returning. Florida and Auburn are both recruiting him hard, but Moore said Tennessee has maintained steady dialogue recently and he plans to OV with the Vols in January (probably around the 19th).

NEEEEEEEEED

 

[EdEcEko77]

The 4-star lineman from Louisville (Miss.) opted not to sign in December, and Florida has suddenly entered the picture, with Auburn and LSU still in hot pursuit. Tennessee, which seriously recruited Moore over the summer, has reopened its line of communication, too.

With so many options, Moore told VolQuest his commitment with the Bulldogs is currently on shaky ground.

“Right now, it ain’t looking too good for them right now,” the Under Armour All-American end said.

“My mom is starting to win my dad over. They think it might be good for me to get out and grow up a little bit because they’re not going to be able to baby sit me my whole life. If I have problems, versus being 15 minutes away in Starkville, you have to stay there and handle your business on your own. Be a man and grow up.”

Tennessee was a flip favorite this summer, as Moore made his way to campus and nearly ended his long-standing commitment to the Bulldogs. That didn’t happen, though, and the Vols ultimately began pursuing other d-lineman.

But following a strong showing at the Mississippi/Alabama All-Star Game, Moore said he began to hear from the Vols again. The 6-foot-3, 275-pound lineman has only further helped his stock down in Orlando this week, too, flashing a fierce spin move and quick power for an interior lineman. Moore missed time his junior season with a serious knee injury and he was slowed a bit his senior year still battling back to full strength. He’s still not 100 percent, but he’s getting there.

“I’m not all the way back yet, but I can feel myself getting that explosiveness back,” he said.

“That’s why I’m ready to get on campus and get in the weight room, strength and conditioning program so I can get all the way back to 100 percent.”

Moore has already taken an official visit to Auburn and he’s set to see Florida on Jan. 11. He said Tennessee “sits high in the mix” and “will most definitely” get a visit in January.

“I have good relationships with all their coaches there. I like the atmosphere there,” Moore said.

“I have a lot of family in Tennessee. My mom, she wants me to get out of Mississippi so that’s a big help for Tennessee, me getting out of Mississippi and having family there.”

While Auburn is the current favorite to poach Moore, the Mississippi native said he wants to give Tennessee another look because he believes Tracy Rocker and Jeremy Pruitt will develop him into an NFL prospect.

“Coach Rocker he’s a good coach. He’s not a pushover,” Moore said.

"It’s kind of like a tough love situation. He’s going to be hard on you and that’s what I’m looking for because I’m trying to get developed. The (Vols) are on the low-in on defensive lineman. It’s a good chance for me to come in and play. Not necessarily start early, but a good opportunity to play and compete.”

Oooooh sounds good. Sounds very good.

Sounds like if we press we’ll have a good shot of landing him.

 

[The Dog]

Oh hell yeah. Go get him Pruitt and Rocker. My kinda realistic finish for this cycle: Moore, Harris, Cox, Russell and Wright. Maybe not realistic but I really want George Pickens. Absolutely, love 5 star, 6'4 WRs that are fast, physical and have mad ball skills. Of course, so does every coach and team in the country

Well, yea. Sounds real good.

Buuuut... does @bignewt approve of this late flip attempt????

Shooters use good bait or something like that

Autocorrect tense issue. He’d be a good addition. I don’t know if it’s the bow on a great plan.

 

[bignewt]

Well, yea. Sounds real good.

Buuuut... does @bignewt approve of this late flip attempt????

we have had ongoing recruiting discussions with him and a true area of need. We have known about this kid all year. So yes i approve.

Alright, that answered my “why not MSU” question. And since he’s not an idiot, he won’t be going to Florida even with Jethro Bodeen recruiting him. Hopefully.

This is a guy I know we turn into an NFL stud.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

Most likely too late

 

[Blake25p]

Most likely too late

Respectfully disagree. Family wants him to leave the state. Has family in Tennessee we offer early playing time and as it stands right now we get the last visit. All bolds well for the good guys.
