Koy Moore stands a solid chance at becoming the next great wide receiver at LSU, with names like Justin Jefferson and Ja’Marr Chase instantly coming to mind when we think of players who have recently found success at the position.
Coming out of high school, Moore was listed as a four-star wide receiver at Archbishop Rummel High School in Metairie, Louisiana.
He was ranked as the No. 4 prospect in the entire state after he finished with 1,254 receiving yards and averaging 13.5 yards per catch. As a senior, Moore had a career-high 594 receiving yards.
Throughout his high school career, Moore totaled 93 catches and averaged 46.4 receiving yards per game.

To follow in the footsteps of the type of established receivers the Tigers have boasted will be no easy task. But given the prolific offense the Tigers will likely run for years to come, Moore has a shot to be elite just like his fellow receivers.
In 2020, it’s hard to see Moore get a ton of playing time. Marshall and Chase return, as does Racey McMath. But, Tigers fans could see him in a limited role this year.
Though fall camp just began at LSU, Ed Orgeron listed Moore and fellow freshman Kayshon Boutte as two players who have stood out so far.
The Tigers aren’t using pads or running routes currently, but Moore has already made a great first impression. Once routes are being established and pads are on, he could give the coaches a second thought on his playing time this season.
His freshman season could be light work, but the seasons to follow could give Moore an opportunity to become another talented receiver for the Tigers moving forward.
