The Irish and their courtship of Michigan star quarterback [autotag]Dante Moore[/autotag] has been documented very well. For Moore, his recruiting journey seems to be coming to an end as he will make his announcement in just a few hours on ESPN’s SportsCenter.
Notre Dame was firmly in the mix, even the perceived leader but when 2024 Michigan quarterback [autotag]CJ Carr[/autotag] made his verbal to [autotag]Marcus Freeman[/autotag], [autotag]Tommy Rees[/autotag] and the Irish, it seemed like Moore took that as a sign that the Irish were moving on. According to many insiders, it seems like Moore will choose Oregon at 12:45pm EST when he makes his selection official.

It is a loss for the Irish, but in the grand scheme of recruiting it might not be a big one. Yes, it would have been very nice to have both Moore and Carr in the same room, but the probability that the loser of the starting job transfer would be high, especially in this era.
We will all soon find out where Moore is headed, even if it’s not a bit South and much further West.
