Former LSU receiver announces transfer to Auburn

Koy Moore announced his commitment to an SEC West rival over the weekend.

[autotag]Koy Moore[/autotag], a former LSU wideout who had been in the transfer portal since last October, announced his destination over the weekend.

Moore will be headed to Auburn, where he’ll have a chance to reunite with former LSU quarterback [autotag]TJ Finley[/autotag].

Moore saw playing time as a freshman in 2020 and provided solid play. He was a top-300 recruit in the class of 2020 and was seen as a player who could be a reliable presence in the slot or on the outside. LSU’s wide receiver room saw an influx of talent in 2021, and playing time was harder to come by, ultimately resulting in Moore entering the portal.

LSU’s receiver room remains deep, but losing Moore to a division rival isn’t insignificant. He’s still young and could turn into a pretty good player.

Moore dropped just two passes in his entire time at LSU, but with [autotag]Jaray Jenkins[/autotag] and [autotag]Jack Bech[/autotag] back, the Tigers will still have two experienced receivers to take on the reliable slot role. Moore finished his LSU career with 248 yards on 27 catches over two years.
