Clemson wide receiver signee T.J. Moore is one of ESPN’s true freshmen to know in 2024

Clemson’s 2024 recruiting class is stacked with talent at wide receiver.

Dabo Swinney and the Tigers desperately needed to address the wide receiver position in their 2024 recruiting class, and they did a great job doing so. 

Quality over quantity with this class of wide receivers, as five-star Bryant Wesco and four-star T.J. Moore will look to make an immediate impact for the team. Wesco is on campus and with the program, while Moore will join the Tigers in the summer. There is a lot of hype surrounding these two wide receivers, and the tape I’ve watched leads me to believe that they will live up to it. 

ESPN recently named 12 true freshmen to know in 2024 ($$$), with Moore being named as one of those freshmen. 

Clemson’s leading receiver this season was Tyler Brown, who was a freshman, and the leader in touchdown receptions was tight end Jake Briningstool. There wasn’t much production behind them, though, and the team ranked 61st in receiving yards per game among all FBS teams with just 228.4 yards, and No. 70 in receiving touchdowns. Moore is a welcome addition in this class, as is receiver Bryant Wesco, who could be included on this list as well. Moore had 1,272 receiving yards and 17 receiving touchdowns as a senior in high school.

Being physically gifted is one thing, but to have an impact at the next level, you need to have technical ability. That is where Moore truly excels, as arguably the best route runner in this class.

Moore could have a huge impact as a freshman.

Auburn earns spot in 2024 receiver’s top schools list

Auburn is in the mix to land a priority four-star receiver from Tampa, Florida.

Auburn will look to boost its receiver room in the 2024 recruiting cycle and is on its way to making it happen.

[autotag]T.J. Moore[/autotag], a four-star receiver from Tampa, Florida, recently dropped his top 13 choices, and Auburn is in the mix.

Auburn was one of the first schools to extend an offer to Moore by joining Central Michigan and UCF in doing so last August. Since then, Moore has earned 36 offers from Power Five programs including USC, Michigan, Oregon, and Texas.

Since the start of the Hugh Freeze era, [autotag]Cadillac Williams[/autotag] and wide receivers coach [autotag]Marcus Davis[/autotag] have taken over as Moore’s primary recruiters. This helps, as Moore plays high school for former Auburn receiver [autotag]Jeris McIntyre[/autotag] at Tampa Catholic.

According to a scouting report by Andrew Ivens of 247Sports, Moore is a “big play wide receiver with exceptional hands” and “should be viewed as a potential WR1 at the Power Five level.” In his 11th-grade season at Tampa Catholic, he caught 42 passes for 1,021 yards and 13 TD.

Moore is a 6-3, 190-pound four-star wide receiver that ranks No. 21 in the nation at the position and is the No. 22 overall prospect from Florida for the 2024 cycle. The 2024 recruiting class for Auburn currently ranks No. 22 according to 247Sports and is headlined by four-star QB [autotag]Walker White[/autotag] and four-star RB [autotag]J’Marion Burnette[/autotag].

Florida offensive lineman announces he’s transferring

Florida football’s redshirt junior offensive lineman T.J. Moore announced he is transferring from the program through the NCAA portal.

While the college basketball transfer portal has been active during the NCAA Tournament, the college football portal continues to see its fair share of additions as well.

The latest isn’t good news for Florida fans, however.

On Thursday, offensive lineman T.J. Moore announced he has entered the transfer portal and is seeking a fresh start with a new program. The former four-star recruit out of Charlotte, North Carolina, has seen action in four-straight seasons with Florida but all in reserve time. As a graduate transfer, he’s seeking to find a program to come in and start right away for his final season.

It also hasn’t taken long for Moore to see some interest from programs in his new recruitment. Per Mike Farrell of Rivals, Kansas, Temple, Charlotte, Coastal Carolina, Appalachian State and Western Kentucky have already shown interest.

With interest coming in, it shouldn’t be long before Moore finds a new home. For the Gators, this is a blow to their depth on the offensive line which has struggled to play at a high level over the past few years.
