Texas transfer wide receiver DeAndre Moore Jr. commits to Colorado

Texas transfer wide receiver DeAndre Moore Jr. is committing to Colorado, On3’s Hayes Fawcett has learned. It’s an awesome addition to the Buffaloes wide receiving corps.

In 11 games this season for Texas, Moore caught 38 passes for 532 yards and four touchdowns. He was one of the few regulars head coach Steve Sarkisian put out there at wide receiver. Texas saw the offense struggle early in the season before coming on late and showing improvements.

Moore is hoping the trend personally continues, just somewhere else. It’s been a nice few years of development in Austin but the goal in the WR’s final season of eligibility is to go out there and prove himself to the NFL.

Moore played high school football at Los Alamitos (CA) St. John Bosco, where he was a four-star prospect. He was the No. 110 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the Rivals Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Moreover, Moore Jr. was rated as a four-star prospect in the On3 Transfer Portal Industry Rankings. He was the No. 51 overall recruit, and the No. 12 overall wide receiver available after entering their name into the portal before committing to a new beginning.

The 2025-26 college football transfer portal will last 15 days, spanning from Jan. 2 to Jan. 16, the NCAA decided. While players have just over two weeks  to enter the portal, they’re not under a deadline to commit when they enter. Traditionally, the cut-off for committing has been how late a school can enroll a player through admissions, so it varies throughout the sport.
