LSU 5-star+ commitment Dakorien Moore remained the No. 1 wide receiver in the country in the newest update to the On300 for the 2025 class.

Moore also remained put as the No. 3 overall prospect in the country, regardless of position.

The Duncanville High star committed to LSU on August 12, 2023, giving the Tigers a verbal pledge from the No. 1 wide receiver in the 2025 class and the No. 1 overall prospect in Texas.

Eight months later, Moore has made multiple return visits to Baton Rouge as a key piece to LSU’s No. 1 ranked recruiting class on On3.

There’s also been buzz around Texas after the in-state Longhorns, once considered the early team to beat, got Moore onto campus most recently for the program’s Junior Day weekend.

Now, Moore is clearing the air on where things stand, telling On3’s Chad Simmons he remains firm with his verbal pledge to LSU.

“It’s always been home, man,” Moore said. “When I committed there from the start it was just the relationships that I built there. It was real genuine and I feel like I can trust them in the moment and stuff like that. That, on top of them being wide receiver U, they were producing some of the best wide receivers that’s in the league right now.

“(LSU wide receivers coach and co-offensive coordinator) Cortez Hankton, I feel like me and him relate a lot. Me and him got the same birthday, so we share a lot of similarities. I see how he coaches, I like the way he coaches, he’s on the grind so I want to be a part of that.”

For On3 National Director of Scouting and Rankings Charles Power, the elite prospect impressed back in the summer, which led into his incredible junior year and now a great junior season the track this spring.

“When we saw Dakorien Moore over the summer, he was the most dangerous 2025 receiver,” Power said. “He really struck fear in defenses. It was kind of a case of him doing what he wanted to do. That carried over to his junior season at Duncanville. He started off that first game that you were at where he had 200+ receiving yards.

“I think he’s a dynamic talent. A guy who has outstanding play speed, a vertical threat, but also has ball skills. He wins at the catch point. Deep play threat who can also finish through contact and I think has translatable skills to really attack every area of the field.”

Moore is one of two wide receivers committed to LSU, joining Louisiana four-star TaRon Francis, who also checked into the On300 in April’s rankings update.
