"I like how "Jet Ski" (Johnathan Franklin) will still be together," Moore said. "We are going to be special at UCLA."
Moore was recruited basically to play safety but he will also be also be looked at as a corner.
Though Moore is a solid commit he still wants to take some visits.
"I'm still planning on taking trips," Moore said. "I'm planning on taking all five.
"I've always wanted to see Auburn," Moore said. "Miami, Michigan and Ohio State are other possibilities.
