Top-Ranked WR Chooses

Orlando (Fla.) Dr. Phillips wide receiver Ryan Moore has made his decision.

"Ryan has committed to Miami," Dr. Phillips coach Dave Langdon told GatorBait magazine. "He made it official yesterday."

Moore, a 6-foot-4, 188-pound receiver ranked as the top wideout in the country by Rivals, chose Miami over Florida, South Carolina and Tennessee. He was scheduled to make his final visit to Florida this weekend.

"Jerry is going to keep trying to get him up there this weekend," Langdon said of new Florida head coach Jerry Zook. "He called again this morning. For now, he’s not visiting. I had thought he would go up there and get the full treatment of a visit before committing, but he was more comfortable doing it this way."

Moore was once leaning towards South Carolina during the recruiting process, but had almost committed to Miami back in August and most people felt the Hurricanes would win out in the end. This is the second commitment this week for Miami as defensive end Baraka Atkins reached the coaching staff today as well to make his commitment official.
