Four-Star WR Elijah Moore commits to Florida State

Four-star wide receiver Elijah Moore of Olney (MD) Good Counsel High announced his commitment to Florida State Tuesday afternoon.

The 6-foot-4, 207 pounder chose the Seminoles over Ohio State, Maryland, Michigan, and Florida.

Moore on why he chose Florida State

“It is a family aspect with the coaching staff,” Moore said. “They always keep it real with me, and offered me in my freshman year before the season. Florida State stayed in contact all four years even through my surgery. Coach Norvell is a great person and a top-tier head coach. Also, there’s nice people, weather, and landscape there. It just feels like home.

Relationship with coaching staff + their plan for him 

“I’m close with coach Dugans, I love him a lot. He and coach Norvell both contact me a lot and we always keep in touch.”

The Maryland wide receiver joins coach Mike Norvell and the Seminoles’ top 15 class in the 2024 team rankings. He is accompanied by five-star tight end Landen Thomas, four-star running back Kam Davis, and others.

Moore ranks as the No. 333 player in the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He also tabs in as the No. 58 wide receiver and the No. 10 player in the state of Maryland.

He currently does not have an On3 NIL Valuation publicly listed. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
