Kenneth Moore

Stockton (Calif.) St. Mary’s wide receiver Kenneth Moore has committed to UCLA. The 5-foot-10, 160-pound had 16 offers and the Bruins beat out Arizona and Washington for his commitment.

“I have been to UCLA three times this year, and every time I go, it’s always a great family-oriented vibe and they honestly make me feel at home,” Moore told On3.

DeShaun Foster and his staff offered Moore back on June 18. The Bruins have been in pursuit since. That effort factored into Moore’s decision.

“They have recruited me very consistently. I have been keeping in touch with multiple coaches and staff members multiple times a week. They have made me feel like a priority for their program, which is an amazing feeling.

“The amazing staff was one of the reasons I chose UCLA. How they are an aspiring winning program was another factor. The opportunity to play close to home and early also helped me make my decision.”

The No. 54 prospect in California took the time he needed to take with the process. Moore got the offers he wanted and ook some visits. He sees Foster as a head coach who is for his players and cares about them. The time was right to make his decision.

“Coach Foster has big plans to get the program back on the path to greatness,” Moore said. “I honestly just felt like this was the perfect time for me to commit. Now I can prepare for the next level even sooner.”
