2025 Duncanville (Tex.) wide receiver Dakorien Moore was one of the stories of Week 1 across the country. After an offseason spent working on flexibility and body control, Moore shined in his first outing for the Panthers.

The five-star prospect totaled seven passes for 281 yards and three scores as his team beat up on Dallas (Tex.) South Oak Cliff.

“It’s something that we’ve already been looking forward to,” Moore told On3. “I had a lot of bombs and deep balls last year. They know my speed, they know my athleticism. I know I might be getting doubled, might be 10-20 yards back. It ain’t nothing new. I’m still going to play ball and have fun with it.

“I know for a fact I’m the best receiver in this class.”

Four-star quarterback Keelon Russell and Moore connect well on the field. The two 2025 prospects have been working on their timing for years.

“Tremendously. In 7th grade, we had the chemistry, but I’d say it’s way better now,” Moore said. “He can just throw the ball up and just say, ‘Forget it. Kori’s out there somewhere.’ I’d say the chemistry is 100 right now.”

The LSU commit is trying to nab another state championship after winning one as a sophomore. Moore and the Panthers are off to a great start.

“I’d say we’re definitely trying to go 15-0 again. We want another one. It’s even more this year because we want to get Samp (Duncanville coach Reginald Samples) two of them before he retire. He’s getting a little older. We want to do it one more time before he leaves.”

Moore is ranked as the No. 10 overall prospect and the No. 2 wide receiver prospect on the On3 Industry Rankings, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
