Speaking of the newly offered Moore, he was the Alpha Dog at the Opening Chicago Regional this weekend:

ALPHA DOG

Louisville (Ky.) Trinity receiver Rondale Moore's big day began with huge testing numbers.

The dynamic playmaker posted the second highest Nike Football Rating of the day, a score of 133.62, which also ranks second nationally thus far this spring. The 5-foot-8, 165-pound Moore’s marks included a 4.33 second 40-yard dash, 4.01 shuttle and 42-7 inch vertical.

Moore, who was seen on Twitter bench pressing 300-pounds last week, then took the field and with his eye-popping open field moves made defensive backs look silly in trying to get a hand on him. In 1-on-1s his speed and route running made him a tough cover and one of the best parts of his games is his reliable hands. Moore can make the tough catch look easy.

Ranked by 247Sports as the No. 4 recruit in the state of Kentucky, everything about Moore is on the uptick following this performance including his recruitment. Oregon reached out Sunday night after hearing about the show he put on.

Currently Moore holds offers from the likes of Louisville, Kentucky, Cincinnati, Illinois, Indiana and Purdue, where he visited Saturday, but look for that list to grow in the spring.

As a junior Moore was deemed ineligible until the second round of the state playoffs because of transfer rules, but he was instant impact upon stepping on the field for the national powerhouse Trinity program, catching 20 passes for 464 yards and nine touchdowns in four tournament games.

At this camp, the staff compared him to a Christian Kirk type of prospect.
