HAYDEN MOORE - Minnesota Moore was not closely recruited by the in-state and regional powers however Minnesota may have discovered a gem right here. The 6-foot-2 three-star from Newberry, Fla., will get off the road properly (though many opponents oddly give him free launch) after which he's a easy route runner who could make lots of catches with defensive backs draped on him.

Moore had practically 1,000 receiving yards and averaged round 20 yards per catch, a deep risk Minnesota’s offense wants.
