USC In Final Three for Moore

LB Kendall Moore (6-3 231) of Raleigh, NC has cut his list from seven, to five, and now to a final three of USC, NC State and Notre Dame, and he plans to announce his choice July 11th. He visited Notre Dame last weekend and doesn't have any other visits planned before his announcement.

Moore says his three finalists are even with him at this time. "Everybody is at a level playing field right now," Moore said. "I'm looking for just a good fit for me overall. There should be a method to the madness of how they want to use me as long as they have a good understanding of how they see me going into a position, have a nice plan. Good academics also will play a role."

Moore said he gets personal letters from USC recruiter Brad Lawing weekly. "He just tells me how he sees me at South Carolina," Moore said. "I have to figure out which one is the best fit."

Last season Moore had 120 tackles with 11 sacks.
