So, was this high school All American Game a valid data point for TJ Moore's

ability to get open and catch footballs against good competition? Probably yes and no. Although the defenders he was playing against were probably very talented, they had very little time to play as a unit, and as a result, the defenses were plain vanilla, as were the offenses. The offensive guy always has an advantage, because he knows in advance where he is going, the defender does not.
Now, that last part should also always be true in college and beyond. So, I have no explanation as to why our CURRENT guys can't seem to get anywhere NEAR as wide open as Moore seemed to be all day today. I just hope some of that daylight translates to CLEMSON.

But you can be impressed by what you see…. But there is a reason why he was our number one WR on the board for the class. When I say number one on our board, that’s over any other in the entire class. We targeted him and made him a priority for a reason.

He’s a beast that our own fans want to hate on so bad it’s wild, he reminds me of our old WRs more then anyone we’ve recruited in a while

Go back on some of the pos
“it’s just practice anyone can do that”
“He’s probably ran that route a thousand times not impressive”
“They aren’t playing tight coverage of course he’s open”

I don't think it's about TJ Moore, those posts are indirect shots at Dabo bc a few posters on this board can't stand him for some reason....maybe it's recruiting or the portal but I don't know , it feels more personal

What I saw was plucking a highly contested back shoulder pass out of the air like it was nothing. Haven’t seen that in Tiger Town in some time.

He’s been like this his entire junior/senior year this game isn’t anything new for TJ he should be rated high then Wesco and every WR not named Smith/Coleman

What will separate Moore from everyone else is his body control in the air and he understands where the ball is supposed to be. I see alot of hate on Cade for not putting the ball down the field but yall are not understanding he was putting the ball in a good spot multiple times but the boundary wrs never get positioned correctly, specifically on those 1v1 fades. Randall was in great position several times, if he just looks to the sidelines he could find the ball(a reason I'm actually optimistic about Randall, he needs coaching, physically he has that, enough speed and he doesn't get pressed into the dirt bc he's so strong at the point of attack, he won't just burn people but he can with coaching be similar to Mike Williams). TJ Moore is like Tee, he does everything with purpose. I'm most excited for Moore in this class.

That's fair, closer in size and Nuk was a more polished route runner.

Maybe by a small margin TJ isn’t a slouch on his routes either, they both have insane catch radius and hand strength. With his size and frame would be comparable to Ross before injury as well. Excited for him to get here been saying for a while he’s better then Wesco

What a talent Mike Williams was and even better yet what a sign or sign in or Jeff Scott and that was not an easy find a lake Marion and the small school they played for and they didn't have a quarterback that can throw h
He would just throw the ball up if you look at his highlights just an amazing player and I'm glad we got him and it's obvious that no one in college football wanted to guard

Bingo...I think the one-handed TD catch from Brown this year is a great example. To Tee Higgins, that's just one of those 50-50, or rather 80-20, balls. We may just see more 80-20 balls in 2024.
