But his skillset was pretty limited, and I think we can upgrade a lot at WR with him transferring out. He apparently was a really good team-first guy that had great leadership qualities, so that will be tougher to replace. Good luck to him.
Monday at 05:05 PM2 days Sometimes as a fan there are players you just don't like. DeAndre Moore was that dude for me. So hyped every year, and such an astonishingly average player. See you never. Edited Monday at 05:05 PM2 days by texifornia

So hyped every year, and such an astonishingly average player. See you never. It was tiring to hear the 9.95ers rave about him being the first player to practice every day and how he was molding his game after Jordan Whittington when his actions the last two offseasons have been the opposite of anything Whittington would do.

So hyped every year, and such an astonishingly average player. See you never. I patiently waited for him to look like an upper tier P4 WR. Never happened. Not a bad guy as a third or fourth WR, but that's not what we needed from him (and I assume he wasn't being paid like one).

Dude came in with his hand out and claiming to be Mr. Team First then proceeded to do stupid shit and drop balls. 2 minutes ago, texifornia said: Sometimes as a fan there are players you just don't like. DeAndre Moore was that dude for me. So hyped every year, and such an astonishingly average player. See you never. It's the bullshit. That's my problem with him. He put himself out there as the next leader in team culture and the guy who would do the dirty work. He set expectations and then fell well short of them. I'm not even talking about the drops - although they were frustrating - I'm talking about the boneheaded shit he did that fucked us over and let opponents stay in games. Team leaders put in the off the field work to make sure that kind of shit doesn't happen. Not when you're in year 3 of your career. Worthy extorted us for money every off season, but he backed it up on the field and never pretended to be something he wasn't. Whittington never put up gaudy numbers but he also never demanded a gaudy salary and you could tell that he was an actual team leader who put the team first. And that's just thinking about the WR room. Dude is just a massive disappointment in every respect.
Monday at 05:20 PM2 days There was a guy on the football board last week who kept confidently saying that Deandre Moore saved our season after he "returned from his injury". Like six guys immediately told him he was, apparently, thinking about Mosley, but he kept tripling and quadrupling down that, no, he was referring to Moore. It was actually hilarious. This guy actually thought that Deandre Moore saved our season.
Monday at 05:21 PM2 days Do we have stats on wide receiver drops this year? Feels like Wingo was worse than Moore when it came to dropping passes. At least Wingo was housing WR screens and making the tough catches.

On the other hand - no shit dude wants to meet with you face-to-face.

But he kept doubling down and I couldn't think of a way to tell him to let it go without talking down to him.

Idk where all this drop talk is coming from. Moore wasn't a gamechanger but he wasn't bad either
Monday at 05:34 PM2 days Author Popular Post Moore had agreed to a number heading into last December that people could make sense of, even if it was high and based more on hope for 2025 than anything he’d done up that point. They then waited until Texas had sorted its commitments out to retention, to guys in the portal and the signing class, at which point they doubled their ask, bringing it up massively. The choice was to meet the ask rather than risk not having a replacement and even facing, if I remember correctly, the premise of him leaving before the ASU or Ohio State game (can’t remember which). That ultimately impacted the ability to land other portal guys who had an interest in Texas at other key positions. Now the dude is asking for something like $1M. I hope Texas laughed in his fucking face. I think he is worth backup money to someone else, but they’ll find someone desperate and he’ll get $500K or something. For Texas, having him on the roster and drawing a paycheck puts other players at risk of leaving. So, yeah, fuck him.

The renegotiating ahead of the playoff game put him in Nico Iamalavea territory for me. It’s purely transactional now and he was not that good. Wasn’t he also the asshole that went out of bounds against Kentucky that almost cost us the game? Even if he wasn’t good fucking riddance.

Monday at 06:43 PM2 days Y'all need to get over the fact that almost all receivers are going to drop a few balls per season and the difference between the best and the worst isn't going to be that significant. For me that's way down the list in evaluating WRs behind things like ability to create separation, willingness and ability to block on the perimeter, and elusiveness and speed to go all the way when running after the catch.

Monday at 06:58 PM2 days I had high hopes for Moore and Johntay Cook. I think a lot of people did given their rankings, but instead I think it’s safe to say we would take McJaggy over either of them now
