Top WR in ’23 class latest to decommit from OU

Wide receiver Deandre Moore Jr. decommitted from Oklahoma on Monday. Moore is the No. 11 prospect in the 2023 class and was the highest ranked commitment in the Sooners class.
A 5-foot-11, 190-pound receiver out of Los Alamitos High School in Los Alamitos, California, Moore is the No. 1 receiver overall.
He had been committed to Oklahoma since September, but is now opening up his recruitment.
Moore is teammates with two other ESPN Junior 300 recruits who also decommitted from the Sooners, in quarterback Malachi Nelson and receiver Makai Lemon.
Nelson is a five-star, ranked No. 3 overall, and flipped his commitment to USC after decommitting from Oklahoma, to follow coach Lincoln Riley. Lemon, who is ranked No. 21 overall as the fourth-best receiver, also flipped to the Trojans after Riley left Oklahoma.
At one point, the Sooners had three ESPN Jr. 300 receivers committed with Moore, Lemon and Brandon Inniss, but Inniss decommitted in November and has yet to announce a new destination.
The Trojans are in play for Moore, as is Louisville and a handful of other programs. Now that he has decommitted, more schools will likely try to get in the conversation.
