Defensive back Byron Moore (Harbor City, Calif./ Narbonne) took his third and final official visit this past weekend to Colorado and is now set to make his announcement this coming Wednesday.
As most know, Moore committed last spring to UCLA and then switched over to USC after picking up an offer from the Trojans at their summer camp. A few weeks go, Moore decided to de-commit from USC and visited Boulder after also visiting Notre Dame during the season.
"It was a great trip," Moore said. "The campus was beautiful, the players and coaches were all fun to be around and I can definitely picture myself playing at Colorado for the next four years of my life.
"The coaches are all about the players there and I have a good relationship with Coach Hagan who has been recruiting me for a while now. I loved my visit to Notre Dame too and now that I've taken this last visit, I can compare evenly all three of my final schools and lay out all the positives and negatives."
The third school in the mix Moore was referring to is USC. After de-committing, most assumed the Trojans were out of the running but Moore said that wasn't the case.
"USC is still in it for sure," Moore said. "I'm still in contact with them but I wanted to look at some other options too. I wanted to be respectful and I felt that if I'm going to look around, I should de-commit to be fair to the other schools and let them know I was serious about them.
"Coach Carroll told me he understood but also said he was going to keep fighting for me and I told him that was fine. Now I have a few days to look over everything and then I'll be ready to decide early Wednesday morning."
Moore is planning to announce live on ESPNU on Wednesday at 10:00 a.m. ET
