WVU offensive line coach Rick Trickett paid a visit to one of the top high school players in West Virginia.
On Wednesday, Princeton Senior High School’s Landyn Moore posted about the visit from the legendary WVU coach on his X account.
The 6-foot-5, 290 pound recruit is part of the 2027 class. He helped lead the Tigers to their first State Championship in program history last season.
Moore has started garnering more attention from FBS programs, including a few Power 4 schools. Along with WVU football, the in-state standout has also taken visits to Wake Forest and Virginia Tech. So far, he has a total of seven Division I offers including Oklahoma State, ECU, Marshall, Coastal Carolina, Army, Eastern Michigan and Liberty. He is not yet rated by 247 Sports or Rivals/On3. However, Prep RedZone lists him as the top 2027 recruit in the state of West Virginia.
One of Moore’s Princeton teammates, Brad Mossor, has already signed with WVU football and plans to enroll this Summer. The prolific athlete excelled at both wide receiver and running back. He scored all five Tiger touchdowns in their Class AAA State Championship win over Nitro.
Per Moore’s social media accounts, he will graduate high school early. That means he will likely be able to enroll at the school of his choice in January 2027, prior to the start of spring camp.
