It won't be easy to flip Moore, but he's also not just turning a blind eye to the suitors.

"It's all about he people and relationships at each school," Moore told Volquest. "Really all the schools are the same in terms of facilities and things. It's about he people you are going to be around every day."

Moore, who as among the top performers at the Atlanta Opening camp on Sunday, is familiar with new Tennessee defensive coordinator Derrick Ansley. It's a relationship that will likely gain traction as Tennessee continues to recruit Moore.

"When he was at Alabama, I was younger so we didn't talk a whole lot," Moore said. "Then he went to the league and is now back at Tennessee. He followed me on twitter the other day so I'm sure I'll be getting back up there and talking to him."

Moore also still hears from Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt, who has well chronicled ties to the state of Alabama.

"He hits me up about getting back up there for a visit," Moore said. "I'm still opening to listening just because you never know what can happen. He is a big reason I have interest in Tennessee. The way he came in and changed the culture last year. Some of the Tennessee players text me and tell me how different it is up there now. That they need players like me to come up."

Last month in Gatlinburg, Moore was a part of a Southern Xpress 7-on-7 team that went toe to toe with a talented California team. He was matched up with 4-star wide receiver Kris Hutson and had his fair share of success.

"I love going against good competition,' Moore said. "It just helps me prove that I'm one of the best players in the country. We had a lot of respect for one another. Those moments help make you better."

Moore hears consistently from Florida, Texas A&M, Georgia, LSU, Michigan, Auburn and Tennessee. He chose not to stop by campus after the 7-on-7 tournament because it was late and Ansley was already gone of the day. He hopes to get back up to Tennessee later this spring and summer.

Moore is constantly working on his craft, but he has some traits that make him special.

"I think it's my press coverage skills and my football I.Q.," Moore said. "I know I have things to improve on and I'm always working. I want to be better when I have to play off and just be more technically sound on every play."
