E'twaun Moore, the 6-foot-3, 170-pound combo guard from East Chicago (IN) Central High School is extremely pleased with where his recruitment stands at this time. While the No. 71 ranked player in the class of 2007 is wide-open right now, a number of high-major institutions are showing a high amount of interest in the four-star prospect.
"Tennessee, Miami-FL, Illinois, Iowa and Purdue are the main schools that I am interested in," said Moore. "I have received scholarship offers from Purdue, Iowa, Tennessee, Miami-FL and Virginia Tech. Tennessee and Purdue are the schools that have been by to watch me play this year.

"I have not taken any unofficial visits yet and I don't really think that will take place," he added. "I do plan to take some official visits, but I don't believe that I am going to use all five. Miami-FL, Tennessee, Illinois and Purdue are the schools that I plan to officially visit."
Moore knows that he will eventually have to start making some decisions about his future, but he is in no rush to do so just yet. In fact, he is going to focus all of his attention on his junior campaign.
"The season is going alright," said Moore. "We are 10-4 overall and playing pretty well as a group. I am averaging 26-points and four assists per game. I am playing the shooting guard position for my team, but I have the ability to play either position.
"It doesn't matter if I play the point guard or shooting guard," he added. "I really feel comfortable playing either position."
