Is he a lock to be a day 1 starter immediately upon arriving at Texas ?( if he chooses Texas of course).

No, he has to earn his starting position. He Wingo, Cook and others ahead of him.

Ant Hill didn’t start is a good example.

Just speculating, but assume(1) Bond, Bolden and Golden play a year and go pro or move on, opening 2 or maybe 3 starting spots.  Assume(2) Cook and Wingo are as good as we think and hope they are and have earned starting jobs for 2025.  That leaves this Moore competing with 3rd year WRs Deandre Moore and Niblett and second year guys Butler, Livingstone and Dubose for the WR3 slot, plus likely someone like Ffrench or Lockett and a third or fourth 2025 WR recruit.  Assume(3) one or two of the 2023 and 2024 guys are not happy with the depth chart and portal out, which still leaves maybe 6 or more guys he has to beat out, all potentially quality players.  Can we assume(4) he is enrolling early?  If not the odds get longer.

Whole lot of assumptions but if Kori is as good as advertised you can assume(5) he has a decent shot at earning the WR3 spot, but he's definitely not a lock.  Say 50-50 to be the starter by the OU - Georgia games?  Who the heck knows at this point, a lot depends on if he enrolls early and the development of the WRs besides Cook and Wingo.

Im still at 65-70% on him ending up at Texas, if that is needed lol

Damn it Gerry can’t even raise it to 70%- 75%??

The fan base will vote every week on who should start.  Therefore, we will get rid of the staff and save that money and use if for NIL.  

I think he's going to be one of those guys who starts *somehow* immediately. Too explosive.

I guess it depends what we do in the portal. Even if we get no one, we're still returning Cook, Wingo, and Moore. 

But I'd put my money on him being on the field for the first snap of 2025.
