Dylan Moses has yet to start 8th grade, yet he has a scholarship offer to play football at the University of Louisiana State. Moss gained this offer by attending LSU’s football camp in July and running a remarkable 4.46 40-yard dash.
The soon-to-be 8th grader was quoted by ESPN saying, ”I was kind of shocked when I first heard it — it was a dream come true,” Moses, said. “I’ve always wanted to play for LSU since I was a kid, and now it’s coming true in front of my eyes.”
“The coaches told me they were offering — and they were serious. I thought they were playing,” Edward Moses (his father) said. “Really, I thought that they were joking around until I saw the serious look on their faces. So I rolled with it. Let’s see where it’s going to end up.”
There is actually nothing new to college football with offering scholarships to middle schoolers. Back in 2010, USC secured a commitment from a 13-year old quarterback, David Stills, who will sign in their 2015 class.

Even as Miles looks forward to a more potent passing game with new starting quarterback Zach Mettenberger, he still expects LSU to be defined largely by its dominant defense and deep, powerful running game.
