Moore spent two seasons with Missouri State after starting his career at Arkansas. A four-star recruit, he joined the Razorbacks in 2021 as the only freshman and departed after one year. He played just five games.

Moore is expected to have two years of eligibility remaining. He joins returners Noel Brown, Miles Rose and Duane Thompson as scholarship athletes on the St. Bonaventure roster.

Other potential recruits have reportedly visited campus, including Panola College transfer Jonah Hinton, Iowa transfer Dasonte Bowen and Rutgers transfer Antwone Woodfolk. Hinton will announce his commitment on Friday.

Shortly after Moore committed to St. Bonaventure, former Bonnies guard Kyrell Luc pledged to Longwood for his final year of eligibility.
