Ethan Moore Seeks New Chapter After Redshirt Freshman Year
Ethan Moore, the No. 94 overall prospect in the 2025 class according to Perfect Game, has entered the transfer portal after a redshirt freshman season with the Tennessee Volunteers. The move comes following a breakout year for the Vols under head coach Josh Elander, who guided the program to a 38‑22 overall record and a 15‑15 mark in the SEC.
Moore’s impact was evident early, as the Volunteers posted a perfect 14‑0 record in midweek games, the only team in the nation to finish unbeaten in that segment. Their schedule featured series victories over several top‑10 opponents, underscoring the program’s rapid ascent in its first season under Elander.
The Volunteers’ campaign concluded in the Chapel Hill Regional, where they fell after reaching the postseason for the seventh consecutive season. The team’s midweek dominance and strong SEC performances highlighted a promising trajectory for the program.
Moore’s decision to explore the transfer portal reflects a growing trend among college baseball players seeking fresh opportunities. The portal remains open for Division I athletes until June 30, allowing them to evaluate potential destinations without committing to a new school immediately.
