Ziggy Moore brings captain energy and downhill instincts to NC State's linebacker room
In the 2026 season, freshman NC State linebacker Ziggy Moore enters with a three-star profile, a national linebacker ranking of No. 124, and a reputation for being athletic, explosive, and highly instinctive. His high school résumé is loud: 350 tackles, 20 touchdowns, and five interceptions, plus team-captain credentials and two first-team all-conference honors. The separator here is versatility and feel — he played both sides of the ball, showed production as a runner, and the Wolfpack staff praised his football IQ and awareness. He looks like a smart, high-motor fit for a defense that wants impact and attitude.
