Tyquilo Moore, a freshman defensive tackle at Butler Community College, orally committed to Kansas State on Sunday.

The 6-foot-4, 295-pounder is expected to sign with K-State next month and play for the Wildcats next season. He will have three years of eligibility in Manhattan.

Moore had 10 tackles during his debut season at Butler, including 2.5 for loss.

He is the second Butler player to join K-State’s 2018 recruiting class. The other is fullback Luke Sowa, who signed with the Wildcats in December and is already enrolled in classes.

Moore’s commitment was also the second recruiting addition of the weekend for K-State. On Saturday, the Wildcats picked up a commitment from Michigan State transfer Hunter Rison, son of former Kansas City Chiefs receiver Andre Rison.
