UCLA has a quarterback battle on its hands between five-star recruit Dante Moore and redshirt junior Ethan Garbers. What does Chip Kelly have to say?

Dante Moore

“If you pick Player B over Player A and everybody in the locker room thinks it’s Player A, that’s never a good situation. So it has to be won on the field.” Maybe Moore will prevail in UCLA’s most heated quarterback battle since graduate transfer Wilton Speight edged Thompson-Robinson, Devon Modster and Austin Burton in 2018. Maybe Moore will be patient if he doesn’t. He said after arriving on campus in January that he understood the only guarantee next season would be Thompson-Robinson throwing his next pass in the NFL.

Kelly called Moore an “old soul” who doesn’t have the me-first mindset of many top prospects, pointing to him hanging out with the kicker, long snapper and punter in the hospitality room the night before the U.S. Army Bowl., a fifth-year senior, told Moore to calm down and breathe during spring practice when the young quarterback appeared to be on the verge of hyperventilating.

Three years later, Thompson-Robinson became the starter in his second game after Speight went down with a back injury in the second quarter of the opener.
