Blake Moore joined the Lindenwood football staff for his third season in 2024.
In 2023, Moore guided a defensive unit who boasted two all-conference selections in Kobe McClendon and Ethan Stuhlsatz. McClendon finished the year with 6.5 sacks, fourth most in a single season in program history. During the year, Lindenwood garnered a pair of Defensive Player of the Week honors. Moore helped the defense to its first shutout since 2015 in a 23-0 win over Tennessee Tech during week six of the season. Academically, Lindenwood compiled five CSC Academic All-District selections.
In its first NCAA Division I season, the Lions went 7-3 record, including a 4-1 mark inside Hunter Stadium. Lindenwood picked up a thrilling 21-20 road win over Houston Baptist, as they blocked a punt with 28 seconds left, which was recovered in the end zone for a game-winning score. Lindenwood earned another road victory on October 8 in a 52-49 win over Central Arkansas, which was the start of a four-game winning streak. During that stretch, Lindenwood earned its fist win inside conference play after defeating Murray State in week six. The Lions received votes in the FCS weekly poll on three different occasions during the year. The Lions accumulated 10 all-conference selections and nine OVC weekly accolades, while Kobe McClendon was named a Stats Perform FCS Freshman All-American after an impressive 2022 campaign.
Moore spent last season as the Director of Football Operations at Averett University where he coordinated team meals, travel, and worked heavily in recruiting.
Prior to working at Averett, Moore worked as a Football Video Scout for Sports Info Solutions where he analyzed both NFL and NCAA film. He also participated in "Scout School" where he learned how to evaluate prospects from former NFL scout Matt Manocherian.
Before his time with Sports Info Solutions, he spent three seasons as a student assistant at Washington State University from 2017-2019. He was a part of a staff that produced three straight bowl game appearances including an 11-2 record in 2018 (WSU's most wins in a single season) capped off by an Alamo Bowl victory against Iowa State.
Moore received a degree in sport management with a minor in business from Washington State University.
