Physically a late bloomer, coaches initially hesitated to put him in the running back role that he desired. When his family moved to the suburb of Coppell, Texas, Coppell High School already had a highly regarded senior running back, one of the best in school history, and asked the sophomore Moody to spend a season at wide receiver.
During that time, Moody grew taller and put on 25 pounds. His abilities attracted interest from a number of prominent college football programs, notably Texas, Miami and Southern California.
Moody originally verbally committed to Texas, but University of Southern California linebacker coach Ken Norton was able to eventually persuade Moody to change his commitment to the Trojans, enticing him to the challenge of competing against a number of other talented running backs.
