Former USC running back Emmanuel Moody will transfer to UF and enroll in classes, Moody said in an interview Monday.
The sophomore rushed for 459 yards last season on 79 attempts in nine games before an ankle injury sidelined him for the last four games.
His performance was good enough for The Sporting News to name him Pac-10 Offensive Freshman of the Year, and he was also featured on a regional cover of Sports Illustrated's college football preview along with two other Trojans.
Moody visited North Carolina and UF last week, and had scheduled trips to Oklahoma State and Texas - which he canceled after his visit to Gainesville.
He will have to sit out the 2007 season because of Division 1-A transfer rules.
