Grant Moser loves playing linebacker, so hearing exactly how Fresno State envisions his future made a lasting impression.
During his official visit in June, the Buchanan High senior met with the Bulldogs’ coaching staff, including linebackers coach Adam Breske, who told Moser he sees him as a versatile defender capable of playing either middle or outside linebacker.
Those words resonated with Moser.
“I’m kind of a hybrid type of player,” he said.
Fresno State’s coaches also liked what they saw from Moser during the Bulldogs’ 7-on-7 camp. They even joked that he could play tight end, though Moser’s future appears firmly on the defensive side of the ball.
Moser, listed at 6-foot-4 and 200 pounds, enjoyed every aspect of his official visit from June 12-14.
He sat in on morning and afternoon position meetings, experienced the program’s routine firsthand and took part in the traditional Friday photo shoot inside Valley Children’s Stadium before joining coaches and fellow recruits for dinner.

“It was an experience like no other,” Moser said.
Moser, a three-star recruit by Rivals, helped lead Buchanan to an 8-4 record in 2025, finishing with 40 tackles, eight tackles for loss, six pass deflections and two interceptions.
He is one of a handful of Fresno-area recruits who have committed to Fresno State, a trend he believes speaks volumes about the direction of the program.
“They’re really building something special,” Moser said of the Bulldogs’ coaching staff. “The local commits committed to Fresno State … let’s say it’s for a reason.”
