Re: Chadd Moore starting at PG tonight

[richard l. kandell]

Is this a kick in the a__ message for Mr. Hicks?  Kirkland has on occasion
received significant minutes - now Moore has a chance.  Hollman said he
figured out that in order to play in games Huggins expect that you bust your
rear end every day - all through every practice.  Kirkland and Moore seemed
to have figured that out - now if we can get that through to Hicks all will
be well with this class.
