RE: Chadd Moore starting at PG tonight

[Wedinger, Keith]

I agree with your logic as long as UC continues to hold the opponent to
under 60.  If Chadd ends up getting continually burned on the defensive end,
his stint as starting PG will be a short one.  Hopefully, Eric Hicks has
seen how Chadd has practiced as of late and realizes that this is the only
way to see increased minutes during games.

Would you rather, as a team, have 5 turnovers and score 51 points, or have
10 turnovers and score 71 points.  We all know where the 5 turnovers and 51
points got us, a loss against Clemson.

 I'm not expecting Chad to instantly cure the offensive woes, but if he can
help open up the offense to get us consistently scoring in the 70's or 80's
then I don't care if he has 4 turnovers a game and plays slightly worse
defense then Taron.
