Moore picks UC before other visits
Recruit passes on Maryland, Georgetown
By Michael Perry
The Cincinnati Enquirer
Chadd Moore intended to take recruiting visits to the University of Cincinnati, Maryland and Georgetown. By the end of the first day of an unofficial visit to UC on Saturday, the 6-foot-2 guard from Huntsville, Ala., said, he told coach Bob Huggins he wanted to be a Bearcat.
“I wanted to go visit some other places,” Moore said Sunday night. “I didn't want to commit early. But I think this is the best place for me. When I took the visit, I couldn't do anything but commit. It's a great program. What do I think of Coach Huggs? The world. He's honest. He's says what's on his mind. He doesn't beat around the bush.”
It also helped that Moore is from the same city as UC sophomore Rod Flowers, who played at a rival high school in Huntsville.
Moore said he averaged 25 points, seven assists and five steals at Lee High School as a junior. This season, he will play at Oak Hill Academy, the prep school powerhouse in Mouth of Wilson, Va.
Dave Telep of BlueChipHoops.com and ESPN.com have Moore rated No.62 in the country. CNNSI.com has him 44th.
“I think part of Chadd's value is his ability to play both (guard) positions,” Telep said. “I thought he had a pretty good spring and summer as a two-guard, but schools were certainly recruiting him to play the point. You can put whatever label you want on Chadd, the guy can score the basketball and that's got a big value.”
