Mocs’ Moore is ready

Latest lineOn the second day of the Mocs’ offensive line rebuilding project, the unit went through roughly the same practice as Saturday.One difference was Nick Gipson playing with the first team in place of Will Hewiit, who worked with the first squad Saturday. Overall, Omre Harris, Austin Wilson and Adam Miller have played like the experienced veterans they are. Taylor Dodds has been mostly sound at left tackle and Gipson, who played in four games last season, was solid.”It’s different for me because last year I was the youngest and now me and Adam are the oldest ones on the line,” Wilson said. “The freshmen are coming along and we’re going to keep building on what we did last year.”

Since his first day as a college football player, cornerback Chaz Moore has refused to be intimidated.

Moore arrived at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga last August as a 17-year-old eager and ready to go up against any wide receiver that lined up across from him.

“He was a pretty vicious kid last year at whatever he was, 155 [pounds] or something like that,” Mocs coach Russ Huesman said. “He threw his body around.”

Moore was listed at 5-foot-10, 160 pounds in the Mocs’ 2010 media guide. In reality, he weighed 149 pounds and was (and is) about 5-9.
