Obviously the jury is still out on Moyer.  I've noticed he's taken quite a few mid range jump shots from the baseline.  This is a shot you almost never see anybody take (for good reason, its an inefficient shot), and he hasn't made one yet, but I assume that if he's taking them its because he is making them in practice.  I can't remember anybody scoring from there consistently since Lawrence Moten.  If he can make a shot or two a game from that spot it will be good for us, and force defenses to guard a new area of the court.  His main offense will come from rebounds/put backs.  I think he will be a good garbage-man type player, and every team needs one of them.  We just need to remember when evaluating Moyer that garbage players don't show their value against the worst teams on the schedule, they show their value against the best teams on the schedule when things are hardest.  Thus we won't be able to truly evaluate Moyer until we play those teams.

Agree with you about Thorpe.  He is way behind.  I'm hoping he will catch up by ACC play.  The good news is we know he can do it, because he's done it in the past.  I still think he will be a very important player for us.
