Alrighty, here's how we'll handle this.

We need a 4th scholarship guard that is not Chaz Owens, because while he received a scholarship and therefore meets a strict technical definition of being a scholarship player, his recruiting rankings and scholarship offers suggest that he is a player that if not for connection to the program via his parentage, would have been a head scratching addition to any program in the ACC and does not project to contribute to the program in a way we expect from scholarship recipients, and rather, projects to and has already proven to make the types of contributions expected of walkons (ie garbage time blow out minutes, sideline dances, etc.)...

:gasping breath:

...furthermore, given the risk to injury of our top three guards, and that in an ideal scenario competitive practices require a minimum of 4 guards of a somewhat similar skill level or potential similar skill level, which nothing in Chaz Owens' player profile suggests he has, I submit that if the plan is to roll with Chaz as our 4th guard, we have chosen precarious depth for no seemingly logical reason.
