Cincinnati Bearcats freshman center Quadri Moore’s first season in red and black probably didn’t go as he originally planned.
The 6’9″ center played in just 26 games, rarely for more than five or six minutes, and never looked truly comfortable with the ball in his hands in any of them. Moore finished near the worst on the team in scoring, rebounding, assists, turnover rate, and shooting percentage and had one of the most memorable moments from UC’s basketball season (for all the wrong reasons).
It’s easy to be empathetic to a soft-spoken player like Moore and see how he could quickly become dejected from that season.
