Editorial note: The MAC regular season has started. Cedric Moodie returns to the Cardinal lineup and assists the big men (Smith, Murray, Jones) in leading the Cards. The Cardinals are very shaky without experience in the guard position. They have not started the season well; looking good at times, and on the other hand looking terrible also. Look for things to improve as several players get experience and confidence.
