Bad break means A&T needs new QB

GREENSBORO, N.C. -- On the practice field, the red jersey is a red light. The red jersey means hands off. The red jersey means no contact. The red jersey is no guarantee. Lewis Kindle, the sophomore projected as N.C. A&T's starting quarterback, wore a red jersey when he tore up a knee in the waning days of a hot August training camp.And so the Aggies start the second season of coach Alonzo Lee's rebuilding project Saturday with a quarterback who has never handled a snap in a college game.

Terrence Webb, a redshirt sophomore, played sparingly and made two tackles in four games as a defensive back last year. Now he's the quarterback. "We're going with the best athlete on our team," Lee said. "In the weight room, in practice, in everything we do, Terrence Webb is pound-for-pound the best athlete on our team."
