USC Morning Buzz: Football And Basketball Have One Thing In Common

USC will play North Carolina in an exhibition basketball game at Greensboro, N.C., on Oct. 9th. An exhibitiion? USC couldn’t play the Tar Heels in a real game?

USC Notes: Basketball Adds Another Scorer, For Better Or Worse

Just to follow-up on this morning’s post where I noted how coaches do not want to compete. One reason Lincoln Riley took the USC job was because he did not want to go to the SEC with Oklahoma. And he took the USC job before the Trojans moved to the Big Ten. So he gets no credit for playing a Big Ten schedule.

Alijah Arenas Changes Mind, Will Return To USC

The whole Alijah Arenas situation has become so sloppy. He hasn’t made any public announcements, entered his name in the NBA Draft and now has suddenly withdrawn it. Arenas returning to USC will be cheered in many quarters. But I will stand by what I said earlier today. He took 13 shots a game last season (too many); shot 34 percent from the field and … Continue reading Alijah Arenas Changes Mind, Will Return To USC
