Gus Williams, one of the greatest players in USC basketball history, died Wednesday. He was 71.

Collier was projected as the No. 1 pick in most mock drafts a year ago. But Dillon Jones of Weber State went 26th while Collier went 29th to the Utah Jazz. Thanks, Enfield! Now I think Collier will end … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: This Would Have Shocked People A Year Ago
