USC men’s basketball lost 15 players from last year’s roster. Eric Musselman has brought in 13 new players. That doesn’t even include the 11 players who left two years ago in Andy Enfield’s last year plus the three players who committed but never showed up after Enfield left. That’s an incredible churn of players: 39 in three years. It’s like a football program. Is it … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: An Amazing Churn Rate

It obviously printed the shirt before the game got … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: When Is Northwestern Game?
USC has offered a scholarship to 6-10 forward Kyle Sanders of Campbell Hall High School. He is the son of former USC basketball player Yamen Sanders. Kyle Sanders just transferred from Bishop Montgomery to Campbell Hall. That’s a pretty good deal because it’s what I’ve heard Arizona is offering QB Oscar Rios.
