USC has hired Eric Musselman, the Arkansas head basketball coach with California roots and NBA experience, to lead the Trojans into the Big Ten era.
At a critical crossroads for its men’s hoops program, USC announced it has tapped Arkansas coach Eric Musselman to guide the Trojans into a new conference and a new era, after the last one ended with a thud. Musselman interviewed with USC on Wednesday, just two days after Andy Enfield left USC for the same role at Southern Methodist after 11 seasons, five NCAA tournament appearances and 220 wins in L.A., the third-most in school history.
Assuming star freshman Isaiah Collier declares for the NBA draft, as expected, and defensive stalwart Kobe Johnson sticks with his plans to transfer to UCLA, USC will have to replace all five of its starters from last season. Its top recruit, Harvard Westlake’s Trent Perry, reopened his recruitment this week. Two key reserves, Oziyah Sellers and Kijani Wright, are currently in the transfer portal and may at some point be joined by freshman Bronny James.
