It's no joke to say that Gerrity could be the single biggest midseason addition to any team this season -- and the reason his team is in contention for a conference title. Gerrity is no star. He's not going to be an NBA player. He's not going to shock you with his speed or athleticism. But he knows the game, can get the ball where it needs to be, knows when to take the midrange shot, the perimeter shot or penetrate to score. The facts are hard to dispute. USC hasn't lost since the two-time transfer (Pepperdine and Charlotte) became eligible. In the four games he's played for the Trojans, they've beaten Tennessee at home and then went to Hawaii and won the Diamond Head Classic with wins over Western Michigan, Saint Mary's and UNLV. He's already the team's leading scorer, averaging 14.8 points, 4.3 assists, 3.5 rebounds and a steal per game while shooting 57.1 percent on 3s. He has 17 assists and 10 turnovers through his first four games.
