So the big question tonight is how will USC respond on the court after having self imposed sanctions placed on the program this past weekend.
Coach Kevin O'Neill hopes the team rebounds with a sense of purpose...
O’Neill said this season still holds the promise of being "special." I asked how that could be without the possibility of playing in the NCAA Tournament, which only happens to be the ultimate goal of every college basketball player.
"You can have a special season by playing your hearts out every single game," O’Neill said. "Hopefully, 10 years from now, they’ll look back and say, ‘Remember that group I played with? This group of guys I played with really kicked butt all the time.’
"That’s how you have a special season."
Well, that is all well and good but these are still kids and it should surprise no one if there is a let down.
Anyway...Join us here.
Leave your comments, questions and rants here.
FIGHT ON!

Anyone find a stream?
I found game on channelsurfing.net, but no audio.
Audio is on usctrojans.com, but it is subscription and not synched with channelsurfing.
Oh well,
slow start cost us this highly winnable game. On the other hand it’s not like it really means anything.

Good Call on the Let Down, Para
Where is the playmaking that put up 77 points against Tennessee? This is just a timely reminder that this team simply doesn’t have the depth or perimeter play to make a run in March Madness anyway. IF we made the tourney, we might not have won a game, probably would have been one and done, and only had a shot at sweet 16 with an incredibly fortuitous draw. Might as well take our medicine this season before we bring more horses in to enable deeper runs.
To win conference, we really need road victories over the weaklings. Someone needs to step up and hit some outside shots. Dwight Lewis just can’t do it. Cal is going to be very tough.
Well put
without a consistent perimeter threat the zone will lock us out of the paint, forever.

Meant to say
Dwight can’t do it alone. Too bad Simmons isn’t adding any offense. We sure could use 5 or 6 points a game from him. Word was that his jumper had improved, but he certainly hasn’t shown it.
Ok, did Leonard call glass on his game tying 3? That was funny.
We’ll have to recruit perimeter shooting, just don’t have it now.
