It's likely that Arizona, and other Pac-12 teams will get less nationally broadcast games as a consequence next season.

Ironically, Bronny might not even be a starter his frosh year.

And, if he does, in fact, develop as many project, he'll be worthy of USC's TV time when USC is in the BIG.

OTOH, Enfield is going to be operating under a spotlight that could easily become lose/lose for the coach.


LOL, USC basketball tickets will be a hot commodity for about three games and then their fan base will lose interest again.

Precisely the dilemma that will bug Enfield.

IMNSHO, no recruit should have playing time or starting guaranteed in advance. NOT ONE!

Okay, I'm officially convinced that USC is the league favorite next season.

I'm currently watching Oregon State beat USC 47-30 in the 2nd half.

If there was ever a coach that got the least out of the most it has to be Andy Enfield.

What baffles me is how he keeps signing up all of those hot shot All-American recruits. Makes one wonder.

Enfield is not a good coach, clearly. Like their crosstown rival, they're just unable to draw a top tier coach.

USC should give Bronny every cent they have in thanks for keeping them relevant this season.

Vaunted USC can't defend home court from the Palouse invaders.

Basketball had to die so football could soar.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

I had a discussion with a USC fan at the start of the season, and he was rather surprised they were ranked. I told him I didn't think they'd be ranked in March, but being where they are in the talent pool stakes, even with the incompeyent AD who keeps hiring lousy coaches, they have to get lucky on occasion. I didn't expect them to bomb like this.
