USC Basketball: Key Trojans Transfer Heavily Praises Eric Musselman

How far can Musselman lead the Trojans this year?

The USC Trojans basketball team underwent major changes this offseason with new head coach Eric Musselman coming over from Arkansas. Musselman has been one of the better coaches in college basketball for a while now and will look to transform the Trojans program.

If Musselman can bring out the best in his guys, the Trojans will be a tough team this season. While they lost some talent to the NBA, USC still should be competitive this year.

They will be moving to the Big Ten conference for the first time so the competition level will be tougher than they have ever had to deal with. But Musselman is confident in his strategies and believes that his players can find a way to make it work.

Things may not jump off right away with Musselman but he is building something special with the Trojans. USC may bring even more life to its basketball program under the guidance of an extremely successful coach.
