USC Lags Behind Ex-Coaches' Teams

0:00On March 16, two years ago, the USC men's basketball program saw major changes when head coach Andy Infield left for Southern Methodist University, and the Trojans brought in Eric Musselman from Arkansas. That move kicked off a chain reaction, as Arkansas then grabbed John Calipari from Kentucky. Fast forward to now, and as clear USC is lagging behind in this coaching shuffle. Calipari has Arkansas thriving after reaching the sweet 16 last season, and they just claimed the South Eastern Conference tournament title. They're looking strong heading into March Madness with solid momentum. Meanwhile, Infield guided Southern Methodist University to their first ever NCAA tournament appearance. The Mustangs earned a spot as one of the last teams in and faced Miami of Ohio in the first four on Wednesday. USC, however, missed the big dance for the second straight year under Musselman. Injuries hit them hard this season, but the overall results have fallen short of expectations, leaving fans in the program frustrated.

1:01Musselman has time to rebuild, but right now USC sits behind both their former coach's new team and his old one, highlighting the tough spot V. Trojans are navigating.
