USC wants to be in it for long run - LA Times
This was supposed to be a preamble to their one shining moment, the calm before USC and star recruit O.J. Mayo stormed back into the NCAA tournament in 2008...

...But it turned out those who dismissed USC this season did some shoddy detective work.

The roster included, among other assets, gritty freshman Daniel Hackett, who filled in capably at point guard until Gabe Pruitt returned from an 11-game academic suspension; a menacing inside presence in freshman Taj Gibson; and a steady scoring threat in junior swingman Nick Young...

...so today the fifth-seeded Trojans will play 12th-seeded Arkansas...
