USC men’s basketball
Wow. Just got back from USC men’s basketball season opener against Mercer.
And I just have to say, I’ve been a hard core USC fan for life.
Today, they played pathetically. I could’ve stuck my high school girls team out there and we could’ve made more free throws than USC did. The first half was just plain sad, and the second half was a little better but USC just gave up.
If they play like that for the remainder of the season, i’m already kissing NCAA tournament hopes goodbye.
One bright spot though (depending on which way you look at it): O.J Mayo. This guy’s pretty good. He had 30+ points today. On the other hand, he IS the team. Besides for him and Taj Gibson, no one else was creating plays or scoring. It almost seemed like the hoop we were shooting at was twice as small as the hoop where Mercer was shooting.
But how long with O.J stay with us? No clue. I’m betting he leaves after this year. And then we’re dead. uh oh.
