Eric Musselman, previously the head coach at Arkansas, has been officially hired as the new head coach for USC's men's basketball team after a successful five-year run with the Razorbacks. The 59-year-old coach, known for revitalizing the Arkansas program with two Elite Eight appearances and a Sweet 16, was considered a top candidate to replace Andy Enfield at USC. His move to USC comes after a successful tenure at Arkansas, where he made the program nationally relevant again, amassing a career 221-93 record and leading his teams to six NCAA tournaments. Reports indicate that Musselman and his wife are flying to Los Angeles for the formal announcement. This hiring marks a significant shift in college basketball, as Musselman brings his extensive experience and successful track record to USC.
