USC Triple-Double Podcast: Trojans hire Eric Musselman; Women of Troy fall shy of Final Four Peristyle Podcast - USC Trojan Football Discussion

    • Football

The USC Triple-Double Podcast returns with co-hosts Shotgun Spratling and Connor Morrissette (aka Mr. Triple Double) reacting to the breaking news of USC hiring Eric Musselman away from Arkansas to becoming the Trojans' new men's basketball head coach followed by a break down of the Women of Troy's season coming to a conclusion in an Elite Eight loss to UConn following a thrilling Sweet 16 victory over Baylor.
Shotgun and Connor break down the good and the bad of the Musselman hire and discuss what it means about the current state of the USC men's basketball program and the trajectory going forward. They also look at the roster Musselman will inherit and where he'll have to make some big additions before the Trojans head into the Big Ten next season.
After a short break, the podcasting duo break down the final weekend of play for the Women of Troy, who defeated Baylor 74-70 in the Sweet 16 to advance to their first Elite Eight since 1994. There the Trojans fell to Connecticut 80-73 despite 29 points and 10 rebounds for JuJu Watkins, who was elite except for a fourth-quarter stretch when she couldn't make a shot and UConn couldn't miss that ended up determining the game. When Watkins went cold, there was no one there to pick her up as USC's role players, who had been so good all season fulfilling their roles, weren't able to do so in the biggest matchup of the season.
The Triple-Double Podcast comes to a conclusion for the 2023-24 season with Connor and Shotgun discussing the Trojans potential going forward into the offseason.
