The USC Triple-Double Podcast -- the Peristyle Podcast's basketball-focused podcast -- returns with co-hosts Shotgun Spratling and Connor Morrissette (aka Mr. Triple Double) breaking down the 2-0 starts of the USC men's and women's basketball programs and looking forward to the next week of action including a ACC/Big 10 matchup with Cal.
Also special guest USC men's assistant head coach Anthony Ruta comes on to discuss the first week of action in the Eric Musselman era. He talks about the positives and negatives of the first two games, discusses the design of schedule building, including what the Trojans were trying to do with their schedule this season, and breaks down how Musselman and his staff try to teach players in a variety of different styles to be able to reach each player better.
Shotgun and Connor look at where the men and women's programs stand after the first week of play and preview the upcoming week that will see four games played at the Galen Center between the two programs. The Women of Troy welcome a CSUN squad that is one win away from tying its total from last season when it went 3-27 losing 26 games in a row. They then play a unique afternoon matinee matchup against Santa Clara on Friday.
The USC men continue their battle with the state of Texas, facing off against another UT school in UT-Arlington on Wednesday before a strange-to-say ACC-Big Ten matchup against previously familiar foe, California, Sunday evening. However, the Golden Bears, like the Trojans, have a roster that is completely revamped from last season with transfers from all over the country, including Stanford, Vanderbilt, Michigan State, Grand Canyon and others.
