Is This USC Team An Arkansas “Triplets” Lite?
In the late 1970s, Hall of Fame coach Eddie Sutton had a team at Arkansas with three star, high scoring 6-foot-4 guards led by Sidney Moncrief. The two starting bigs were good defenders and rebounders, complimenting the guards. This season’s Trojans may look like that Razorback team, at least at first glance Much of the scoring could come from Drew Peterson, Boogie Ellis and Reese Dixon-Waters. The freshman bigs, along with Josh Morgan, could provide interior defense and rebounding. Let’s do a deep dive into both teams and explore the similarities and differences.
