USC coach Kevin O’Neill spoke about the Trojans today at Pac-12 media day.

“We’re melding a bunch of guys together,” he said. “But so far, from what I’ve seen in practices, they share the ball, play hard. They like playing with each other. They have good chemistry already.

“Those things are going to be really
important as we go along, especially with the
non-conference schedule we’re playing.
I haven’t seen any real challenges. I’m
sure there will be some when guys don’t play as
much as they want or whatever, but that’s
basketball and that’s something we all have to deal
with.
“But overall I couldn’t be more impressed
with our group so far. We’ll see what happens
going forward, but I like what I have seen out of
them in terms of maturity, and I like what I’ve seen
out of them in terms of being a work team. And
those are the things that are going to be important
for us.”
