USC did watch tape on Oregon ...
After the Pac-10 Tournament final, Tim Floyd said the Trojans wouldn't watch film on game. However, the coach did show the team three minutes of lowlights Tuesday.
``Three minutes of quick shots, long shots, long rebounds, run outs and no commitment to defensive transition,'' Floyd said. ``That's what it was about. But you have to understand those plays took about six minutes each, so it was a lot of them.''
Matthew Kredell broke into the Daily News in 1998, working part time
at the paper while going to USC. The basketball team’s Elite Eight
run in 2000-01 was USC’s athletic highlight in his time at the
school, when the football team was stuck in the Paul Hackett-era.
After graduating in 2001, he started writing for the Daily News full
time. He’s in his second year covering USC, which coincides with the
rise of the program. He’ll take credit for the success, though Tim
Floyd may have more to do with it. A third-generation Los Angelean,
he grew up reading the Daily News while at El Camino Real High School
in Woodland Hills.
