USC coach Kevin O’Neill apparently isn’t, a subject I touched in in my NBA draft story about DeMar DeRozan, the second one-and-done Trojan in as many years to go in the top 10.
The other, of course, was O.J. Mayo, whose recruitment essentially was the beginning of the end for Tim Floyd — and, probably, USC’s recent run of hoops prosperity.
Which begs the question:
Should USC continue to pursue potential one-and-done players?
