USC is scheduled to face UNC-Asheville on Tuesday to open NIT play.
Whether USC fields a competitive team or not is to be determined. Trojans head coach Andy Enfield, salty over what he deems an NCAA snub after a second-place finish in the Pac-12, was openly flippant about the NIT in a Monday media conference, as relayed by the Orange County Register.
He also floated the idea of sitting players in the NIT, specifically NBA prospect Chimezie Metu.
