Arkansas basketball is a better job than USC hoops, but living in northwest Arkansas might not hold a candle to California living for a guy like Musselman who has spent a lot of time out west and played his college ball at the U of San Diego. Seems like a weird move nonetheless.

He took the Arkansas program to 2 Elite 8's and 1 Sweet 16, so he's a tournament coach. He strikes me as a guy who jumps around a lot. Maybe 4-5 years in any 1 place is just his m.o.
