USC’s Andy Enfield: ‘There’s an East Coast bias’

LAS VEGAS — Moments after USC opened the Pac-12 Tournament with a win over Washington, Coach Andy Enfield let off a little steam.

“I think there’s an East Coast bias in the media,” Enfield began.

A reporter’s question struck a chord, when it was pointed out that the Trojans’ first-round game against the Huskies had tipped off after 8:30 p.m., near midnight along the East Coast.

Could it damage Pac-12 teams’ prospects for making the NCAA Tournament, as well as their seeding? Were any viewers even awake?

Faced with the premise, Enfield smiled and nodded along.
