0:15.5	Myron Medcalfe, when you think of Los Angeles, you think of the spotlight, you think of being
0:20.2	on stage. And some stages have been there for generations. But there might be a new one
0:26.0	in town. Where will that spotlight shine come fall of 2023?
0:30.6	I think that's about that's going to be on Friday, James and USC men's basketball.
