Last year

Hogs shine after lineup shakeup

• Musselman had planned on shuffling the starting lineup after two losses and the Isaiah Joe injury forced another change.

• Jalen Harris, who started every game last season, got his first start of the year versus TCU. He dished out a season-high six assists. He was inserted into the lineup to speed up the game, pickup up the TCU guards 3/4 court and his skill in transition.

• Desi Sills came off the bench for the first time this season. He scored 18 points —two shy of his career high — on 7-of-8 shooting from the field and making all three 3-pointers.

• Reggie Chaney got his first start of the season — and third of his career. While he did not have a great first half, he scored six straight for the Hogs early in the second half to make it a 3-point game into a 9-point game.
