Taylor King is not finished with basketball after all. He is finished with Villanova.

King is transferring to USC, his third school in 4 years. It was announced earlier that King, who played last season for the Wildcats, would stay at 'Nova to graduate, but would no longer be on the team, giving up basketball.

Now, after playing a season at Duke, sitting out a season at Villanova and playing a season there, he will have to sit out the upcoming season at USC - before playing the 2011-12 season and using his final season of eligibility.

"He's going," Villanova coach Jay Wright confirmed in a text. "All good." *
