Well it is really the Vance Walberg offense, but it sounds more cool when you call it the "Pepperdine offense" and it juxtaposes nicely with the "Princeton offense". It also brings out the east-coast/west-coast difference of styles. And the pans on (Pepperdine) Waves and Waves of offense. No doubt this will also bring up discussions about the high-scoring LMU teams of the past.
As you may recall Walberg was a JC coach at the time John Calipari consulted with him and implemented his offense last season. I am being mean here but I am tempted to say "despite Darius Washington and dad trying to mess things up" :-)
Gary Parrish of CBS Sportsline has a story on this. Parrish's story has extensive details on how Calipari was won over... This is a great story. A must read for all serious basketball fans!!!!!
ESPN will have a few Big West games, but if you have access to the regional FSNs or Fox College Sports (FCS) you will get to see quite a few Pepperdine games on TV next year.
