San Diego and Portland just got through firing off warning flares to the rest of the WCC.
We knew Grier's squad would be good but I feel they really showed us how good by nearly knocking off UNLV, a top MWC team, on a hostile court. But what makes this particularly scary is, sans Pomare, Tru Johnson and others, they came up only 5 points short. They win this game with their whole team.
And Portland led UW almost all the way in Chiles. Only 2700+ attended, so imagine a packed house for the Zags, Gaels, etc. The Pilots are for real. While it means a tougher road for the Zags, it's also beneficial for the Zags to have the Pilots be a legit threat. No longer can they be overlooked. Teams will have to be just as ready for them as they are for us. Any letdowns and UP will take advantage. And that'll help GU.
Have a great Sunday.
