Jalen is alright. He is still a freshman getting better and better. I love seeing Few taking him aside and Jalen taking the coaching. Earlier he was a revelation, but now there is more film on him,...

Jalen is alright. He is still a freshman getting better and better. I love seeing Few taking him aside and Jalen taking the coaching. Earlier he was a revelation, but now there is more film on him,...
I am not sure how he does it but Coach Few is the best coach on teaching passing. His teams are all marked by great passers. You can see even the progress of some of the younger guys. Julian...
I have register a complaint about whole premise of thread. A known tactic is the set up. Give a young child a cup filled to brim and then get angry when it is spilled. Both Goodwin and Joel are...
The thing is with Iowa's Defense, it is built to hide Garza. The zone is so the quicker players don't take him off the bounce. Without it he would foul out. Garza is great offense weapon, but a major...
What Ballo needs is two things: experience and confidence. The West Virginia game showed a lot of potential and he needs more time on the court.
The key will be not to be over concern with Garza. Take away the perimeter be on attack mode the whole game. GU guards too much for the 76 best D to stop. Garza with a monster numbers game, but Zags...

The scheme that Coach Few drew up was brilliant and a gamble. He had multiple guys on Ford: Gilder, Woolridge, and Joel. The point of the defense was after the initial ball screen there was a switch...
Any of those teams would see playing GU in Spokane (yes in SPOKANE) as a daunting task to say the least. None of them would think of it as an ideal situation to pull a huge upset. Most likely it...
Baylor leapfrogging Gonzaga in the beauty contest that is the AP poll has three components
Major injustice.
Not surprising
A good thing.
First on the injustice. Gonzaga went out and blew out...
I was truly sad to hear the news. Bob was a great guy and a very talented award-winning screenplay writer that was working on some great projects. Not only was he a great Zag fan but I work with him...
Jay Blias had right about GU D. They are not communicating at a high level on D yet. That will change as Few works with them. They are going to get better and better as they learn to play together....
It is always good to ask the why question. Dakich is a OSU homer and most experts thought that OSU was going to be number 1 before the Minnesota game. They went out and promptly laid an egg against a...
Something that is being missed that it is big for the evolution of the program for this draft. If Zach gets drafted that would be at least three and possibly four players drafted. That is BIG for the...
Definitely tongue in cheek. He said first he would like to see Lloyd and Few retire and then after the overrate comment (with a smile on his face) he said that the Zags accomplished extraordinary...
John was an elite athlete. He was always one of quickest PG in the league.

Did you know only UTEP is the only school from Texas to ever win the National Championship in Men's Basketball?
I did not respond to the article as pessimistic at all. " the Zags have thrived through change and challenge." and "Don’t be booking any Final Four flights yet." (My emphasis) He is saying maybe they...
What scares me most about the Red Raiders is their active hand and how they play the gaps, mucking up the passing lanes. If GU is going to win, they will have to be strong with the ball. Texas Tech...
There is an old Basketball Proverb: Great Offense beats Great Defense.
I think that continues and GUI moves on with a 72-59 game.
I think the key to the game is the same key to last years game. Whoever can establish the perimeter will win. Remember last year GU was leading late in the first half until FSU hit three 3s in a row....
Huh? Every coach will talks up their opponents to keep their own team sharp. My guess is that Few and staff really don't pay attention to Bracket matrix and bracketology, they would have no need to...
FSU runs a lot of guys and that is both an advantage and a disadvantage. They always have a fresh team in, but it can mess with the flow of their players. I believe that is why they shoot at such a...
Heck no!
Adam Morrison gave the right mentality for this team: "Go out there with your brothers and take what you deserve!" (I added the exclamation point.)
Zion is Duke's hired hand making...
I think looking for a favorite player would distract me from the real beauty of this team.
They all make each other better.
When Snacks took three during the decisive run against the Waves,...
