    There's Wooden Award soo ...

    Maybe there'll be time when WCC will make 'Just a Few Awards' for best players in their respective positions? ;-)

    It'd be neat to get a "Few"

    Congrats Few and Nigel on the awards! 32-1. Wow!

    Congrats, Coach Few!

    Strangely, USA Today can't seem to decide if the Zags are all that great.

    "Strangely, USA Today can't seem to decide if the Zags are all that great."

    With all the different predictions floating around, someone has to be wrong, it so happens that's it's USA Today.

    He should have won it a long time ago. I actually think his best coaching was last year when the team was on the ropes, in risk of not making it into post season, then surpassing all expectations once they got there.

    Congrats to the staff.

    We should keep a running list... because don't think these will be the last.

    Default USBWA - Mark Few Henry Iba Award winner as National Coach of the Year

    Link.

    Few, in his 18th season as head coach at Gonzaga, has led the Bulldogs to the NCAA Tournament every year and to the Sweet 16 six times. He is two wins shy of 500 career victories with an overall record of 498-112.

    "This is a great honor, because it is from the people who cover college basketball day in and day out, so they understand what it takes to have a year like this," Few said. "We have great players and a great staff. I'm appreciative and humbled by this honor."

    Few will be formally presented with the Henry Iba Award at the USBWA’s annual honors luncheon at the Final Four in Phoenix on Monday, April 3. He is the first coach from the West Coast Conference to be selected as national coach of the year by the USBWA.
