    Joel Ayayi impressed

    For the latter, we turn to Joel Ayayi, all of 20 years old and something of a Gonzaga graybeard as he goes through his fourth preseason in a Zag uniform. He knows what to expect at practice, the grind of a five-month season and the soaring expectations that accompany each GU squad.

    Seems like the team will gel early with an abundance of talent.

    Thanks for sharing this. I'm a big fan of Joel....he's going to have a monster year. Joel always seems to have his mind in the game and doing the little things that win games.

      Appreciate the Post

      Great interview. Exciting update.

      Assuming Joel's quoted responses are written verbatim, I'm awed by not just Joel's savvy (for the game and for building a team), but also for his commanding communicative skills. For crying out loud, English is (at best) his SECOND LANGUAGE. He speaks better English than most of the native born (i.e. English speaking) professionals I encountered during my working days. Wow.

        As we all want the most skilled recruits, its such a joy to watch players mature and grow as they develop over a few years at Gonzaga. Joel is a perfect example.

        It takes mature juniors and seniors mixed with the highly skilled young players to win a National Championship. The team assembled this season has that mix. With a little luck they could make it happen.
