DZ's 9th Annual One BOLD Prediction Thread

[IowaSERE]

Suggs will not be the top scoring Freshman this year.

[Bulldoginseattle]

Arlauskus earns meaningful minutes and is mvp of at least one game this year.

[bigblahla]

Watson has the most double doubles for the Zags over the season.

Go Zags!!!

[gonzagafan62]

I’ll come out of hiding for this post.

Gonzaga wins the national championship by double digits. How do you like that

[jazzdelmar]

Zags beat Nova and Dook on way to NC. That’s unimaginable, but.

[billyberu]

Gonzaga will be a top 5 defensive team as determined by advanced metrics.

Watson is WCC Player of the year.

[hockeyzag]

Watson is WCC Player of the year.

Watson will definitely be WCC POY at some point.

[OntZags]

Watson will definitely be WCC POY at some point.

I'm not sure how many 'some points' we're gonna get with Watson. I think it's time to probably to start ripping the band aid off now and realize he's likely gone after this season.

Which brings me to my bold prediction:

Watson is the highest NBA drafted Zag in 2021.

[OCzag]

Bold you say?

Undefeated season

All in on this one

[MDABE80]

Biggest Ever, and we can do this: Zags run the entire table and win the National Championship fist time since 1976. But do not get full credit because of a COVID shortened season !

[ZagRecruitWatch]

Not really a bold prediction: Chet Holmgren will commit to GU as the top player in the nation. Bold prediction: Chet's commitment will bring in slew of top talent most notably Hunter Sallis who is leaning blue blood bound right now.

[MDABE80]

Good prediction Zag Recruit!

I LOVE THAT !!

[Reborn]

I'm going all-out on Joel Ayayi. He will be WCC player of the year and first team All American, and will get drafted in the first round. Here's to a great season.

Go Zags!!!

What is very cool is that this year this thread is much more in the spirit it was always intended. Because we made the "No National Champ Rule" (As No. 1 going into year), more predictions have been about individual players and how they'll do - which I always found more interesting than records and all that.

I love hearing how people believe each player will do. I had forgotten Watson might takeover college basketball.

Nine years ago, my first BOLD prediction was that - as a sophomore, Gary Bell Jr. would lead the team in scoring, I was wrong, that was the year he couldn't hit a shot. But still, it was bold and that was the year - when he couldn't shoot - that he became the lockdown off the ball defender, best we've ever had.

Ballo Breaks a Backboard.

[willandi]

I predict...There will be March Madness this season, even if it happens in April or May.

[FloridaZagFan]

Arlo puts Matt Haarms on a poster!
After receiving a half cout aly-oop pass from Suggs, Arlo throws one down over Haarms at 7"4 to give Zags 50-32 lead at the half in Provo.

I like this very much. thanks. I can just see it, and hopefully on that day we WILL see it happens. Good one FloridaZagfan.

[nonzagzag]

Ballo does not shatter a backboard...

[DZ]

Would saying that the Zags are so dominant as number one team (and I suspect they'll be no. 1 all year), they get 5 WCC all-conf, especially with WCC being "10" First team?

I already made my bold prediction, a frosh would be POY in conf (and Ballo counts as Frosh), but just interested in knowing if it's possible.

I know BYU will be better than normal, very good even.

[Zagceo]

How bout Zags NOT making the dance for BOLD?
