Locked On Zags - Daily Podcast On Gonzaga Bulldogs Basketball

Gonzaga Bulldogs freshman guard Dusty Stromer began the season as a starter after Steele Venters went down with a knee injury, but by midseason Mark Few had replaced him with Ben Gregg. Still, Dusty had plenty of success in his first year with the Zags, emerging as a reliable perimeter defender and three point shooter.With Michael Ajayi, Khalif Battle, and a healthy Venters all in the mix, will Stromer have a similar role as a sophomore, or could his playing time decrease? What can Stromer do to make himself more valuable to this team and force Few to play him on a regular basis?We close out the show discussing Stromer's future beyond next season, and why he could be the team's starting small forward as a junior and a potential college basketball breakout star. Plus, with his height, length, defense, and three point shooting ability, he could be a valuable NBA role player if he gets a little stronger developmentally.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are reportedly in contact with transfer guard Braeden Smith - not the Purdue star but rather a high level distributor from Colgate. Smith played high school ball at Seattle Prep and was a candidate for National Freshman of the Year in 2023 and won Patriot League Player of the Year in 2024, and with two years of eligibility remaining he could step into a starting role for the Zags as a senior once Ryan Nembhard, Nolan Hickman, and Khalif Battle run out of eligibility.Lisa Fortier and the Zag women's team added a big time transfer in point guard Tayla Dalton, who started 82 games over the past four years with the Saint Mary's Gaels. Dalton is from New Zealand and will pair nicely with incoming freshman Lauren Whittaker and new UConn transfer Ines Bettencourt.We close the show discussing Chet Holmgren finishing second in NBA Rookie of the Year voting to Victor Wembanyama, Jalen Suggs and Orlando getting eliminated from the playoffs, and Andrew Nembhard's remarkable 32:5 A:TO ratio during the playoffs.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Khalif Battle picked Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs over Kansas State and Villanova, but will the former Arkansas guard be willing to come off the bench? And is that the right role for the high scoring 6'5 star?What else do the Zags need to do to be a national championship caliber team? Consistent outside shooting and low post defense are the big keys - can they do that with the personnel they have?We close the show discussing Anton Watson getting invited to the NBA G-League combine - not the draft combine - and whether that was a snub or not.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs secured a commitment Arkansas guard Khalif Battle this weekend, who picked the Zags over Villanova and Kansas State. Battle averaged 29.6 points over his final seven games with the Hogs, and his experience coming off the bench makes him a perfect third guard for this program.Battle will likely play a lot of minutes alongside Nolan Hickman and Ryan Nembhard, shifting Michael Ajayi into a small ball four role and hurting the minutes for Steele Venters and Dusty Stromer. Still, this nine-man rotation is as good as any in college basketball as this team looks to get over the hump and win a national title.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Gonzaga Bulldogs forward Ben Gregg was inserted into the starting lineup by Mark Few and blossomed into a key piece for the Zags as they ultimately went to a ninth straight Sweet 16 last season. Gregg's development has been a big part of Gonzaga's success the past few seasons, and he'll once again fill a valuable role for the Bulldogs as the starting power forward next year alongside Graham Ike and Michael Ajayi.What does Gregg need to do to get attention from NBA scouts? Can he shoot 65% on two pointers, 40% from three, and display solid defense? If so, he could get looks the way Killian Tillie did, although Gregg has a much cleaner bill of health.We close out the show discussing Andrew Nembhard leading the Indiana Pacers past the Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA Playoffs and the Zag Baseball team needing to right the ship this weekend in Stockton against Pacific.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

The Gonzaga Bulldogs will host Arkansas guard Khalif Battle on a visit this weekend, with Mark Few hoping to land the high-scoring veteran guard in his final season of college basketball eligibility. Battle averaged 29.6 points over his final seven games with the Hogs, and he'd be a perfect third guard off the bench for this program.The transfer portal is now closed and Gonzaga kept the majority of their core around, and a team photo posted right at the deadline showed this team's camaraderie and togetherness, a rarity in the modern era. What is left for this team over the offseason? Michael Ajayi is in the NBA draft process, but otherwise it's just filling a few scholarship spots.We close out the show discussing Chet Holgmren and Julian Strawther each advancing to the conference semifinals of the NBA playoffs, while Rui Hachimura and the Lakers are eliminated and Jalen Suggs and Andrew Nembhard face 3-2 deficits for Orlando and Indiana, respectively.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Luka Krajnovic reportedly entered the NCAA transfer portal one day before it closes, leaving Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs without a backup point guard and with another open scholarship. Krajnovic showed promise down the stretch last season, and could opt to return to Croatia and play professionally or find another school to continue his education and likely land a bigger role on the court.Losing Krajnovic makes adding another guard even more important for the Zags, and we discuss five young guard options the team could pursue - including incoming freshmen Nolan Traore and Trent Perry and transfers Wesley Yates, Emmanuel Innocenti, and Rowan Brumbaugh.We close out the show discussing other outside the box transfer options for the Zags, including Tyler Harris and Juanse Gorosito from Portland, Roger McFarlane from SE Louisiana, Kasean Pryor from South Florida, and even Bronny James.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs will face Danny Hurley and the back-to-back national champion UConn Huskies at Madison Square Garden in December - and they will have a familiar face in the backcourt in former Saint Mary's guard Aidan Mahaney. Mahaney committed to UConn over Creighton, Virginia, and Kentucky, but we wonder if a new offense will allow Mahaney to thrive or if it will be a challenge for the rising junior.We also discuss Lisa Fortier and the Zag women adding a new player in UConn transfer Ines Bettencourt, a 5'7 guard from Portugal who played very sparingly for the Huskies the past two seasons. However, the Zags have a bunch of holes to fill in the backcourt, and Bettencourt could be a sneaky breakout star. Plus, Calli Stokes explains her decision to enter the transfer portal, citing a concussion which has led her to the decision to end her basketball playing career.We close out the show discussing Andrew Nembhard's prolific performance so far for the Indiana Pacers in the NBA Playoffs.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are in the hunt to complete their roster ahead of the 2024-25 college basketball season, and are looking at quite a few young guards either in the transfer portal or on the recruiting trail. We discuss the five top options, including Nolan Traore, Travis Perry, Wesley Yates, Rowan Brumbaugh and Emmanuel Innocenti.Today is also Mailbag Monday and we discuss if Gonzaga and Washington will continue their series with Danny Sprinkle taking over for the Huskies, which WCC team might be a surprise contender alongside the Zags, which teams from each Power Conference I'd like to see Gonzaga schedule a home-and-home with, and comparing Chet Holmgren to incoming Duke freshman Cooper Flagg.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs have reportedly reached out to Tarleton State transfer Emmanuel Innocenti, a 6'5 wing from Italy who averaged 6.6 points, 6.4 boards, 2.9 assists, and 1.7 steals last year in the WAC. With three years of college basketball eligibility remaining, could Innocenti be a developmental guard for the Zags?Gonzaga lost their first scholarship player to the transfer portal in Pavle Stosic, the Serbian big man who played 46 total minutes after joining the team in late-September last offseason. Stosic was unlikely to see much playing time as a sophomore, and opts instead to find somewhere where he can develop on the court.We close the show discussing the four Zags in the NBA Playoffs, three who had 20 point games last week in Andrew Nembhard, Chet Holmgren, and Jalen Suggs, and one who is struggling in Rui Hachimura.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Gonzaga Bulldogs guard Nolan Hickman broke out as a junior this past college basketball season, averaging a career-high 14 points per game while shooting over 40% from three. He adjusted seamlessly to a shooting guard role, making room for Ryan Nembhard to step in and lead Mark Few's offense.Hickman's ability to play alongside Nembhard helped Gonzaga on both ends of the floor, and he scored in double figures 28 times in what was a hugely critical and largely underappreciated junior year for the Seattle native.Hickman will finally keep the same role for a second straight year heading into his senior season, what could his final year as a Zag entail? And will he get looks in the 2025 NBA draft?Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs offered a preferred walk-on spot on the roster to North Kitsap guard Cade Orness. Orness is a 6'5 guard and the all-time leading scorer at North Kitsap, and he helped take down Anacortes and 2025 Gonzaga target Davis Fogle in the 2A State Playoffs. Could Orness develop into a legit contributor for Few and the Zags?Gonzaga president Thayne McCulloh will retire at the end of the 2024-25 academic year, a tough blow for Gonzaga and a move that could have ramifications on the program's hunt to join a new conference once realignment conversations pick up this summer. Could a new president veto the Big 12 as an option for the university? Will the Big East become the preferred landing spot?We also discuss Joshua Jefferson landing at Iowa State after two years at Saint Mary's and why it's a great fit for Randy Bennett's former power forward, as well as rumored destinations for Aidan Mahaney which include Creighton and UConn. Plus, San Diego star Kevin Patton has entered the transfer portal, meaning Steve Lavin's three best players from last year are out the door.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Locked On Zags podcast is the daily podcast that keeps you ahead of the games and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the Gonzaga Bulldogs.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs made an offer to 2025 guard Davis Fogle, the top ranked player in the state of Washington. Fogle grew two inches since we last discussed him, standing at 6'7 before he heads to Compass Prep in Arizona to finish his high school career. Will he ultimately return to Spokane to play for the Zags?Speaking of Mark Few, he will be an assistant coach for Team USA in the Paris Olympic Games this summer, coaching a roster littered with basketball superstars including LeBron James, Steph Curry, Anthony Davis, and more. What does it mean for Few and Gonzaga to have him on the sideline for Team USA?We also discuss Calli Stokes entering the transfer portal and leaving the Zag WBB program, Saint Mary's and Portland making transfer portal additions, and a remarkable offseason so far for Stan Johnson and LMU after they landed a fourth big time transfer - this one being former Pepperdine big man Jevon Porter.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs made an offer to 2026 center Sam Funches, the top ranked big man in his class and a top 10 prospect overall according to 247Sports. The Missouri native is 6'10 with a huge wingspan and outside shooting touch, making him a highly coveted prospect already. Can Few and the Zags bring him to Spokane?Today is also Mailbag Monday and we discuss whether the Bulldogs will play a nine man rotation in 2024-25, compare this team to the two previous teams that went to the national championship in 2017 and 2021, and discuss whether Washington State will make the WCC a three bid league and the professional career hopes for Brynna Maxwell and Kaylynne Truong after they were picked in the WNBA draft.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Gonzaga Bulldogs guard Luka Krajnovic appeared in 16 games as a freshman, missing about six weeks with a hand injury and ultimately never quite cracking Mark Few's rotation behind talented guards Ryan Nembhard and Nolan Hickman. Still, the Croatian guard showed flashes of why he could be a big piece for the Zags down the line.Will we see Krajnovic hold down a bigger role in 2024-25? Or will we have to wait until Nembhard and Hickman are gone? And if so, will Krajnovic be patient enough to do so?Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Gonzaga Bulldogs guard Brynna Maxwell joins the show to discuss getting selected 13th overall in the 2024 WNBA draft by the Chicago Sky, as well as her final season in Spokane, the dominance of Lisa Fortier's team, beating Utah to advance to the Sweet 16, and what it means to get drafted alongside teammate Kaylynne Truong who went eight picks later to the Washington Mystics.We close out the show discussing Aidan Mahaney entering the transfer portal out of Saint Mary's - a shocking development for Randy Bennett's team and a significant sign of concern for the Gaels of Moraga.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs offered 2024 French guard prospect Nolan Traore, and he recently dominated at the Nike Hoops Summit in Portland. Traore is playing professionally in France, and the 17-year-old may not even come to play college basketball at all, but if he does he would be a perfect fit as a pick and roll guard in Gonzaga's system.A pair of Gonzaga women's players were selected in the 2024 WNBA draft in Brynna Maxwell and Kaylynne Truong who went to the Chicago Sky and Washington Mystic, respectively. Having two Zags picked is a huge sign of the respect coach Lisa Fortier's team commands, especially when considering the team's best player, Yvonne Ejim, is coming back for another year.We close out the show discussing Oumar Ballo who found a new home at Indiana and a pair of transfer portal additions at other WCC programs: Jan Vide going from UCLA to LMU and Carlos Stewart returning to Santa Clara after one injury riddle season at LSU.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!ManscapedGet 20% Off and Free Shipping with the code LOCKEDON at Manscaped.com.Bettor TogetherDownload the Bettor Together DFS app now from the app store, and sign-up using promocode LOCKEDON for a chance to win your share of over $1,000 in cash prizes.Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are once again involved in the recruitment of 2024 guard and McDonald's All-American Trent Perry, who decommitted from USC after coach Andy Enfield left for the job at SMU. The Zags will have plenty of competition for Perry, but if he's willing to spend a year learning from Ryan Nembhard he could have a huge breakout sophomore season in Spokane.We also discuss how the 10 Zags in the NBA did as the regular season comes to a close. Domantas Sabonis and Chet Holmgren each played in all 82 games, with Sabonis recording 77 double-doubles and Holmgren posting some of the most elite efficiency numbers in league history. Four other Zags are on playoff teams as well in Jalen Suggs, Andrew Nembhard, Rui Hachimura, and Julian Strawther.We close out the show discussing the four other NBA Zags who did not make the playoffs: Kelly Olynyk who is at home in Toronto, Corey Kispert's dominance down the stretch for Washington, Zach Collins playing alongside Victor Wembanyama, and Brandon Clarke returning from injury for six games with Memphis.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!ManscapedGet 20% Off and Free Shipping with the code LOCKEDON at Manscaped.com.Bettor TogetherDownload the Bettor Together DFS app now from the app store, and sign-up using promocode LOCKEDON for a chance to win your share of over $1,000 in cash prizes.Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs have four games remaining in a six-game scheduling series against the Kentucky Wildcats, who are now coached by former BYU head man Mark Pope. Will Pope and Few continue the series, which is set to resume in Seattle this season? Staying on the college basketball coaching carousel, Eastern Washington hired former Gonzaga, Minnesota, and Long Beach State head coach Dan Monson, bringing him back to the inland northwest where it all began 25 years ago.Finally, we close out the show discussing Gonzaga's non-conference schedule, whether anyone on this team is a future NBA player, what steps need to be taken defensively for this program, and the Zag baseball team's seven game winning streak.Join the Locked On Zags Discord: https://discord.gg/qxWcjC39sSFANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states.

Jun Seok Yeo's first season with the Gonzaga Bulldogs was quiet, as the South Korean forward didn't earn a spot in Mark Few's rotation and averaged less than seven minutes per game for the Zags in Spokane. However, his best and worst case scenarios for this season were always going to be determined behind the scenes, and how he comes out in 2024-25 will help determine if he spent this season growing and developing his game.Of course, Yeo will have to stick around this offseason - and that might not happen when considering the likelihood he is not in the rotation again next season with basically the entire team returning and Michael Ajayi expected to take minutes at the three and the four. Will Yeo enter the transfer portal or go play professionally overseas? Or will he come back and continue to grow in Gonzaga's system?FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states.

The Gonzaga Bulldogs pursued 2023 top 50 prospect Wesley Yates III out of high school before he committed to Washington. Now, after sitting the entire year with a foot injury, Yates has entered the NCAA transfer portal and he might be the perfect developmental guard piece for Mark Few's team.We also discuss the latest updates on the Kentucky basketball head coach search, which includes Baylor's Scott Drew, UConn's Danny Hurley, and former Florida coach Billy Donovan who is now with the Chicago Bulls. Is Drew going to leave the Bears for the Wildcats, and if so will Gonzaga's four game series with Kentucky still go on? And could John Calipari and Few connect on a similar series now that Cal is at Arkansas?We close out the show discussing Saint Mary's losing coach Justin Joyner to Michigan, San Francisco losing Mike Sharavjamts to the transfer portal, and Portland making a big portal addition.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!ManscapedGet 20% Off and Free Shipping with the code LOCKEDON at Manscaped.com.Bettor TogetherDownload the Bettor Together DFS app now from the app store, and sign-up using promocode LOCKEDON for a chance to win your share of over $1,000 in cash prizes.Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Anton Watson represented the Gonzaga Bulldogs as a near perfect Zag: A Spokane kid who stayed the course, battled adversity in the form of injuries, and who ultimately stepped up for Mark Few's team when they needed him most by having a career season in his final year of college basketball eligibility.We also discuss Watson's best and worst case scenarios coming into the season and how he performed, including his improved efficiency and output from the three point line, his All WCC First Team nod, and his two 32 point performances and near triple-double in the NCAA Tournament.Finally, we close out the show discussing Watson's NBA future - could he get drafted in the second round this year? Will he get invited to the combine? What does he need to prove in order to get a spot in the league next season?FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states. First online real money wager only.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are reportedly in contact with Georgetown guard Rowan Brumbaugh after he entered the NCAA transfer portal. Brumbaugh is a 6'4 combo guard who shot 37% from three last year and who had previously spent a year at Texas redshirting before joining the Hoyas. The Zags don't have a bunch of playing time to go around, but Brumbaugh could be a valuable bench piece before stepping into a starting role in 2025-26 once Ryan Nembhard and Nolan Hickman graduate.Coach John Calipari is leaving the Kentucky Wildcats to take over for Eric Musselman at Arkansas, a shocking development that has ripple effects throughout college basketball, including potentially impacting Gonzaga's six-year series with the Wildcats. Could Scott Drew, Nate Oats, Mark Pope, or even Tommy Lloyd take over for Big Blue Nation?Finally, we close out the show discussing Oumar Ballo hitting the transfer portal out of Arizona and what it means for the Wildcats, and why he's not a fit to return to Spokane for his final season of eligibility.FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are set up to be a top five team in the preseason AP poll ahead of the 2024-25 college basketball season. They have a ton of roster continuity with everyone set to return outside of Anton Watson, they are adding a key transfer portal addition in Michael Ajayi and will get sharpshooter Steele Venters into the mix as well. Plus, voters tend to overvalue continuity when doing the first preseason poll.Washington State hired Eastern Washington head coach David Riley to replace Kyle Smith, could it cause Venters to consider transferring so he can play with his former coach in Pullman? Pepperdine also made a hire, bringing former John Calipari assistant coach Ed Schilling over from Grand Canyon to replace Lorenzo Romar.We close out the show discussing Yvonne Ejim winning the Player of the Year and Lisa Fortier winning Coach of the Year at the mid-major level, the importance of both returning next season, and Kaylynne Truong and Brynna Maxwell each participating in a three-point shooting contest on Thursday night on ESPN.FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs reportedly reached out to former Kentucky Wildcat Adou Thiero, a rising junior wing who entered the NCAA transfer portal. Thiero had 15 against the Zags earlier this year, and his extreme athleticism and defensive skills would be most welcome in Spokane - but is there enough playing time available for his liking? That is the question we will be asking about any potential portal targets this offseason.2024 four-star guard prospect Trent Perry decommitted from USC, and the former Zag target was already contacted again by the Bulldogs. Could he be Gonzaga's first (and only) freshman in the 2024 class? He'd provide competition with Luka Krajnovic for third guard minutes, and could start as a sophomore once Ryan Nembhard and Nolan Hickman graduate.Finally, we close out the show answering some mailbag questions, discussing Michael Ajayi's defense, Gonzaga's rim protection, and how Washington State and Saint Mary's might look next season.FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are transitioning into the college basketball offseason, what are the key storylines for this program after another Sweet 16 run in the NCAA Tournament? Will this team lose any players  to the NCAA transfer portal, and will they make any additions following the signing of Pepperdine transfer Michael Ajayi?We also discuss conference realignment, whether Brett Yormark will keep trying to add Gonzaga to the Big 12 or if the Big East could come calling while they are in the midst of new media rights negotiations, and the impending additions of Washington State and Oregon State to the WCC.Finally, we close out the show discussing Gonzaga's 2025 recruiting targets, including Isiah Harwell and Jalen Haralson, and which top high school prospects will end up committing to Spokane and the Zags this summer.FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs fell to No. 1 seed Purdue in the Sweet 16, ending their remarkable season and the career of Spokane legend Anton Watson. Despite the loss, this season was a wild success in the second half, and this team has an incredibly bright future with every major player outside Watson expected to return - as well as the return of Steele Venters from an injury and the addition of Pepperdine transfer Michael Ajayi.Finally, we close out the show discussing Lisa Fortier and the women's basketball program, who lost to No. 1 seed Texas in the Sweet 16 and who will lose key contributors Kayleigh and Kaylynne Truong and Brynna Maxwell, but who will get Yvonne Ejim back for a fifth year.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs will have their hands full against Matt Painter, Zach Edey, and the Purdue Boilermakers on Friday in Detroit as both programs look to advance to the Elite 8 of the 2024 NCAA Tournament. But if Graham Ike can avoid foul trouble, Ryan Nembhard can run that short pick and roll which was lethal against Kentucky and Kansas, and the Zags can shoot better than 6-32 from three, this team could take down a top seed and advance to the Elite Eight for the second year in a row.Joshua Jefferson is one of 32(!) WCC players already in the NCAA transfer portal, and his departure from Randy Bennett and the Gaels of Saint Mary's is an incredibly tough loss. He joins Jevon Porter, Juanse Gorosito, Mo Odum, and many others as crucial departures from the conference.Finally, we close out the show discussing the coaching carousel, including Pacific's hiring of Dave Smart, Kyle Smith leaving Washington State to go to Stanford and who might replace him in Pullman, and John Jakus - a former Zag staff member - taking over as head coach at Florida Atlantic to replace Dusty May.FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are much improved from when they last played the Purdue Boilermakers in the Maui Invitational in November, but Matt Painter's team is improved as well - and it all starts with the big man in the middle in Zach Edey. Edey has improved on his National Player of the Year campaign from 2022-23, although a big part of that has been the growth of guards Braden Smith and Fletcher Loyer who each improved their three point shooting percentage dramatically this season.We also preview a potential Elite Eight matchup with either Creighton or Tennessee, who will square off after Gonzaga and Purdue wraps on Friday. Will Creighton find a way to slow down All-American Dalton Knecht? How will Ryan Kalkbrenner impact the game on the block?Finally, we close out the show discussing the addition of Michael Ajayi and how it might impact Steele Venters and Dusty Stromer, and whether it could lead to either of them transferring out.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!ManscapedGet 20% Off and Free Shipping with the code LOCKEDON at Manscaped.com.Bettor TogetherDownload the Bettor Together DFS app now from the app store, and sign-up using promocode LOCKEDON for a chance to win your share of over $1,000 in cash prizes. Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs already added a player via the NCAA transfer portal to next year's roster in former Pepperdine guard Michael Ajayi. Ajayi averaged 17 points and 10 rebounds last year for Lorenzo Romar's team, and the Washington native will likely slot right in to a role on the wing for the Zags. What does his addition mean for Steele Venters and Dusty Stromer, and how much more action will we see in the transfer portal this offseason?2025 top 10 prospect Jalen Haralson listed the Zags in his top 10, could the Indiana native pass up on going to Purdue or Auburn or Notre Dame and instead come to Spokane? We discuss that and the women's basketball team who are back in the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2015, and have a date with the No. 1 seed Texas Longhorns in Portland on Friday.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!ManscapedGet 20% Off and Free Shipping with the code LOCKEDON at Manscaped.com.Bettor TogetherDownload the Bettor Together DFS app now from the app store, and sign-up using promocode LOCKEDON for a chance to win your share of over $1,000 in cash prizes. Amazon Fire TVFire TV recently created Fire TV Channels to deliver a constant supply of the latest videos from your favorite sports brands, all for free.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs didn't even look like an NCAA Tournament team for part of the college basketball season, but now they are not only in the Sweet 16 but they have a real chance to stun the world and win a national championship. We discuss reasons why they can win it all (Ryan Nembhard's recent play and Graham Ike's dominance) and what might trip them up (foul trouble and three point shooting).We also rank the other 15 remaining teams in the NCAA Tournament, discuss Nolan Hickman's really strong play over the last month and how crucial that is for the Zags, and discuss if the WCC will ever extend an invite to Grand Canyon and whether San Francisco coach Chris Gerlufsen will get another job offer this offseason.Join the Locked On Zags Discord: https://discord.gg/G6EJg5bMMFSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament for the ninth straight season, tying Duke for the all-time record and doing so by defeating Bill Self, Hunter Dickinson and the Kansas Jayhawks by 21 points. The Zags were down one to Kansas at halftime, but thanks to a dominant performance from Anton Watson, Ben Gregg, and Nolan Hickman, GU cruised to an easy victory to keep the streak alive.Gonzaga is quite clearly peaking at the right time this season, is it enough for them to do the unbelievable and make a run to the national championship? They'll first have to get past Zach Edey and Purdue, who crushed Utah State to move to the Sweet 16. Edey is playing elite basketball right now, but the Zags look a lot different than the team that played them in Maui back in November.We close out the show discussing Lisa Fortier and the Zag women's team, who cruised to an easy win over UC-Irvine in Spokane to set up a showdown with five seed Utah, the former home of Gonzaga starter Brynna Maxwell and a top team in the Pac-12.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs will take on Bill Self and the Kansas Jayhawks, who snuck by 13 seeded Samford thanks in part to a controversial foul call which put Nick Timberlake on the free throw line in the closing seconds. Kansas is without star wing Kevin McCullar, how will that impact the matchup against the Zags?Andy and Derek discuss the key matchups, including Hunter Dickinson vs. Graham Ike on the block, Ryan Nembhard and Dajuan Harris at point guard, and two seldom used benches. How will Gonzaga deploy Anton Watson in this one? Can Johnny Furphy stay hot after a strong game on Thursday? Will elevation play a role?We close out the show discussing how important getting back to the Sweet 16 is for both programs, a potential matchup against No. 1 seed Purdue, and make predictions for the winner of this one on Saturday.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs were a trendy 12-5 upset pick against McNeese State - but a hot shooting start allowed the Zags to coast to an easy 86-65 victory. The Zags were 8-11 from deep in the first half, Anton Watson finished one assist short of a triple double, and Graham Ike was perfect from the field in the rout.If Gonzaga can continue to play like this, is their ceiling a run to the Final 4? Or a national championship? And how critical was the play of reserves Dusty Stromer (10 points) and Luka Krajnovic, who Few trusted enough to play early in the first half?We close out the show discussing other results from the NCAA Tournament on Thursday, including Tommy Lloyd and Arizona defeating Dan Monson and Long Beach State in a 2-15 matchup, BYU losing to Duquesne, and Kentucky once again losing to a double-digit seed and what it could mean for John Calipari's job.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are getting discussed as a potential upset waiting to happen as a five seed taking on a mid-major darling in 12 seeded McNeese State - what do they need to do to avoid falling victim to a classic NCAA Tournament upset? It starts with feeding Graham Ike the ball on the block, and includes Ryan Nembhard continuing to take excellent care of the basketball and the Zags making the Cowboys play at their pace.We also discuss the other big games taking place on Thursday in March Madness, including former Zag coaches Tommy Lloyd and Dan Monson meeting in a 2-15 matchup between Arizona and Long Beach State, as well as BYU's first game and Kansas taking on Samford in GU's pod.We close out the show discussing a handful of transfer portal targets for the Zags, including Stanford's Kanaan Carlyle and Andrej Stojakovic, Washington's Koren Johnson, and a mid-major guard from the Southland conference who managed to beat McNeese this year.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs are getting discussed as a potential upset waiting to happen as a five seed taking on a mid-major darling in 12 seeded McNeese State - but there is a lot working in favor of the Zags and not in favor of the Cowboys. That includes McNeese's poor free throw shooting, very poor strength of schedule, and inability to defend the three point line.We also discuss the potential second round matchup for the Zags with either Kansas, the four seed, or 13 seeded Samford. Kansas will be playing without star wing Kevin McCullar Jr for the entire NCAA Tournament, could Bill Self's team be the midwest region's program on upset watch? The Bulldogs play a very aggressive style which could spell trouble for the Jayhawks and their questionable depth.We close out the show discussing the rest of the midwest region, which includes two Player of the Year candidates in Zach Edey at Purdue and Dalton Knecht at Tennessee, as well as Ryan Nembhard's old team in Creighton and surprise SEC and Pac-12 opponents in South Carolina and Oregon.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

The Selection Sunday committee granted Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs a five seed in the 2024 NCAA Tournament, and part of the reason was because of old WCC foe BYU, who got bumped to a six seed in order to accommodate their school policy to not play on Sunday's. Does that mean the Zags were overseeded? Not exactly, they are still higher in the NET and KenPom than multiple teams seeded five or higher.St. Mary's also earned a five seed and we discuss who will go further in the bid dance, Randy Bennett and the Gaels or the Bulldogs? Plus former Zag Dominick Harris entered the transfer portal once again, and former Pepperdine head coach Lorenzo Romar took an assistant job at LMU - could a trio of Waves transfers be joining him and the Lions?We close out the show discussing Lisa Fortier and the women's team, who earned a program-record No. 4 seed in the tournament and a chance to host first two round games in Spokane. They'll take on UC-Irvine team that won the Big West but also lost to two WCC teams in the non-con, with a chance to play No. 5 seed Utah in the second round - and perhaps a rematch with No. 2 seed Stanford.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs earned a five seed in the midwest region of the 2024 NCAA Tournament, where they will play 12 seed McNeese State in Salt Lake City on Thursday. This is a fantastic sign of respect for the Zags, and they could get a second round matchup against a beat up Kansas Jayhawks team and beyond that a rematch with Zach Edey and No. 1 Purdue.St. Mary's also earned a five seed as the committee seemed to value the WCC, while BYU was only given a six seed. Elsewhere, former Zag coach Dan Monson led Long Beach State to a Big West title and a 15 seed against another former Gonzaga coach, Tommy Lloyd, while former Zags Hunter Sallis and Efton Reid were left out of the Field of 68 at Wake Forest.We close out the show discussing a pair of transfer portal targets Gonzaga has already contacted, Marcus Foster from Furman and Jacob Crews from UT-Martin, and how we think Few's team might attack the portal this offseason.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

SEC commissioner Greg Sankey is making it clear he wants the NCAA Tournament to do away with automatic bids and only feature Power-6 college basketball programs, a terrible idea that goes against what college athletics stands for. Not only would it dramatically impact the Gonzaga Bulldogs and the WCC, it would officially separate the big conferences from the rest of college athletics.Zoom Diallo remains committed for now to the Washington Huskies, but after Mike Hopkins was let go could the four-star 2024 guard prospect reopen his recruitment?College basketball Selection Sunday is just a few days away, and the bracketologists are projecting Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs anywhere from a six to an eight seed in the NCAA Tournament. We discuss which teams Zags fans should be rooting for and against in Power-6 conference tournament games on Friday and how it could help the Zags end up on the six seed line. Finally, we discuss Lorenzo Romar's firing at Pepperdine and the trio of talented players entering the transfer portal in Houston Mallette, Jevon Porter, and Michael Ajayi - and whether any of them could end up in Spokane.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs fell to Randy Bennett and the Saint Mary's Gaels in the WCC Championship game on Tuesday, 69-60, in another hallmark matchup in what is the best west coast college basketball rivalry, bar none. Graham Ike got in foul trouble and Aidan Mahaney dominated for the Gaels, while the rivalry led to a lot of tension and altercations.What does this loss mean for the Zags ahead of Selection Sunday? They should still be a single digit seed in the NCAA Tournament, and in fact the argument they should still be a six seed is valid - although a seven seed feels like the likeliest outcome.Finally, we wrap the show discussing Lisa Fortier and the Zag women who shockingly fell to the Portland Pilots in the WCC Championship on Tuesday. It was their first loss since November 26 and likely cost them a shot at hosting a region in Spokane as a four seed. A five seed in Boulder or even a six seed in Corvallis now feel like the likely outcomes.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

The Gonzaga Bulldogs defeated San Francisco Dons in the WCC semifinals to advance to a matchup against Saint Mary's in the WCC championship - an incredibly common occurrence over the past two decades. The Zags did it thanks to a huge second half from Ben Gregg, as well as 18 combined assists and zero turnovers from Ryan Nembhard and Nolan Hickman.Mark Few vs. Randy Bennett Part III should be a doozy, especially after Mason Forbes and Alex Ducas had great games for the Gaels over the Broncos of Santa Clara.Finally, we wrap the show discussing Lisa Fortier and the Zag women who take on the Portland Pilots in the WCC Championship on Tuesday, and whether they will get a No. 4 seed in the Big Dance. Then we discuss Dan Monson, who was let go by Long Beach State after 17 incredible seasons with the 49ers and of course a huge legacy with Gonzaga as the coach of the tournament team in 1999.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

Will Mark Few and Randy Bennett once again match up in the WCC title game at the Orleans Arena? The Zags haven't missed the final game since 1997.We also discuss the transfer portal and what type of player the Zags could pursue this offseason, especially in light of Anton Watson's departure, and we consider if Dusty Stromer will start over Steele Venters when the latter returns from his ACL injury.Finally, we wrap the show discussing Isiah Harwell's visit to Spokane, Kelly Olynyk's new extension in Toronto, and Zag baseball's series win over Minnesota this weekend.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInThese days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

Will Santa Clara and San Francisco be the matchups for Saint Mary's and Gonzaga, respectively, and will the WCC Championship once again come down to a battle between the Zags and Gaels?We close out the show discussing what a third matchup between Mark Few and Randy Bennett's clubs might look like. Will Mitchell Saxen find a way to slow down Graham Ike? Can Ryan Nembhard continue to cause problems for SMC's guards?

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs were snubbed, egregiously, by the WCC coaches in the end of the season awards. Graham Ike and Ryan Nembhard deserved Newcomer of the Year over Jonathan Mogbo from San Francisco, while Ike had a case for Player of the year over Augustas Marciulionis from St. Mary's. Will these snubs add even more fuel to the fire for the Zags heading into the WCC Tournament? We also discuss why Braden Huff did not win Freshman of the Year, despite a stronger case than Ryan Beasley, and Nolan Hickman being named All-WCC 2nd team instead of first team - and why he should have made it over Aidan Mahaney.We close out the show discussing Lisa Fortier and the Zag women, who secured four of the six major WCC awards - with both Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year going to Yvonne Ejim and coach Fortier taking home the Coach of the Year award.FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states.
