Zaga guard play was just not up to par this year

And I been said it…the only way they gonna get to the next level of actually winning chips is joining a major conference the problem there only option is the pac10 and they are not a football school…those intense conference games in hostile environments against equally as talented teams should never be underestimated…Spokane is literally in the middle of nowhere they already at a disadvantage it’s not like they can pull local talent like Duke, UNC, Ucla..

I watched Houstan all summer in the u19s


Dude was supposed to be an elite shooter :mjcry: . If he was anywhere near what he was hyped as ...


Still seems like a lil kid. I think he'll improve if he comes back (which he definitely should )

Michigan made the mistake that everybody else does against Nova and that’s try to physically punish them because of their lack of size. Ed Cooley from Providence use to try this with Nate Watson and it was a dud most of the time. Nova swarms the shyt out of you in the paint.

If you ever want to beat Nova you have to pressure their guards. Creighton does this the best in the conference.
Purdue did it early in the year and beat em


Edey and Trevion is an all time center combo though

I honestly didn't mind the gameplan. We're just offensively challenged this year. Hunter knew he was gonna have to carry the team on his back, but the problem was.. Villanova knew it too. And they're too good on D to be that one dimensional.. which is exactly what were were this year.

Caleb killed it all Summer long, only to lay an egg for 9/10 of the season. It would be dumb for him to leave, but then again I called Jordan Poole a dumbass when he decided to leave. :yeshrug:

their recruiting class coming in was trash
Drew Timme gone
Chet Holmgren gone
Andrew Nembhard gone

Gonzaga is done. They had the last two years to prove their model works but if youre a 5 star at this point why would you go to Gonzaga? If youre in the transfer portal and can go to Big 12/Ten/East schools and even get a bag...why go to Gonzaga? It isnt like they have any players balling in the NBA either.

Iunno. I said unequivocally last year theyd never win after they lost to Baylor...but i drank the koolaid from analysts. Shoulda picked them to lose to TTU like I originally thought
