Based on nba mock drafts and assuming no transfers or decommits, they are on track to have 10 top 100 guys on their team next year and they play in the WCC. You're crazy if you don't think they're a 1 or 2 seed next year, which gives them another good chance at a nattyBleachedAnusDawg said:
Only one guy (Suggs) could handle the pressure. Baylor was in their chests and Zag players could not get past them or initiate their offense. It was glaring. They also didn't have guys on defense who could keep up in isolation. Baylor guards all had 20+ pounds of muscle on their counterparts and were faster. Maybe Baylor was that one team in 20 years, but I don't think so. UCLA also exposed Gonzaga's inability to defend.RoadDawg55 said:
Gonzaga leads for Homgren and there is another top 10 guy going there. Gonzaga is going nowhere. The doogy hate is stupid.huskyhooligan said:
Bennett literally has a much deeper recruiting base and appeal at UVA. UVA has a much better hoops history than WSU. It isn't close.RoadDawg55 said:
Bennett ball gets them high seeds in the tournament every year. They eventually got thru. It will happen at Gonzaga. The big time talent started with Suggs and will continue to come.huskyhooligan said:
Bennett ball also got a really good no call on a double dribble. That being said (JBS), the move to Virginia was the appropriate move.RoadDawg55 said:He will win a title. You read it here first. Just like Bennett ball would never get it done ... at Wazzu.
They likely have two top 10 recruits on their roster next season. They will always develop other guys.
Baylor virtually returns everyone and also has two top 25 recruits. Michigan is bringing in top recruits. UCLA and Duke have top recruits. You gotta strike while the irons hot.
They ran into a really good team and lost. They beat USC by 20. The same USC that beat Kansas by 30+. All the talk about Gonzaga not being athletic enough is archaic bullshit and wishful thinking. You think it’s true because they lost to Baylor, but it’s not.
Homgren is 7 feet and weighs 195. He is doing nothing in the near-term. Zags are sorely lacking wing players who can defend and shoot 3's. Kispert couldn't keep up on defense and choked all game. -
Others have noted this but I’ll reiterateBleachedAnusDawg said:
Did you watch the game? They could not come close to matching Baylor's foot speed, nor handle Baylor's defensive pressure. Gonzaga had Suggs who could handle and create, but not another person on that team could both get their own shot and actually make it. Baylor had four guards who could all do that.Tequilla said:I don’t think athletes is a problem at Gonzaga ... they win big recruiting battles
Gonzaga is winning major recruiting battles ... even dudes like Timme are recruiting wins
They used to never sniff dudes like Suggs
Now they are getting big time players consistently
They are also getting big time transfers as well
Baylor had a ton of guards that will play in the NBA and that probably was Gonzaga’s big weakness ... stopping dribble penetration. -
Agree that they have to win one. My point is the opportunities aren’t going away. They are one of the destination schools for recruits and transfers. They still are the top destination for the top foreign recruits too. They aren’t going anywhere and any big proclamations other than that they are really good are FS and inaccurate.Baseman said:

They lost one game. You fags never have any analysis for when Kansas, Michigan State, etc lose. No big statements that they will never have the athleticism.BleachedAnusDawg said:

Ayayi is really good and probably a first round pick but still. The Florida transfer was a five star. Kispert played bad in the tournament. It’s hard to win when a guy a team depends on struggles.
They got beat by a better team. Gonzaga is still one of the premier programs. There really isn’t a better program set up for success the next five years. They lost. That’s it. There is nothing to take from the loss.
Unless they win the big one they’re Ccllege basketball’s 1990’s Buffalo Bills, destined to be a forgotten historical footnote. -
Agree that they'll get it done eventually, and really there's nothing to give a shit about from a doog's perspective. If you have no football program you better pump everything you have into men's basketball if you want people to care about your shitty little school in SpokassholeOfWA.RoadDawg55 said:
