Ahem .... Gonzaga Football is undefeated since 1941. And the Zags and Vols are exactly tied vis a vis the number of Alums in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Hall of Famers by College - Hall of Famers | Pro Football Hall of Fame Official Site I'll go out on a limb and say there's a chance the...

Gonzaga will take on Tennessee in Jimmy V Classic at Madison Square Garden

No, he won't take another job ... for a variety of reasons. His dad was a Minister in the same Church for 55 years and he takes after his dad. He came to Gonzaga 30 years ago as a $1,500 a year Grad Assistant. When he arrived, he was pulled aside by the Campus Elders and told "You will never...

It's been like that every year during the Zags' current 20 year consecutive NCAA tourney streak .... including the past 4 years (where the Zags have won 12 games in the dance). And the last decade, where only Gonzaga and Kansas have won at least one game. Or just take the last 20 years (where...

Good one. Gonzaga doesn't have a game this week. 9 days off before their Monday night WCC Semi Final. Then another 9 (or 10) days off between the Tuesday Final and the Big Dance.

Hmmmm Preseason AP rank ... year end results ... '14/'15 - started 13th -- ended up Elite 8 '15/'16 - started 9th -- ended up Sweet 16 '16/'17 - started 14th -- ended up Title Game/Final 4 '17/'18 - started 18th -- ended up Sweet 16 '18/'19 - started 3rd -- currently #1 NET, #2 KenPom...

Tillie is way ahead of schedule and will Be available for the NCAAT. The 9 days off Between the WCC tourney final and the NCAAT is very helpful.

Not sure how closely you follow college basketball but there’s more to it than offensive stats. Crandall is the only backup pg and GU’s defensive specialist. He’s a grad transfer and with him missing 9 games the GU (including UT and UNC) there was a problem a) stopping dribble penetration and b)...

Gonzaga is no longer missing 2 of their Top 6 guys (like they were when they lot to the Vols and the Heels. Other than that, good point.

I'm thinking you "may" want to find a different #5 as Nevada lost last night.

His banked in three from the top of the arc late in the game sure helped as well. But to win big games you need breaks every now and then ... and missing a shot so badly that it goes in off the backboard was certainly a good break for the Vols. Hope to meet again in early April .... a rematch...

Zags sure don’t get a “free pass” to the Round of 32 each of the last 10 years, do they? And they sure don’t get a “free pass” to the Sweet 16 (including 2 Elite 8’s, a Final Four and a National Title game) each of the last 4 years, do they? Other than that, good point.

I'm not hung up on a 1 seed at all. I'd just like to stay out West. Also ... "if" the committee considers losses incurred with key injuries i.e. I KNOW Tre Jones will factor in ... not sure about Lamonte, Killian or Geno ... we'll have to see.

Hmmm ... Number of schools with 20+ NCAA consecutive tourney appearances - 4 - Kansas, Duke, Michigan State, Gonzaga Number of schools with at least 1 win in the past 10 consecutive NCAA tourneys - 2 - Kansas, Gonzaga Number of schools reaching Sweet 16 (or beyond) last 4 consecutive dances -...

Let's see. The Zags are currently ranked #2 in the NCAA "NET" rankings, #3 in BPI and #4 in KenPom. They have 2 losses this season (UT/UNC) ... neither loss at home but both losses while missing 2 of their Top 6 guys (not sure if you've heard the Duke guys whine about missing Tre Jones for 2...
