After adding Kentucky, is this the toughest non-conference schedule the Gonzaga Bulldogs have ever had? Aug 08, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs and Kentucky Wildcats will take each other on at the Spokane Arena in November, adding another incredible opponent to Mark Few's non-conference schedule. With Kentucky joining Baylor, Texas, Michigan State, Alabama, Washington, and the rest of the PK85 on the schedule, the question must be asked: Is this the Zags most difficult non-conference schedule ever?

Today is mailbag Monday, and discussing the non-conference schedule is just one of many topics covered, including:

Who should start, Nolan Hickman or Hunter Sallis?
Three different starting lineup predictions, including one no one is talking about
Kaden Perry's health and outlook for 22-23
How many Zags will get selected in the 2023 NBA draft?
Where does The Kennel rank among toughest places to play?
Gonzaga women's basketball non-conference schedule

And more!

Drafting a dream college basketball specific super conference for the Gonzaga Bulldogs Aug 05, 2022

Show notes

Conference realignment remains the primary talking point across the NCAA this summer, but it primarily focuses on the SEC and Big Ten and college football, leaving the Gonzaga Bulldogs on the outside looking in. But what if conferences were determined by basketball?

That's what Locked on Zags host Andy Patton and Locked on Tar Heels host Isaac Shade aim to figure out in today's episode, where they take turns drafting their dream 12-team super-conference concerned only with men's basketball.

With Gonzaga and North Carolina spoken for, the pair dive into the rest of college basketball's blue bloods. See where Duke, Kentucky, and defending champion Kansas end up, and which new rivalries could come out of these conferences. Will Mark FEw and Tommy Lloyd be forced to play each other every year? Is the Duke-UNC rivalry dead? What about Kentucky and Louisville? How many west coast teams make the top-24?

All that and more in today's show!

How the Gonzaga Bulldogs could use their open scholarship for the 2022-23 season Aug 03, 2022

Show notes

Martynas Arlauskas is leaving the Gonzaga Bulldogs program after three seasons in Spokane, taking an opportunity to play professionally overseas. We celebrate Arlauskas' time with the Zags, while discussing what an open roster spot means in the month of August, and how Mark Few might attempt to utilize more room on the roster.

Then, in the second segment, we take a look at the WCC schedule which came out on Tuesday. The Zags open the conference slate with Pepperdine on New Year's Eve, and close with an epic senior night battle against Saint Mary's in The Kennel - which should be an all-timer.

Finally, we close out the show discussing Chet Holmgren's dominance at The Crawsover pro-am, Courtney Vandersloot's quest to lead the WNBA in assists, and the new contracts signed overseas by Jordan Mathews and Geno Crandall.

Analyzing why the Gonzaga Bulldogs have been quiet on the recruiting trail this offseason Jul 29, 2022

Show notes

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs have been quiet on the recruiting front this off-season, although they recently made an offer to 2024 point guard Dedan Thomas from Liberty High School - same school as Julian Strawther.

Will Gonzaga's quiet recruiting season continue, and how much does the transfer portal, NIL, and COVID-19 eligibility play a part?

Today's episode is a discussion on those topics, as well as a look at new contracts signed by Zag legends Kevin Pangos (Italy) and Josh Perkins (Israel). Finally, we say goodbye to Steven Gray, who retired after an excellent 11-year career spent primarily overseas.

Why Malachi Smith is a perfect fit for the 2022-23 Gonzaga Bulldogs Jul 28, 2022

Show notes

Mark Few will have a lot of very tough lineup decisions to make next season with the Gonzaga Bulldogs, who have more than enough talented players in the front-court and backcourt for the Spokane squad. Will Few rely more on the veteran guards, Rasir Bolton and Malachi Smith? What happens to freshman big man Braden Huff? What about Dominick Harris coming off an injury?

Today's episode is wedding themed as we discussed something old (Bolton) something new (Huff) something borrowed (Smith) and something blue (Harris).

Damian Lillard's new basketball camp could help the Gonzaga Bulldogs land a priority recruit Jul 27, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs coaching staff is hot on the recruiting trail, checking out multiple high-level prospects in the class of 2023. Xavier Booker listed the Zags in his top-ten, while priority recruit Kaden Cooper will be joined at Damian Lillard's new exclusive basketball camp, Formula Zero, by class of 2023 commit Dusty Stromer and incoming sophomore Hunter Sallis, a great sign he could be persuaded to come out to Spokane for his collegiate career.

Additionally, we discuss two other players in the class of 2023 whom Gonzaga has extended offers to - guard Wesley Yates from Texas and forward JJ Taylor from Simi Valley, California.

The Gonzaga Bulldogs are set to face the Portland State Vikings in the Phil Knight 85th Invitational Jul 26, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs will take on the Portland State Vikings in the first round of the PK85 on Thanksgiving evening at 9:30 PM PT. It's not the draw fans wanted, but potential matchups against Florida and Duke still await Mark Few's team in the tournament. We discuss the entire bracket field before answering spillover questions that did not make it into Monday's mailbag episode, including:

Which non-conference game I'm most excited for, and why
Ideal home-and-home matchups for both the men's and women's teams
Will the Big-12 ever consider adding Gonzaga?
If Big East and Pac-12 are not options, should GU go to the Mountain West?

And more!

Do the Gonzaga Bulldogs need a two point guard lineup to win a National Championship? Jul 25, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs have had the most success in school history when deploying two point guard lineups, a la Andrew Nembhard and Jalen Suggs in 2021 and Nigel Williams-Goss and Josh Perkins in 2017. Today is mailbag Monday, and discussing Gonzaga's two-guard lineup with Malachi Smith and Nolan Hickman, and how Mark Few might handle other rotation questions, is just one of many topics covered, including:

What one skill would I add to one player ahead of the 22-23 season?
Which priority recruit would I pick and why?
Has Gonzaga had a four-year player who never started consistently?
What does Gonzaga need to do to get the No. 1 overall seed again?
How would I design my dream GU uniform?

And more!
