Locked On Zags - Daily Podcast On Gonzaga Bulldogs Basketball

Latest Episodes:

Who needs a win more, the Gonzaga Bulldogs or the Baylor Bears? | Will anyone watch on Peacock? Dec 02, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs have an epic showdown with Scott Drew and the Baylor Bears on Friday, a game not enough people will get to see due to it being exclusively shown on Peacock. Both the Zags and Bears are 5-2 on the season, with each suffering embarrassing losses - Baylor's coming earlier this week when Shaka Smart and Marquette defeated them by 26 points in the Big 12 - Big East challenge.

Drake Toll of Locked on Baylor joins the show and we discuss how important a win is for each team, the matchup down low with Drew Timme and Flo Thamba, as well as Baylor's dynamic veteran guards in Adam Flagler and LJ Cryer.

Finally, we close the show talking about the exclusivity issue with having this game on Peacock, and playing it in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and how trying new things isn't always the answer for college basketball.

5 keys to victory for Gonzaga Bulldogs over Baylor Bears | Courtney Vandersloot's jersey ceremony Dec 01, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs and Baylor Bears are set to face off in the Peacock Classic on Friday evening, a chance for a Mark Few and Scott Drew rematch while each team hopes to pick up a very valuable victory in what has been a challenging non-conference slate.

Baylor recently got ran out of the gym by Marquette in the Big 12 - Big East challenge, and no doubt the Zags will watch that tape to figure out how to bury this team. Still, guards Adam Flagler and LJ Cryer are playing out of their minds, and freshman Keyonte George will be a matchup issue for Gonzaga's backcourt.

We discuss five keys for a Gonzaga victory, including Hunter Sallis' role and Julian Strawther's consistency, and we finish the show discussing the three Zags who are getting their jersey hung up in the rafter this year: Kelly Olynyk (12/5) Dan Dickau (2/9) and Courtney Vandersloot (TBD).

Where is Gonzaga Bulldogs guard Dominick Harris? | And will the WCC survive without the Zags? Nov 30, 2022

Show notes

Mark Few's rotation has often been the subject of criticism from Gonzaga Bulldogs fans, and this year it seems that attention is on redshirt sophomore guard Dominick Harris. Harris, the founding member of the Tricky Trio, hasn't played much this year and we discuss why that might be, while also looking at Nolan Hickman's recent success and the up-and-down play of transfer guard Malachi Smith.

Discussion also includes Portland's Shantay Legans, the WCC after Gonzaga leaves, and we preview some big conference matchups coming up this weekend including Saint Mary's playing the No. 1 ranked Houston Cougars and a litany of matchups between WCC and Mountain West opponents.

Can the Gonzaga Bulldogs still get a No. 1 seed? | What to work on before facing the Baylor Bears Nov 29, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs have two losses before the calendar flips to December, unfamiliar territory for Mark Few's club despite a challenging non-conference slate that includes Michigan State, Texas, Purdue, Kentucky, and Xavier so far.

Today's episode is a delayed mailbag, and we discuss where this team might be seeded in March, their chances at winning a national championship, and if this team is really as good as the fans and analysts think they are.

We also get into Ben Gregg's growth over the weekend, the lack of a small ball lineup, a potential overreliance on Drew Timme, and a look at what the Zags need to do to prepare for Baylor, how Caleb Lohner might do in that game, and Oumar Ballo's development at Arizona.

Career high from Julian Strawther helps Gonzaga Bulldogs down Xavier Musketeers in PK85 Nov 28, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs finished third in the PK85 after defeating Sean Miller's Xavier Musketeers on Sunday, behind a career-high 23 points from Julian Strawther. Mark Few's squad showed some flaws this weekend, but to come back and pull off a gutsy victory despite a rough showing from Drew Timme is a sign of maturity for this team going forward.

Additionally, the Zags got huge performances from point guard Nolan Hickman, who had 10 assists and two turnovers in the Purdue and Xavier games, as well as Portland native Ben Gregg - who played great defense on Zach Edey and also hit a clutch three and grabbed six rebounds against the Musketeers.

We close the show discussing what the AP Poll will look like on Monday, where Gonzaga should be ranked, and what my top five would look like if I had a vote.

PK85 is here | What to Watch: Gonzaga Bulldogs vs Portland State Vikings | Thankful for Anton Watson Nov 24, 2022

Show notes

Happy Thanksgiving! The Gonzaga Bulldogs are set to take on the Portland State Vikings in the final Thanksgiving game of the PK85 - following many other marquee squads including North Carolina, Oregon, UConn, Villanova, Michigan State, and Alabama.

While the Vikings likely won't pose much of a threat to the Zags, this game does give fans the opportunity to see some of GU's other plays potentially shine - including Dominick Harris, Ben Gregg, Efton Reid, Malachi Smith, and perhaps the walk-ons Colby Brooks, Abe Eagle, and even Joe Few.

We close the show giving thanks on this holiday, thanks for true road games, thanks for Mark Few's in-game coaching, Anton Watson's emergence, and you all - dear listeners.

Gonzaga Bulldogs to the Big-12: Timeline, hurdles, expectations with Baylor matchup coming up Nov 23, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs are two weeks away from an epic showdown with Scott Drew and the Baylor Bears - which could be the perfect time to make an announcement about Big 12 Conference realignment. Today's episode discusses that possibility, as well as exploring the Ben Gregg and Efton Reid playing time competition.

Then, we take a look at five WCC players I would add to Gonzaga's current roster, including a pair from Pepperdine and USF's lead guard.

Finally, we close the show talking about Lisa Fortier's women's team with Matthew Walter, a reporter covering WCC women's basketball. What is the ceiling for this team, and how critical has Brynna Maxwell been to their success?

Can Gonzaga contain the turnovers? | Point Guard Drew Timme | Where is Dom Harris? Nov 22, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs are 3-1 after tough victories over Michigan State and Kentucky, but Mark Few's team still has one glaring issue: turnovers.

Today's episode is a delayed mailbag, and we discuss turnovers as a whole, Nolan Hickman's role, Drew Timme's turnover concerns, Malachi Smith's lack of contribution so far, and Efton Reid's future.

We also get into my preferred NCAAT path for the Zags, how this schedule is preparing Gonzaga for March, Rasir Bolton's recent performance, and the lady Zags securing big victories over Louisville and Tennessee in the Bahamas.

Gonzaga Bulldogs stomp Kentucky Wildcats behind career nights from Anton Watson and Julian Strawther Nov 21, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs put the loss to Texas in the rearview mirror on Sunday, blowing out John Calipari's Kentucky Wildcats in the first half and coasting to an 88-72 victory. Anton Watson played the best game of his collegiate career, while Julian Strawther dropped 20 points and grabbed 14 rebounds.

We discuss Gonzaga's persistent turnover issues, despite the victory, while also touching on Calipari's coaching decisions and the lack of impact from Gonzaga's two transfers, Malachi Smith and Efton Reid.

Then, we close out the show discussing the Lady Zags, who secured a huge victory over Louisville in the Bahamas before losing to Marquette on Sunday.

What the Gonzaga Bulldogs need to do to avoid another loss against the Kentucky Wildcats Nov 18, 2022

Show notes

The Gonzaga Bulldogs take on John Calipari's Kentucky Wildcats at the Spokane Arena in the first of six marquee non-conference matchups for Mark Few's program. Drew Timme vs. Oscar Tshiebwe is the big matchup, but Kentucky also has dynamic guard play from Sahvir Wheeler and Cason Wallace, and will no doubt look to avoid taking their second loss of the season.

I also provide my five things to watch for this game, including the Nolan Hickman vs. Hunter Sallis debate, more production from transfers Malachi Smith and Efton Reid, avoiding sloppy turnovers, and more!

Then, we close out the show discussing three Zags in the NBA who are having great starts to their season: Jalen Suggs, Andrew Nembhard, and Corey Kispert.
