Rock. Bottom.

Gonzaga loses 66-65 to Utah this evening.  Utah lost to Division II Southwest Baptist.  Are you kidding me?

It just keeps getting worse.   The Portland State loss was bad but somewhat excusable.  This one has no excuse.  Gonzaga and Mark Few once again come out sleepwalking and get pummeled in the early going. 

Gonzaga nearly pulled off the stunner but Matt Bouldin's last second shot rimmed out and the tip in was not successful.  Flat out, Gonzaga did not deserve to win this game.

There are too many negatives to cover right now on New Year's Eve.  Try and enjoy your evening.  We'll face reality some other time.

Horrendous

we don’t deserve to be ranked.

WHAT A JOKE!

Mark Few is a garbage coach. This season is proof of that. Wonderful recruiter – terrible gameday coach. Ever wonder why Gonzaga always blows late game leads? I.E UCLA and most recently, UCONN. Few has no idea how to motivate or how to game plan for a certain team, its always live and die by the three and free throw shooting. The rebounding is quite possibly the worst in school history and there is no inside presence. Pargo is incredibly timid, not to mention, overrated. Heytvelt is still on mushrooms if you ask me. I have loved gonzaga since The NIT with Monson, and I am having trouble rooting for this team. They dont play as hard as former teams and Few is CLUELESS.

We will learn from this.....

We will get better and at some point see the light. That’s what I keep telling myself at least. It is only December (was when we lost) but I don’t understand how we come out flat after losing twice. We should be fired up and ready to destroy teams. If something doesn’t change soon there is going to be one very upset Kennel when the students return in a week.

How will they learn?

They going to learn but running through a weak ass WCC and then losing in the first round……….AGAIN? Its as easy to see as the sky.

Few

I always love Few from April to November but then I quickly turn against him, especially during tight games. Always had a premonition that Grier would be a better choice for the Zags. Part of me hopes that Arizona or Oregon snatches him up after the season…that would probably mean Rice would be in though most likely.
