Two thoughts

1) God, I hope we play better

2) This might be the worst College Gameday ever

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 5:37 PM PST reply actions  

I'm feeling pretty good...

I’m pretty busy tonight so I won’t be able to watch the whole game, but I feel like there will be a lot of frustration vented on the Pepperdine rim. This could get ugly.

Shaq as an undercover cop:
Shaq: yo man, can I score some dope?
Dealer: Motherf****r, you shaq.

God I hope you are right

I need to see a dominant performance….trying to stay level-headed with this team

Sorry about Baylor

I know you love the Bears

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 5:49 PM PST up reply actions  

So dangerous

I want no part of them in March.

…but since they’re Baylor they’ll always be inconsistent.

Four teams I would love to play....four I would hate to see

Love to play: Villanova, Butler, Maryland, Syracuse

Would crap my pants: Temple, Georgetown, Baylor, Kansas

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 5:56 PM PST up reply actions  

Also wouldn't mind West Virginia, Vandy.

Do not want K-State and New Mexico either.

I would actually flip-flop your list

I would love to see K-State or New Mexico and probably Vandy

The Mounties petrify me

Final 4 or bust

At least the Olympics is on soon

I hope he lit into the guys after the last game….perhaps even showed them my article

about doing some standup comedy if everything else fails in life

Totally different team tonight

lots of emotion and fire

it's terrible

there’s no replay or zoom. just straight back and forth. i feel like i’m watching a high school game

No joke

Something tells me the coaching staff lit into these guys and got the focus back

Final 4 or bust

Looks like GJ

has worked his way into the rotation

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 6:27 PM PST reply actions  

anyone else notice

the rim Pepperdine is shooting on sounds like its Mic’d or something. Sounds god awful. Stoked i get to see this game on TV though!

by Zag Luis Obispo on Feb 20, 2010 6:27 PM PST reply actions  

I put on a Lupe Fiasco CD

so I wouldnt have to listen to Ehlo and Heister

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 6:28 PM PST up reply actions  

haha good call

I think an Ehlo and Heister drinking game is long overdue.

by Zag Luis Obispo on Feb 20, 2010 6:30 PM PST up reply actions  

i'm always surprised when elias draws fouls

wcc refs hate him for some reason

The Slipper Still Fits - SB Nation's home for the Gonzaga Bulldogs!

by Zach Bell on Feb 20, 2010 6:29 PM PST reply actions  

I think he is just drained at this point

Elias and Matt both need limited minutes the rest of the regular season

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 6:30 PM PST up reply actions  

Really?

Probably freshman of the year? Who the heck else is there…

by coltinjespersen on Feb 20, 2010 6:30 PM PST reply actions  

i need bol to shoot it like 5 times

he’s got to force his way out of a slump. still feel like he’s a huge piece of a deep march run

The Slipper Still Fits - SB Nation's home for the Gonzaga Bulldogs!

by Zach Bell on Feb 20, 2010 6:32 PM PST reply actions  

Looks awwful so far

Its frustrating seeing Bol struggle like this

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 6:34 PM PST up reply actions  

Manny in for Bol

Bol is playing his way out of the rotation

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 6:37 PM PST reply actions  

Rob

looks much quicker with his moves

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 6:37 PM PST reply actions  

NOBODY

Can defend that hook. He should spend a half just going to that every time he touches the ball. Don’t even bother passing.

by surfmonkey89 on Feb 20, 2010 6:38 PM PST up reply actions  

our defense is just...wow

so many charges.

Zach

You mentioned above about the unis. Were you saying you liked ours, or hated Pepp’s?

by surfmonkey89 on Feb 20, 2010 6:39 PM PST reply actions  

absolutely love ours

hope it is permanent.

The Slipper Still Fits - SB Nation's home for the Gonzaga Bulldogs!

by Zach Bell on Feb 20, 2010 6:40 PM PST up reply actions  

Love the classics too

But I like these better than both the red and black versions.

by surfmonkey89 on Feb 20, 2010 6:40 PM PST up reply actions  

See i love the black uni's

The reds were just ugly.

Meech

It would be awesome if he could shoot the ball. He comes off the high screen so well but he just can’t pull up and knock down that jumper, it kills me. I can only dream…

by coltinjespersen on Feb 20, 2010 6:40 PM PST reply actions  

Only a sophomore

He will improve that area of his game

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 6:41 PM PST up reply actions  

I hope so

That was something that always bothered me about Pargo. When Matt is gone we’re really gonna need another pure jump shooter and I’m hoping Meech can somewhat fill that role. Idk it’s just something about him, I could see Meech coming off that high screen and burying dagger after dagger after dagger.

by coltinjespersen on Feb 20, 2010 6:43 PM PST up reply actions  

believe it or not

his mechanics were really completely changed when he got to Gonzaga. He’s still actually learning how to shoot but his form is there. Just a confidence thing.

The Slipper Still Fits - SB Nation's home for the Gonzaga Bulldogs!

by Zach Bell on Feb 20, 2010 6:41 PM PST up reply actions  

Lost in a lot of discussions lately

Is that Meech has slowly improved over the last four weeks or so.

He needs to settle down wrt TOs, but if he continues to improve he’ll be good for 8-10, which means people will have to guard him :)

by surfmonkey89 on Feb 20, 2010 6:43 PM PST up reply actions  

Wondering the same thing

i’m not totally sure. hope he sits for a while in the second half.

The Slipper Still Fits - SB Nation's home for the Gonzaga Bulldogs!

by Zach Bell on Feb 20, 2010 6:45 PM PST up reply actions  

No offense to Pepp

but I’d like to see these guys beat them by 40.

Need to practice stepping on their throat and not letting up.

by surfmonkey89 on Feb 20, 2010 6:48 PM PST up reply actions  

Heister is far worse than Ehlo

It’s got to be one of the worst tandems in broadcast history

by Zach Bell on Feb 20, 2010 6:48 PM PST up reply actions  

Great trap by Meech and Will

the defensive intensity is beautiful

Final 4 or bust

by Max Mandel on Feb 20, 2010 6:49 PM PST reply actions  

Hey guys

I know we’re a long way out but I figured I would throw this out there. I don’t know what the deal was last year on selection Sunday or anything but you think there’s anyway we could set up an open discussion once the brackets are released. I hate not having anyone to talk to about the Zags, all my friends want to talk about is Uconn and the Big East (fortunately it looks like Uconn might miss out this year :) haha) I think it would be great to be able to dissect our opponents, smile or bitch about if were in Spokane or not and just talk about everything. Just a suggestion

by coltinjespersen on Feb 20, 2010 6:51 PM PST reply actions  

Not sure about years past...

Maybe you guys have done this I’m not sure so don’t hold it against me if we’ve already done this haha

by coltinjespersen on Feb 20, 2010 6:53 PM PST up reply actions  

We'll absolutely have an open thread for Selection Sunday

No better day in the world than when the brackets are revealed….

until gonzaga makes a final four. then that will be the best day.

The Slipper Still Fits - SB Nation's home for the Gonzaga Bulldogs!

by Zach Bell on Feb 20, 2010 6:53 PM PST up reply actions  

Awesome

Haha I always wonder how many hours I will spend on my brackets. Usually I go over 10 hours but sometimes it just get’s out of hand. At least I don’t have to worry about getting in trouble during school this year! I’ll never forget when my Math teacher came up to me after class and asked to look at my bracket instead of my homework since he knew I didn’t do it.

by coltinjespersen on Feb 20, 2010 6:59 PM PST up reply actions  

The one I fill out right after they are revealed

is usually always my best. I tend to get carried away with upsets and such if i think too much.

The Slipper Still Fits - SB Nation's home for the Gonzaga Bulldogs!

by Zach Bell on Feb 20, 2010 7:01 PM PST up reply actions  

Same here

There’s always those 4 or 5 games that I can’t seem to make up my mind on and I ALWAYS get them wrong. It kills me every year, I spend like an hour alone on a game and finally just go with my gut and it’s never right. Everything that makes sense when comparing two teams never makes sense when the game is over.

by coltinjespersen on Feb 20, 2010 7:08 PM PST up reply actions  

almost second half time

wonder how few will do the rotations. hopefully matt for the first five minutes and then out

a lot of weak post efforts this half and missed open shots. passing has been very very crisp

I have no idea, Mike

I don’t understand. Obviously Few isn’t happy yet with his starting five.

totally agree

there’s no reason for him to have played the past 8 minutes in this one.
