About this episode
Gonzaga Bulldogs eye San Diego State’s Miles Byrd as a top transfer portal target, seeking to bolster perimeter defense and offset losses from Jalen Warley and Tyon Grant-Foster. Can Mark Few transform Byrd’s streaky three-point shooting into a weapon for next season’s NCAA Tournament push? Host Andy Patton covers Byrd’s defensive prowess, NBA potential, and the growing interest from elite programs like Kansas, Kentucky, UCLA, and Houston. The episode spotlights Gonzaga’s urgent roster needs, potential Pac-12 rivals, and Utah State’s remarkable coaching carousel with Ben Jacobson's arrival.  Tune in for the latest on key transfer targets, implications for the Bulldogs’ recruiting strategy, and pivotal conference moves shaping Gonzaga’s future.
