About this episode
Braden Huff’s injury casts a long shadow over Gonzaga Bulldogs basketball—is an extra year in Spokane possible for the standout forward? Andy Patton explores Huff’s eligibility and the crucial role he played in Gonzaga’s season, while also ranking the Bulldogs’ most heartbreaking NCAA Tournament exits, including stunners against Wichita State and Texas.
Key topics include top transfer portal targets like Christian Hammond and Mikey Lewis, the need for perimeter shooting, and the shifting landscape of NIL transparency. Patton tackles burning questions about tampering, program sustainability amidst massive player turnover, and the uncertain return of the Gonzaga–Washington rivalry on the non-conference schedule. With insights on Mark Few’s future roster strategy and the impact of new NCAA regulations, this episode unpacks what’s next for Zags basketball, both on and off the court.
