NCAA Screws Tyon Grant-Foster Out of Eligibility With Gonzaga
Make it make sense as to why the NCAA denied Gonzaga transfer Tyon Grant-Foster’s appeal for an eligibility waiver. He started his first two collegiate basketball years at Indian Hills Community College in Ottumwa, Iowa, from 2018 to 2020. The NCAA suddenly made it possible for certain college athletes before the start of the 2025-26 […]
Exhibition Preview: Gonzaga Takes on Northwest University at Home
Gonzaga basketball is officially back—even if the season hasn’t technically started yet. The Zags open exhibition play on Sunday, October 19, at the McCarthey Athletic Center with a tune-up against Northwest University, an NAIA program out of Kirkland, Washington, that finished 5-23 last year but brings back two starters, including leading scorer Trent Williams. The […]
Center Recruit Sam Funches Commits to Gonzaga
Just two weeks after experiencing Kraziness in the Kennel and receiving “We want Funches” chants from the Kennel Club, four-star center Sam Funches in the 2026 recruiting class decided to become a Zag. The Germantown product is following in a prominent lineage of dominant big men to come through Spokane (Kelly Olynyk, Zach Collins, Domantas […]
Gonzaga to Play USF at Chase Center, Seattle U at Climate Pledge Arena
Gonzaga and San Francisco will play each other for the third straight season at the Chase Center on February 18th on ESPN, the home of the Golden State Warriors and Golden State Valkyries. It’s just not the same; I would much rather watch these two West Coast Conference opponents go up against each other at […]
Player Preview: Jalen Warley, Ready to Turn Patience Into Production
The strength of Gonzaga’s roster in 2025-26 isn’t in its stars. Rather, it’s in the players’ best enough to start almost anywhere else, whose minutes might not even crack double digits this year. Jalen Warley is proof of that fact. A former five-star recruit out of high school and three-year starter in the Atlantic Coast […]
Gonzaga’s Drew Timme Waived By Brooklyn Nets, Sign Malachi Smith
One Zag is out, another one in. Just a month after his 25th birthday, the Brooklyn Nets forward Drew Timme was waived after averaging 12.1 points in 28.2 minutes on a 44.1 field goal percentage in nine games played in 2024-25. He also chipped in 7.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game. Along with this […]
Gonzaga Opens at No. 21 in Preseason Associated Press Poll
This marks the 25th straight season that Gonzaga has been ranked in the preseason Associated Press Poll. The Zags join Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, and North Carolina as the only programs to appear in each of the last 16 preseason AP Polls. No. 21 Gonzaga (387 votes) has matchups with No. 23 Creighton (158 votes), No. […]
Player Preview: Emmanuel Innocenti Might Be the Best Defender in College Basketball
I’ve spent the last hour combing X and YouTube for video clips of Emmanuel Innocenti doing what he does best: playing spectacular on-ball defense. The dude’s a lockdown disruptor at the point of attack, and it’s just simply not something you come by often in the world of college basketball anymore. But the unfortunate fact […]
