SportsFilter: The Tuesday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
Zags are built like teams a few decades ago were. The team rarely ever gets top 100 recruits and typically depends heavily upon developed junior and senior players. This year they do have a lock lottery pick in freshman Suggs to complement the older players as well as some key transfers. They are as good a bet to run the table as there ever was.

I am digging the semi scruffy 70's college club team vibe that Timme and Kispert bring to Gonzaga.
I assume (or hope) that Bill Walton is feeling the love for the Zags as they seek perfection almost 40 years after his great UCLA team achieved it.
