AP rank is #8 pre-season which is pretty crazy considering it's going to be a rotation loaded with freshmen and transfers. I'm very curious to see how it all pans out.
That seems high though the scrimmage beating of MSU gives me some hope it might not be. Considering the youth on the team, I'll be very happy with a Sweet 16 appearance. Anything beyond that will be gravy and very dependent on matchups.Hawkstorian":1kldpskh said:AP rank is #8 pre-season which is pretty crazy considering it's going to be a rotation loaded with freshmen and transfers.

Hope he's OK emotionallyNatethegreat":1fasy5fs said:Brock Ravet taking indefinite leave of absence from GU. Not sure whats going on but that leaves GU very thin at guard. Unfortunate, I was looking forward to watching him play.

Looking forward to watching this team progress. Seems like a lot of guys were dinged up tonight. Would sure like to see Tillie make it back.
Agree. A&M was a very poor offensive team. Not bad defensively though. And yeah, that 3 gamer gonna be huge. C'mon Killian, get healthy!Hawk-Lock":3nvwbm0m said:Natethegreat":3nvwbm0m said:I have no idea how good Texas A&M is this year but GU beats them by 30 tonight.

A&M was picked to finish near last in the SEC by most experts. Yeah they are power five team, but they would likely finish near the middle if they were in the WCC. We probably won’t know how great Gonzaga is until they play that three game stretch against UW, Arizona and UNC.
I feel the same on both accountsHawkstorian":o61ym0sp said:Big test this week .... I'm still not sure this team is top-10 right now but I'd be happy to be proven wrong.
Yeah they need that too to keep teams from clogging the middle on Filip and TimmeNatethegreat":1uy2hbds said:Yeah, its a real bummer for him just can't seem to stay healthy. Nice to see Kispert seems to be out of his shooting slump.
Yeah I saw Woolridge go out but had no idea Gilder went out early in the 2nd half. Watson out too I'd guess. Tillie "will try" doesn't sound promisingNatethegreat":1hb04li3 said:Lots of injuries last night. Apparently the playing surface is not good. Tillie says he will try and play but both starting guards could be out.
