ALERT: Mark Few TARGETS Stetson guard Ethan Copeland, can Gonzaga secure DESPERATELY NEEDED shooter?

Gonzaga Bulldogs ramp up their pursuit of Stetson sharpshooter Ethan Copeland as Mark Few eyes a boost to the Zags’ three-point firepower. Is Copeland’s elite shooting the missing piece for Gonzaga’s title ambitions? Andy Patton analyzes Copeland’s fit, his local connections to Washington, and the high-stakes battle for minutes and NIL dollars among top programs like VCU, LMU, and Pacific. The episode raises key questions around playing time and whether Gonzaga can outbid bigger budgets while addressing desperate outside shooting needs.

Massamba Diop’s transfer saga heats up as Gonzaga and St. John’s duel for the talented Arizona State big man, with NIL budgets, new NCAA “5-in-5” eligibility rules, and roster implications hanging in the balance. Plus, Ismaila Diagne finds a new home with San Francisco, spotlighting the WCC’s wild offseason and the surprising destinations for ex-Zags. 

Don’t miss the latest on Gonzaga roster moves, transfer drama, and the impact of NCAA policy shifts on college basketball’s power players.
