How Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs pulled off the BEST OFFSEASON in all of college basketball!

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs have had the best offseason in all of college basketball. They returned eight scholarship players from a Sweet 16 team last year, losing only Anton Watson to graduation and two non-contributors, Luka Krajnovic and Pavle Stosic, to the transfer portal. The returning group - which includes Graham Ike, Ryan Nembhard, Ben Gregg, and Nolan Hickman, is arguably the best group of returners in the entire sport, on par with Iowa State, Kansas, and Alabama.

Gonzaga also added a trio of transfers who will help them compete right away, including Pepperdine's Michael Ajayi who pulled out of the NBA draft process and will help replace Watson at the four, and Arkansas guard Khalif Battle and Tarleton State's Emmanuel Innocenti.

We close out the show discussing how Few and the Zags staff also prepared this program for the future beyond this upcoming season, landing Colgate transfer guard Braeden Smith who will redshirt, as well Innocenti who has three years of eligibility and the team's pursuit of 17-year-old Ismaila Diagne and 2025 recruits Isaiah Harwell, Nik Khamenia, Davis Fogle, Jalen Haralson, and more!
