One returning starter, bunch of promising new comers, and you are ready to jump off the cliff !

I just want to know why we never have any depth. From what I recall, we only had depth one season, 2015-16, when the Davis-Hogg-Gilder class were freshmen.
Last year, we had an injury, oh, there's the excuse for losing a bunch of games.
This year, we're missing two starters,well, we can't expect to win.
How is it that every other team in the nation deals with injuries by putting in a backup and still continues to play good basketball and win, but we lose a guy, and that's it, 20 loss season incoming?
Why do the BK Apologists work overtime for him?
It's like the guy is complete Teflon, and nothing is ever his fault. If we lose a game, it's injuries or the students didn't show up, it's never because he did a shyte job preparing the team.
And the BKA think the regular students and fans are completely blind idiots, like your average fan doesn't recognize bad basketball when s/he sees it. We plays bad basketball under Kennedy, a lot of it, and it isn't entertaining, and it isn't fun, and it doesn't attract fans. Stop blaming the students for finding something better to do than watch an un-entertaining product that loses on the court.

BCG teams had a ton of talent. But yes, they were loved because they all busted ass.
He left as soon as he could - failed at Kentucky !zooguy96 said:
That's why everyone loved BCG. His teams didn't have as much talent, but damn they played hard and disciplined, which led to winning. Marlon Pompey, Kavialuskus, etc were some of my favorite players.
Why can't we have that again. All it takes is a good coach.

That's cause he had elite players who didn't buy in.

That's another silly one. Good coaches get the players to buy in. Plenty of coaches are able to get 1 and dones to hustle. The fact that BCG failed at Kentucky isnt the fault of the players. It is on him. He was also a massive failure at Tech. His players there went full mutiny. So it seems like he failed with 5 stars and with regular Joe's. His amazing success here is the outlier, not the norm.
this kinda sums it up...TXAG14 said:

Ahem ... while I am confident your statement is correct, I DO have to do a little "football" trash talking.Pumpkinhead said:
'Gonzaga Beat Down' week, both off the court (taking Timme) and on. We'd destroy them in football though.
Appreciate your visit. Both to our gym and to our Board. Don't be a stranger .... i.e. you are welcome back anytime.CDub06 said:
On the plus side, the Gonzaga student section was nuts. Best student section I've ever seen. They were noisy, engaged & just having a blast the entire game - even when they were up 30. That was worth the price of admission.
That doesn't seem to be the case with how freaking hard y'all make it for visitors to get tickets.GoZags said:Appreciate your visit. Both to our gym and to our Board. Don't be a stranger .... i.e. you are welcome back anytime.CDub06 said:

Locals without tickets have to go through the same thing. It's a tough ticket. Locals get a chance during Winter Break (when the students are out of school).CDub06 said:That doesn't seem to be the case with how freaking hard y'all make it for visitors to get tickets.GoZags said:Appreciate your visit.

Well I'm used to visitors being allocated tickets. Apparently ours went exclusively to players guests.
The other thing is the fact that season ticket holders can't sell on stubhub, etc in fear of losing their tickets. Usually if you have money, you're gonna get tickets. For me I had to pursue a bunch of dead ends and scam artists before I found an honest seller. And then I wore neutral colors so she wouldnt get in trouble. I mean, y'all literally have the ticket holders names printed on the seats.
I'm not mad, it was just something I'd never heard of and didn't realize was going to be an issue.
