West Coast Conference Unveils new Logo

Not sure how i feel about the new logo, but you cant argue with adding a top 20 basketball opponent to the Zags schedule twice a year.

Demarquise Johnson back in the fold?

It seems the previous reports to DeMarquise Johnson's demise as a Gonzaga recruit, may have been a bit exaggerated. According to Scout.com, Johnson is not only still listing the Zags, but has Gonzaga in his top three per his father. The only issues that remain are the potential logjam in the guard and/or wing position. While he seems higher on the Zags than the initial reports indicated, i would still not hold my breath as he may be seeking more potential initial playing time.

Ryan Spangler Plays in Oklahoma All-Star Game

While playing in the 2011 Faith 7 Oklahoma All-Star game, Ryan Spangler was asked why he wanted to go to school across the country in Spokane, WA. He responded, “I know it’s far off, but I like winning and they’re always in the NCAA Tournament, I would rather go somewhere far and win rather than stay somewhere close and lose.”

Spangler is not leaving the OK State without having left a mark, His senior season was spent racking up averages of 29.2 points, 17.9 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game. He also Shot 72 percent from the field, 70 percent from the charity stripe. He currently holds the state record for rebounds, and the school record for scoring, rebounds, and blocked shots. Spangler left Oklahoma as the Basketball Coaches Association POY, the Gatorade POY, and a Parade All-American. He said he plans to major in Business at Gonzaga.

A Lucky freshman, Spangler will get a chance to travel home this season when the Zags face the OK State Cowboys in Stillwater. Good Luck Ryan!

Manny Arop narrows choice to 2

According to Jim Meehan's twitter Account,

"Ex-Zag Manny Arop apparently down to two schools: Valparaiso and Indiana State."

We will see over the coming days where he will end up.

Demarquise Johnson?

According to ESPN.com Insider, Demarquise Johnson is no longer interested in the Zags. Id imagine the recent additions to the wing, ie. Guy Landry, and the logjam at guard is influencing his decision. The Bryce Jones debacle cant be helping matters either.

Meech to play Corner at Baylor

Well Folks, its official, Demetri Goodson is transferring to Baylor for football. As most of us suspected the reason was a chance to improve his professional chances. In his words, "I could probably go overseas and make some money,” Goodson said. “But professionally football will be a better move for me just because of the number of basketball players who make it and the number of football players. That was basically why I did it.”

According to Baylor Head Coach, Art Briles, Goodson is bigger than both starting corners for the Bears and with his speed, hes a shoe in for playing time. Good luck Meech, hope this turns out well for you.
