Next Episode: Gonzaga Bulldogs Transfer Portal targets: Syracuse's Jesse Edwards and Utah State's Steven Ashworth

Gonzaga Bulldogs forward Julian Strawther officially declared for the 2023 NBA draft, although he didn't specify if he was maintaining his college eligibility or not. What does this mean for Strawther, who hit one of the biggest shots in school history and improved dramatically in three years with Mark Few?

We discuss Strawther's junior season, his place in Gonzaga's record books, and how often we will see these positive development stories in the new transfer portal and NIL era of college basketball.

We close out the show discussing what the Zags will look like without Strawther next year, including the role for Steele Venters and a trio of newcomers in Alex Toohey, Dusty Stromer, and Jung-Seok Yeo.
