• Ups and Downs in WCC Dog Days`
    Jan 7 2026

    Gonzaga barely escaped the firece talons (beak? whatever) of the Redhawks of Seattle University, then proceeded to float merrily into their home tilt against the Lions of LMU. Much like the lion tamers of old, the Zags gently placed their head into the Lions' mouth, giving it the false sense of power, before pulling back and unloading their blunderbuss into the beasts heart. Too much metaphor? Maybe.

    In any event, the FIB boys will walk you thorugh both games, speculate further on Mario Saint-Supery's love life, and sing the praises of his highness of efficiency, Braden Huff.

    We'll then take a look at the upcoming game against Santa Clara, in which a high flyn' Broncos team will hope to steal some of the Redhawks' Kennel mojo (they will fail). All that and more on this episode of Free Ira Brown! THE Gonzaga Hoops Podcast.
