At 9/1 now on my book and it's a gift.
Best team in college hoops and it's not even close. On another level compared to other top ranked teams in the nation.
They can score the basketball being one of the most efficient offenses. The frontcourt is hands down the best in the nation. Tillie, Hachimura and transfer Brandon Clarke. Name another team that has as much size/talent/depth in the frontcourt. Add in Petrusev off bench they have more depth. They are all scorers too. Tillie and Hachimura can shoot 3's Tillie can stretch the floor. Both are projected lottery/first round picks in next years NBA draft. Add in guys like Norvell, Kispert who can shoot or drive to the hoop/create their own shots. This team is scary good. Just watch them.
I remember 2 years ago when North Carolina won the national title they had 2 really really good bigs Meeks and Hicks that gave them a solid base and an advantage over every team. You couldn't stop them down low and they would outrebound other teams/get their 2nd chance pts. A solid frontcourt goes a long way in March. This year Gonzaga frontcourt is even better than that North Carolina team. More versatile. Not only can they score inside, they can shoot outside.
Zags international players/recruits already used to competing at high level. Few of them already play for their senior national team. They may not be as gifted athletically like the Zions and top American college players but they have excellent fundamentals and are damn efficient players. I would rather take guys like Tillie and Hachimura on my team over Dukes top 3 players or any other teams best players.
Gonzaga has been trending to becoming an elite program over the few years, but a national title will really cement that status.
Team has all the tools to win it all and feel it's their year.
