WannabeAA Walk-on

Here is how the "Gonzaga Talent and Coaching Scam" works:

They go all over the country and even the world to find talent. Not just the local high schools. They also probably spend more time and energy finding the right players and coaches.

And they probably work harder than anyone else.

It's just not fair to the rest of the WCC.

Of course they recruit well, they've been an elite team for several years

Today they are a well oiled machine. But doing those things got them there

9 of their players were from the Northwest--mostly Washington

This is correct if you are looking at walk-ons and fringe roster players.

Even up to 2008-2009, the majority of the players on the team were from the NW

Three players from the '09 team went on to the NBA. Pargo from Chicago, Daye

I agree they are getting higher rated recruits... however,

flyzag

2/22/19 10:58am

Right. The obvious difference is the percentages. It's a much higher rate

Goliath

They should give everyone else the opportunity to get their recruits first
