Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast
Three alumni/superfans, Marty, Chris and Adam discuss Gonzaga Basketball with previews, recaps and game analysis, all presented with good humour (spelled the English way because we're fancy).

 

Yes, this one stings. But fear not, dear FIBbers. Despite the pain, despite the agony, despite that sting, the Free Ira Brown crew is here to close out this roller-coaster season. In our latest episode (Season 2, Ep 24), our heroes go over the Sweet 16 loss to Syracuse from front to back, tipoff to final buzzer. What went right (Wiltjer, Sabonis), what went wrong (turnovers, defensive rebounding), what made everyone wring their hands (McClellan, those last six and a half minutes).

Those stories, plus we take a look back on the season as a whole. Do we qualify this season as  a success? Where does this team rank among our personal favorites? (Spoiler alert: pretty damn high.) Is it any comfort that Syracuse is in the Final 4? (We’ll give you one guess…)

All that and more in the latest edition of Free Ira Brown, THE Gonzaga Hoops Podcast. Do join us, won’t you? Don’t leave us alone in a time like this.

In this, our newest episode (Season 2, Ep 23), our heroes sit down to discuss some of the Sweet Memories of Gonzaga’s best weekend of the season. Big East champions? That’s terrific, we’re happy for you. Next. Pac-12 Player of the Year? Isn’t that Sweet. Get out of the way. We've got it all covered, from the defensive domination to the offensive efficiency to the sheer capitulation-causing concentration for 80 brilliant minutes.
 
We’ll get you primed for the Sweet 16 matchup against Syracuse. How does Gonzaga handle the Orange’s vaunted 2-3 zone? Where can Cuse cause us trouble? Where can we take advantage of a team most thought shouldn’t even have been in the Tournament?
 
All this in more in the latest edition of Free Ira Brown, THE Gonzaga Hoops Podcast. Do join us, won’t you? We promise, it’ll be Sweet.

And then there were 64 (well, really, 68, but that's pretty lame and doesn't have the same ring to it so we're gonna go ahead and ignore that)! And the Free Ira Brown crew has you covered. In our latest episode (Season 2, Episode 22), our heroes cover everything you want to know about Gonzaga in Denver. 

Those stories, plus we have actual basketball coverage (no, really). What are the Hall's weaknesses? Strengths? How do they match up with Gonzaga? Don't worry, we hit it all. Plus we share some thoughts about the Pac-12 as a whole, take a look at which unprotected seeds may make a run to the second weekend.

All that and more in the latest episode of Free Ira Brown, THE Gonzaga Hoops Podcast. Do join us, won't you? It is, after all, the most wonderful time of the year.

Chris, Adam and Marty can hardly contain themselves after Gonzaga wins its 14th of the last 18 WCC Tournament finals. We celebrate, elaborate, and discombobulate with joy at a fantastic performance from the Zags.

Oh, and the fact that St. Mary's is firmly on the bubble makes this victory all the sweeter.

Go Bulldogs!
