Locked On Zags - Daily Podcast On Gonzaga Bulldogs Basketball Locked On Podcast Network

The NCAA is doing away with scholarship limits, which means college basketball men's and women's programs will now have 15 scholarships available every single season. With very few teams even filling 13 scholarships, how will this impact the game? And how will Mark Few and Gonzaga - known to find ways to use rules to their advantage - make this work? Will preferred walk-ons like Graydon Lemke and Cade Orness get scholarships? Will we see more redshirts?

Lisa Fortier and the Gonzaga Bulldogs landed a transfer from WCC rival St. Mary's in Tayla Dalton, who heads from Moraga to Spokane for her final year of college basketball eligibility. The New Zealand native teams up with Lauren Whittaker and discusses her time in the transfer portal, why she chose to stay in the WCC and join the Zags, what she brings to the team, why the league should be on notice about Whittaker, playing with Yvonne Ejim, narrowly missing an opportunity to play in the Olympics this year, and the growth of women's basketball not only in the United States but globally as well.

The Gonzaga Bulldogs landed yet another preferred walk-on for the 2024-25 college basketball season in Graydon Lemke. Lemke is a 6'11 stretch four who played in Las Vegas and likely would have been a higher ranked prospect if he had not suffered a torn achilles his junior year. He joins Noah Haaland and Cade Orness in what is likely the strongest trio of walk-ons in Zags history.

The Gonzaga Bulldogs 2024-25 roster was announced on the team's website, which included jersey numbers for the new Zags. Khalif Battle will rock No. 99 this year, and Michael Ajayi (1), Braeden Smith (3), Emmanuel Innocenti (5), and Ismaila Diagne (24) now have numbers as well. Plus, Dusty Stromer, Braden Huff, and Graham Ike packed on some pounds this summer - we discuss what that might mean for each player.

The ACC and Florida State are locked in a legal battle, which could result in the Seminoles and the Clemson Tigers jumping ship. We look at the variety of ways this move could impact the Gonzaga Bulldogs and their quest to join a new conference. The Big 12 may land FSU and Clemson, likely eliminating the desire to add the Zags, while a full-on collapse from the ACC could lead to many programs joining the Big 12 and potentially some in the Big East as well, like Syracuse and Louisville.

Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs will host 2025 4-star point guard Kingston Flemings on a visit during Kraziness in the Kennel in October. Flemings is a 6'3 pure point guard who ranks inside the top-25 of the 2025 class, and who has already visited Texas Tech and is set to visit Texas and Houston in September.
