Remember that zany Zags rumor that got stirred up a few weeks ago when Craig “this is my real hair” Thompson let slip that he’d been chatting with Gonzaga about joining the league? Well, let’s just say the plot is going the way of my mid-section—thickening.
First, an eagle-eyed TV viewer spotted the commish at Gonzaga’s Sweet 16 game in LA—even though Nevada was also in the Sweet 16. Hmm.
Then, things really got kicked into gear yesterday when CBS Sports announced that the Zags were most definitely interested in fleeing the West Coast Conference that they’ve dominated since I had a bowl cut and frosted tips.
