The narrative in the coming days on the Gonzaga Bulldogs from the national media will talk about the ending of an era, and that is fair. Drew Timme, the Zags’ all-time leading scorer is done with college.
But that doesn’t mean the Zags’ era of success, five trips to the Elite Eight since 2017, two Final Fours, two national championship appearances, and eight-consecutive Sweet 16s is over. Not by any stretch. We’ve all been here before, talked about how it feels like the championship window is closing, and been surprised by what came less.
Remember how it felt post 2017?
