Just got back from the Zags Exhibition. The Kennel was jumpin tonight for the Zags who are ranked 14th in the nation preseason. Kuso started and Heytvelt came in about 4 minutes into the game with mighty applause. Josh only entered the game twice and I don’t think he played more than 7 minutes total. Few is obviously keeping Josh in check. Emporia State was shooting lights out like Butler did against the Zags last year and the Zags only had a 3 or 4 point lead at the half. The second half was all Zags though and they were up by 20+ when I left with 3 minutes left. Pargo played very well and Few rotated players a TON. Two players shined and you will hear a lot out of them this year and the next three years if they don’t leave early. Robert Sacre, the 7 foot tall freshman had a solid performance and Austin Daye may have outshined everyone. The 6‘10 freshman looks like Reggie Miller and can play any position, Magic Johnsonesque. Seriously, the kid, no manchild, is gifted…a phenom! I have high hopes…but I always do/ JimmyMAC .

Question: Do you follow the Zags?
