Zag recap, and a ton more

Lots of analysis, quotes, stats and links if you click on extended entry below.

Batting leadoff, though, is the S-R’s John Blanchette, took a big-picture look at the Zags’ latest loss. He discusses GU’s defensive lapses, inconsistencies of several players and why Micah Downs played just 12 minutes. (Go to previous post for the S-R game story.)

Programming note: Blanchette visited with GU assistant and ex-Utah head coach Ray Giacoletti and will have a column in Monday’s S-R. GU takes on Giacoletti’s old team, Utah, at 5 p.m. Monday.

Onward for more (Warning: This will be a long post — longer for me since I’m on dial-up!)
