  • Gonzaga’s Transfer Portal CHAOS Might Not Matter After Keeping Core, Future Bright for NEW Pac-12
    May 6 2026

    Gonzaga Basketball is heading into one of the most fascinating offseason transitions in recent memory. After losing multiple rotation players and veterans through graduation and the transfer portal, many fans are wondering if Mark Few and the Bulldogs are finally vulnerable entering the new Pac-12 era. But despite all the roster turnover, Gonzaga may still have one of the best teams in college basketball heading into the 2026 season. On this episode of Pac-12 Daily, Christian Rauh is joined by Andy Patton of Locked On Zags to break down Gonzaga’s offseason, transfer portal additions, breakout candidates, and what this roster could look like in the new Pac-12 Conference. The discussion dives into the departures of players like Emmanuel Innocenti, Braden Smith, and Steele Venters, while also explaining why Gonzaga prioritized keeping Brayden Huff, Davis Fogel, and Mario Saint-Supery as the core of the future. The episode also explores why Davis Fogel could become one of college basketball’s biggest breakout stars next season and how Gonzaga’s incoming transfer class, including Arizona State center Masamba Diop and former Houston guard Isaiah Harwell, could elevate the Bulldogs back into national championship contention. Gonzaga’s rim protection, roster balance, three-point shooting concerns, and NCAA Tournament ceiling are all discussed in detail. Additionally, the conversation examines Mark Few’s future as Gonzaga prepares for life in the Pac-12. With Few approaching 800 career wins and entering the Hall of Fame, questions are beginning to surface about how much longer he plans to coach and what Gonzaga basketball could look like after his eventual retirement. If you’re looking for Gonzaga Bulldogs basketball analysis, Pac-12 basketball expansion coverage, transfer portal breakdowns, NCAA Tournament projections, and college basketball offseason reactions, this episode covers everything you need to know. Welcome to Pac-12 Daily: your front row seat to the next era of college athletics.

  • HUGE: Pac-12 Just Won BIG With ESPN + CW Partnership
    Apr 30 2026

    The Pac-12 just made a MAJOR move. With the new partnership between ESPN and The CW, the Pac-12 is stepping back onto the national stage in a big way. More than 800 hours of live sports, expanded streaming access, and a massive boost in exposure could completely reshape the future of the conference. This isn’t just about where games are shown. It’s about visibility, recruiting, perception, and long-term survival. We break down: Why this deal is a massive win for the Pac-12 How ESPN changes the national narrative What CW still brings to the table Why this could be the start of real expansion The Pac-12 isn’t fading.

  • Fresno State EASILY The Most UNDERRATED Team Entering Pac 12 Conference, Plenty of Returning Talent
    Apr 20 2026

    Fresno State might be the MOST UNDERRATED team entering the new Pac-12… and it starts with one thing: retention. In this episode, we break down why the Bulldogs are quietly building one of the most dangerous rosters in the conference heading into 2026. Year 2 under the current staff is showing real signs of identity, culture, and continuity—and that’s something most programs in this new era simply don’t have. From returning production across the offense to a defense built on turnovers and physicality, Fresno State is bringing back key contributors at nearly every position. This includes top running backs, their leading receiver, and major defensive playmakers—all while avoiding the transfer portal losses that have crippled other programs. But the biggest question remains: quarterback. With a wide-open QB battle featuring multiple young and athletic options, Fresno State could unlock a more dynamic offense in 2026. Adding mobility at the position and expanding the playbook could be the difference between another solid season… and a true conference title run. We also dive into: Why retention is becoming Fresno State’s biggest competitive advantage How the “Valley pipeline” is fueling long-term success Breakout players to watch on BOTH sides of the ball What needs to improve for Fresno State to go from 9 wins → 11+ wins Why this team fits perfectly into the new Pac-12 landscape Bottom line: Fresno State isn’t just building a good team—they’re building a sustainable program. And in this version of college football, that might be the ultimate edge. If you’re a fan of Fresno State football, Pac-12 expansion, or college football sleepers… this is a team you need to be paying attention to NOW.
