What I find funniest about these type threads is the way people on this board act like Gonzaga being in a weak conference is their choice.
It’s not. Gonzaga would absolutely love to be in a stronger conference. But none will let them in, because they don’t have a high revenue producing football program and are in such a geographically isolated location. That ain’t their fault.
Nonetheless, Gonzaga goes out of his way to schedule the toughest non-conference schedule it possibly can every year. For example, this year they scheduled Baylor, Virginia, Iowa, that’s a tougher non-con slate than any other team in the country played. And they do that year after year. So I holding their schedule against him. They try as hard as they can to play the toughest schedule they possibly can.
