The Gaels Don't Get It

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

2022/02/16

St. Mary's manages to ruin a perfectly good game of basketball, making their ultimate failure at the hands of our man Timme all the more satisfying. Without Chris to keep them in check Marty and Adam unabashedly bash the Gaels from Randy all the way on down to Logan. We'll finish with a look ahead at Santa Clara, the bubble, and an appearance from our famed visitor from the East, Karno-ac the magnificent! @freeirabrown Patreon.com/FreeIraBrown

Looking Forward To a Stay at the Marriott Center

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

2022/02/02

Gonzaga crushes two WCC also-rans LMU and UP. Will the hot shooting continue on the longest road in the WCC? (The one from Spokane to San Diego to Provo). We look past the Torreros to the final WCC duel in the Residence Inn by Marriott Center against the desperate Cougars of BYU. Can the Cougars do it? We doubt it. All that plus, farewell Tom Brady, we hate your guts. @freeirabrown patreon.com/freeirabrown

Holmgren Takes the Glitter Off Golden's Game Plan

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

2022/01/24

Gonzaga pulls away from the Dons after a brilliant game plan falls short in the face of Holmgren's dominance. We'll discuss how it went down and look ahead to games against WCC bottom dwellers LMU and UP. Free Ira Brown uses a lot of statistics that we frankly, barely grasp. To help with that, we welcome Jack Gilles of @JGTrends to explain how college basketball teams use analytics to squeeze every last bit of efficiency from players. patreon.com/freeirabrown @freeirabrown

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

2022/01/02

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

Concerned about turnovers and three point shooting? Well GU is here to put them to rest with two outstanding performances that hopefully indicate a return to form on the turnover front and a whole new form on the three point front. We discuss the wins over Texas Tech and Northern Arizona and look ahead to North Alabama before noting some of our favorite Christmas subtleties.

The Kids Are(n't) Alright?

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

2021/12/16

A lackluster team performance against the Merrimack Warriors last week had us yearning for another tune-up game before Texas Tech on Saturday. A game the Huskies ruined. We recap the Merrimack game, discuss the ups and downs, and give you the 411 on the Red Raiders. We close with the inagural FIB Gonzaga Hall of Fame Class! With a surprise guest.

The Chet Has Hit the Fan

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

2021/11/24

Gonzaga CRUSHES three teams no one has heard of to continue their undefeated start to the season . . . wait, one of those teams was UCLA; YIKES! We revel in the walloping of Westwood and Chet, the Wonderboy, coming into his own in front of Dickie V and a National audience on Tuesday. We then preview the game against a team that failed to make last year's NCAA tournament. Coached by some guy named Chichevsky (or something). Marty sends him on his way with a song. (58:34).

Timme Takes Texas

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

Drew Timme is now the undisputed king of Texas. We recap his tremendous performance against the Longhorns, Andrew Nembhard's eight (!!) assists and the return of the Mark Few seven man rotation. Meanwhile, the Ladies' sweep big sky country and look ahead to a big opportunity with Stanford coming to town. You should also expect a lot of UCLA talk. Lastly, we discuss all the wonderful things we're thankful for. ( 1:10:00 ). Support the show! Patreon.com/freeirabrown @freeirabrown

Cattle Called To the Kennel, with Steven Karr

2021/11/11

After a dominating, if initially disjointed, effort in the season opener against Dixie State, the Zags are set to welcome Chris Beard's bevy of experienced transfers. The FIB Boys take a few things away from the opener and give you the rundown on the Longhorns. Former podcast host, Steven Karr, then makes the correct takeaways from the opener and gives his insight on what may be the most anticipated game in the history of the McCarthey Athletic Center. After all that we take the time for some

Hype Train Whistling Dixie State

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

2021/11/08

Can you believe it’s been seven months since Gonzaga last played a game? Thankfully, that interminable wait is about to end. Gonzaga will shake off the rust and actually get back on the court Tuesday in a meaningful game, and Free Ira Brown is here to get you prepped for big game … or at least, the game before the big game! We’ll tell you everything we know about Dixie State (did you know former BYU coach Dave Rose went there?), look at what we expect from Gonzaga and wonder if this game is enough

On the Brink of a New Season, With KREM 2's Brenna...

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

2021/11/02

There’s nothing quite like a season tip-off on Halloween. Well, a kinda-sorta-mostly season tip-off. Exhibition games, at least. But hey, it’s games! And soon! Really soon! And Free Ira Brown is back to make sure our brains are full and ready to go. Not to fight off a zombie apocalypse (brrrraaaaaaaaaaaiiiins), mind you, but to finally fight off the final dregs of the preseason. And to help with that we brought in the great Brenna Greene to lend her expertise to the proceedings.

2021/08/19

There’s nothing quite like a good off-season podcast, is there? No games to distract you, no sudden or breaking news to divert your attention. Just three hosts, three microphones and a blank canvas. And just like that, Free Ira Brown is back! Yes, dear FIBbers, we are back with our (slightly delayed) summer pod. We go thoughts on Gonzaga’s schedule (at least what we know of it), we share our feelings on Duke and Coach K (we’re super positive...!), we join in on the heat wave in the northwest by

Free Ira Brown! - The Gonzaga Hoops Podcast ·

2021/04/23

We turn from the open sore of the Baylor loss to reflect on an unprecedented Gonzaga Basketball season before saying our goodbyes to those who won't return next year, especially newly-minted legends, Ayayi, Suggs and Kispert. Do raise a glass to lads with us! All that and more including, Do you believe in life after Lloyd? We close with some sports history shenanigans.
