Trivia
No earth-shattering Cougar news at the moment, so I thought I'd go ahead and ask this:
[cue Aflac duck walking across the screen]
Only three visiting coaches have won on the Zags' current home floor, the McCarthey Athletic Center. Name them.
Two of the coaches should be familiar names to Coug Nation. The other... maybe not so much.
Winner gets the glory of sports knowledge superiority among their fellow blog commenters! Yeah!

Hey, I'm not going to ruin it for everybody else...
But I was able to successfully name the first two easily… and I thought I was going to be right about my third guess… but you were tricky with your McCarthey Athletic Center technicality. I could not for the life of me told you the name of the third coach without looking it up.
Originally I was thinking Calipari of Memphis, because they have beaten Gonzaga in Spokane each of the last two times they have played there...
But, they played in the Spokane Arena.
Good question....
And after thinking about it for a few minutes I came up with the answer, but not before having to look up the coach of the third team, just like cfred. The first two coaches were obvious and we look for one of them to add to his total.
hmm, before I look it up
I seem to recall some lowly WCC team beating the Zags at home this year but I could be totally out of my mind. I wouldn’t recognize the coach’s name if that was the case anyways, but was it Santa Clara’s coach? hmm..
Oh, I forgot which game was played at Key Arena and which was at the MAC.
I got the first two like everyone else
But don’t care enough about Gonzaga basketball to think that hard about the third. :-)
It was Santa Clara
The team was Santa Clara a couple years back. I remember it was a big deal back then because it broke the streak against WCC teams.
