That's right, just one more episode of Free Ira Brown before we head into the podcast pre-draft process. In FIB's season finale, our heroes salute the greatest season in Gonzaga history by saluting our seniors and those whose Gonzaga careers are ending. There are tributes to Huge Piece, Jordan Mathews and Bench Mob leader Rem Bakamus as well as discussions of how the early NBA Draft declarations o...

Gonzaga's epic run through the NCAA tournament comes to a crushing end and the Free Ira Brow! boys are her to commiserate, console and commiserate some more. We look (at great personal sacrifice) at the highs and lows from the Final Four weekend and recognize how lucky we all are to have experienced them.

In the latest episode of Free Ira Brown, our heroes dive head-first into the first Final Four in Gonzaga basketball history. Can we just say that again? The first Final Four in Gonzaga basketball history. Sounds great, doesn't it? So what does it mean for the program as a whole? What makes this team different from its predecessors? Was this really the missing link from Few's resume?   And finally,...

FIB makes a special appearance to celebrate the trip to the elite eight and Jordan Mathews' huge nuts. Go Zags!

In our latest episode our heroes humbly offer a pod stuffed to the brim with NCAA goodness. We got facts, we got figures, we got losers, we got winners. Well, actually, no, we don't have losers, we have a Sweet 16 team. What we didn't forget is a top-to-bottom review of Gonzaga's wins over South Dakota (not to be confused with San Diego) State and Northwestern.  Those stories, plus we check in wit...

  It's the most wonderful time It's the most wonderful time It's the most wonderful time It's the most wonderful time of the year  Gonzaga is number 1 in the West Region. How could anything possibly go wrong? Do come sing along with Free Ira Brown, won't you? 

What a serene ending to a surreal regular season. That was just good, old-fashioned fun. Thirty two wins, (what should be) a No. 1 seed, the best regular season in the school's history. And the Free Ira Brown crew is here to exult in the revelry.   All this and more on the latest episode of Free Ira Brown, THE Gonzaga Hoops Podcast. Trust us: this one is fun.

Yes, yes, Gonzaga's undefeated season is a lost cause, but they remain a dominant force in college basketball as the NCAA Tournament looms. But first, the WCC demands to be put in its place once again in the desert. We perform a post-mortem on the BYU loss and attempt to find meaning from a no good, terrible, very bad day for the GU offense. To top it off we cheer up with a top three full of laugh...

We bring in none other than the Dan, the myth, the legend, Mr. Dan Dickau. No, really, Dan Dickau is on the pod. Yes, that Dan Dickau. No, we're not joking. The Gonzaga legend and broadcaster joins the FIB crew to discuss this team's remarkable run, Mark Few's evolution as a coach, Dickau's ping pong skills and Greg Heister's Dickau fandom. Those stories, plus we have a preview of San Diego, a Tal...

  Adam is back at the helm as the Free Ira Brown crew celebrates Gonzaga's latest comfy win over its supposed rival. That's right dear FIBbers, we're back, and in our latest episode, our heroes thoroughly enjoy all aspects of that delightful win.

  That's right, dear FIBbers, the top team in America, in both polls, is none other than your Gonzaga Bulldogs, and the Free Ira Brown crew has it all covered. In our latest episode, our heroes take in the news and take down the internet trolls. Haven't played anyone? Dumb. Wouldn't make the NCAA Tournament in a "real" conference? Ignorant. Are we a bunch of flat-track bullies, not worthy of the #...

Gonzaga's undefeated run continues with wins over Santa Clara and Portland and a  wild Tuesday night could land the Zags at number 1 in the country. The FIB boys discuss and later sit down with former Santa Clara and UCLA coach Kerry Keating for a long talk about the NBA, college kids, and which of his players the refs never got along with. Also, we speak ill of Randy Bennett (FIB we mean, coach K...

In our latest episode, our heroes explore every aspect of that beautiful, wonderful thumping of THAT LOT. From Williams' block party to Silas' defense to Mathews' shooting, we cover every aspect of the glorious embarrassment of Randy Bennett's over matched Ga*ls. freeirabrown@gmail.com  @freeirabrown patreon.com/freeirabrown  

And now the real fun begins. Are you ready? One of the nice things about having a direct rival in the WCC is you're guaranteed to play them (at least) twice a year. Home and away, punch and counterpunch, first blows and last words. Sold-out gyms. National television. Tent city. Are you ready?  Free Ira Brown is. And in our latest episode, our heroes have something special in store the visit of tha...
