Mark Few compares Ismaila Diagne to Ronny Turiaf?! | Few's thoughts on adding OSU and WSU to WCC

Gonzaga Bulldogs head coach Mark Few held a press conference ahead of his trip to Paris to be an assistant coach with Team USA at the 2024 Olympic Games. Few talked about the team's new players, comparing Ismaila Diagne to Ronny Turiaf, discussing Khalif Battle's elite ability to get to the rim, and the strong communication they had with Michael Ajayi in the pre-draft process and with Braeden Smith choosing to redshirt.
Few also spoke about Steele Venters' return from injury, the WCC adding both Oregon State and Washington State - and how it impacts his non-conference schedule - and the ever changing landscape of college athletics in the NIL and transfer portal era.
Few also talked a lot about getting to work with Team USA, including Gonzaga's day-to-day operations while he's gone, coaching against former players like Kelly Olynyk and Andrew Nembhard, and what he's learned from working with Steve Kerr, Tyronn Lue, and Erik Spoelstra.

Losing BYU was a disaster for our conference. I think Coach Few really misses having that amazing program and fanbase in our league.
