Northwest Teams just not elite

In my humble opinion, the two good basketball teams in the State of Washington, Washington and Gonzaga, are good not great and will never go to the Final Four as long as Lorenzo Romar and Mark Few are coaching. They don't seem to have the fire or spark necessary to win the big road game, that all good teams do, as part of being championship caliber teams. In a state like Washington, we need all of the advantages possible in order to win. I really think that Romar should have been criticized more intensely for losing last Saturday at Arizona. He should OWN the Pac-10 and his team has let the Wildcats pass them as the Best in the West.

Getting to Gonzaga, Sam Dower is a good player who deserves more playing time and should be ahead of Robert Sacre and Steven Gray, seniors who aren't as good as their predecessors. That's why St. Mary's may pass Gonzaga in the WCC.
