Gonzaga probably isn�t Final 4-bound this year, like we predicted weeks ago. It�ll probably even be a struggle to make the NCAA tournament in light of the arrest of second-leading scorer Josh Heytvelt over the weekend. You know the story � busted tail light, cops smell weed, find shrooms. What a disaster. The night before a game, the Edward Norton-lookalike (from American History X, anyway) is hotboxing with a freshman and in possession of shrooms (a felony!). Welcome to major college basketball, Mark Few.

Four million ways to go with this. Did they score the shrooms from former FSU quarterback Wyatt �Lyme Disease� Sexton? Was Heytvelt wearing a flannel when this went down? Does this further the stigma that nothing matters in the Northwest except drugs and tree-hugging?

How serious of a matter is this? One TV station even linked to Josh’s myspace, which appears to have been cleaned up over the weekend. Want to know who is happiest with this arrest? Anna Nicole Smith�s corpse. In at least one section of the country, she didn�t matter this weekend.

We�re taking a pounding via email from college hoops fans who have enjoyed mocking our Gonzaga pick. Fire away, funnyboys. We’ll just have to find a new Final 4 underdog. Does Marquette count?

Oh, and baseball previews start next week, and we�ve got some pretty asinine stuff planned, so save some vitriol for then, too.
