Drew Timme

LAS VEGAS — Julian Strawther hit the game-winning three-pointer to give Gonzaga a 79-76 win over UCLA in the Sweet 16 on Thursday night.

Drew Timme has been known to say the F-bomb on the air. He avoided it after Gonzaga moved on to the Elite Eight in March Madness.

I was like look, you guys asked me to come on, you know what I am & I haven’t changed. [March 24, 2023] After the Bulldogs took down UCLA on Thursday night to advance to the Elite Eight, Timme was interviewed again.

CBS's Lauren Shehadi asked Timme about his leadership tactics after the game, and the forward came very close to saying a very NSFW phrase on live television.

The men's and women's NCAA basketball tournaments have seen lots of cursing, including from Drew Timme. But Timme pivoted Thursday.

Everyone knew what Timme meant (well, at least down to a couple of different explicit possibilities). There’s always some cursing that winds up broadcast in sports, and some of that even happens in specific one-on-one post-game interviews on TV rather than just in what’s picked up on floor or field mics.

Drew Timme is one of the most polarizing players in college basketball, but like him or not, it's impossible to ignore his presence on and off the court.

Or maybe he wouldn’t, because with him, it is always a mystery. "With Drew you never know what is next," Few added. Come on, who wears mismatched socks and those head-scratching outfits, yet still possesses the kind of fiery intensity needed to thrive at this level? As a freshman, Timme benefited from battling against 2019-20 West Coast Conference Player of the Year Filip Petrusev in practice. It was indeed against UCLA, yet another Timme tournament masterpiece, even with a pair of missed free throws that briefly allowed UCLA to snatch back a late lead. For he is a player built for college basketball success, like others before him who were absolute standouts at this level but couldn’t have the same impact in the Association.
