But it took some interesting zigs and zags along the way, particularly toward the end when he let the audience in on some of his more interesting plans for the future, including a rethink of one of the most ubiquitous articles of clothing out there.

The Zags are the measuring stick for every aspiring basketball school in the country; ask pretty much any mid-major coach about their model for success—and I asked several over the course of the season—and they will inevitably mention Few and Gonzaga.

The physical play appeared to grind the Zags down, as they seemed less interested in moving their feet and began reaching more on defense, and their offensive diversity and ball movement were reduced to seeking out their N.B.A. prospects: Rui Hachimura and Brandon Clarke.

In fact, Saint Mary's, which returns four starters from a squad that lost to Arizona 69-60 in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, was picked to finish ahead of the Zags in the WCC preseason coaches poll, receiving nine out of 10 first place votes.

If Alfonso Cuaron were directing this game, a camera would probably follow the ball—fixed, close—as it zigs and zags through Westbrook's immaculate handle, eventually drifting out of Westbrook's hands, then rotating 180 degrees to be greeted by the grinning, Snidely Whiplash clutches of Steven Adams.

The plot zigs and zags and sometimes accelerates in the direction of genuine hilarity — when Teddy takes a job at a fast-food restaurant called Christian Chicken, whenever Mr. Malco opens his mouth or Ms. Rajskub blinks her eyes — only to downshift into sloppy, easy jokes and gags.

Another of his cornerstone proposals — his campaign pledge of a "total and complete shutdown" of Muslim newcomers plus the deportation of 11 million undocumented immigrants across a border wall paid for by Mexico — has been subjected to endless qualifications as he zigs and zags in pursuit of middle-ground voters.

The Zags may have been bullied — and not quite at full strength — last season, but they stood firm enough on Thursday night, turning back the rugged, determined Seminoles, 72-58, to advance to the West Region final on Saturday against third-seeded Texas Tech, which dominated second-seeded Michigan, 63-44.

No. 14 Gonzaga blows away Bryant A combination of a considerable size advantage, torrid shooting from the floor and constant trips to the free-throw line by No. 14 Gonzaga produced a lopsided result as the Zags walloped Bryant 109-70 on Friday night at the McCarthey Athletic Center in Spokane, Wash.

And given such a large sample of strong performance, when the 'Zags obliterated all comers this season, pundits took note: the Associated Press (AP) ranked them first in the country for a month after they went undefeated in their first 27 games, and the NCAA's selection committee assigned them one of the four coveted top regional seeds.

Just as impressively, the Zags held the Gamecocks to 13-of-17.33 shooting around the rim, which was both Collins and senior big man Przemek Karnowski: Collins averaged four blocks per 40 minutes this season, and his 9.6 percent block rate was in the top-30 nationally—good numbers for a skill that Collins admits he has only started to develop.

Will we in retrospect judge that the zig-zags from "Little Rocket Man is going to be totally destroyed" to "He's a smart cookie and I think we have good chemistry," from "fire and fury" to "OK, I'll meet him and I'll meet him next month," are we going to conclude that was the secret sauce that solved the North Korean nuclear problem?

The 13th-ranked Zags played seven games over a 17-day stretch that began by winning two of three games in four days in the PK80 Invitational followed by home wins over Incarnate Word and No. 25 Creighton, a neutral-court loss to No. 4 Villanova (38.33-72) in the Jimmy V Classic at Madison Square Garden and ending with the road win over the Huskies.

The action of the arm is amplified by the saint's kneeling left leg, which seems to project his body forward, a far more dynamic pose than the seated position that a quick reading might suggest (the robe falling from his left shoulder and draped over his elbow seems to take the shape of a leg in repose, creating a solidity and symmetry that is undercut by the actual leg as it zags backward like a cocked trigger).

Mr. Obama's long view of history and the optimism (combined with a stirring reminder of the hard work required by democracy) that he articulated in his farewell speech last week are part of a hard-won faith, grounded in his reading, in his knowledge of history (and its unexpected zigs and zags), and his embrace of artists like Shakespeare who saw the human situation entire: its follies, cruelties and mad blunders, but also its resilience, decencies and acts of grace.
