Many thanks to Vince for passing along my note and taking care of the morning links in his daily post so I could get to sleep before the witching hour was over. But now it's time for our daily roundup of Pac-12 news and I don't want to make you wait any longer so let's get to those links.

They're right after the jump.

…

-- The reason I was in Spokane so late was that I flew back from the Pac-12's media day. Our coverage of the event includes a story on Washington State senior DaVonte Lacy and a Pac-12 notebook.
