Morning links: Basketball signing day

Today is the beginning of the spring signing period for men's basketball and the Cougars are expected to add at least two new recruits.

Charles Callison and Viont'e Daniels – who we wrote a bit about here – are expected to sign national letters of intent today and it's possible the Cougars could still add a surprise. From what I gather, the Washington State is still looking to add a big, be it a transfer or recruit, from stateside or overseas.

On the football side, I wrote about freshman running back Keith Harrington today, an explosive Floridian who has looked like a standout for the Cougars, albeit inconsistently. I also have a report from yesterday's practice, where the pass rush was sublime and the offense was something less.

For today's baseball notebook I wrote about Gonzaga's pitching and how it's propping up a postseason push, along with notes on WSU and Whitworth.

Furthermore….

Jeff Nusser spotted a Grantland article that says Vince Mayle may be a better choice than another talented receiver with more baggage. … Washington WR/CB John Ross III participated in his first spring practice. …  Ted Miller profiles star Arizona linebacker Scooby Wright. … Utah receiver had his own personal pro day. … It was a rough year for Colorado football but at least the Buffalos performed well in the classroom. … USC will have another stacked roster next fall.
