COUGARS

The official, for-real Pac-12 Media Day, in all of its capitalized glory, doesn't commence until Friday in Los Angeles (or Culver City, if you're into specificity).

We'll be in attendance and will pass along the usual fare, but also wanted to point your attention in the direction of ESPN's so-called "car wash" of Pac-12 coaches on Wednesday.

Essentially, the conference's football coaches are all in Bristol on Wednesday and Thursday for a fairly expansive tour of ESPN's many outlets.

Mike Leach, along with five other coaches, is scheduled to go through said car wash on Wednesday. The other half will buzz through on Thursday before heading back to the west coast.

Here's Leach's itinerary (and a link to the whole thing), which you will miss if for some reason you prefer to sleep until noon on Wednesdays:

10:00 a.m. ET/7:00 a.m. PT – SportsCenter Tonight radio show

10:15 a.m. ET/7:15 a.m. PT – GameDay Radio

10:30 a.m. ET/7:30 a.m. PT – ESPN.com Chat

11:20 a.m. ET/8:20 a.m. PT – First Take

12:40 p.m. ET/9:40 a.m. PT – Highly Questionable

1:20 p.m. ET/10:20 a.m. PT – SportsCenter

2:20 p.m. ET/11:20 a.m. PT – College Football Live

2:40 p.m. ET/11:40 a.m. PT - ESPN social media shoot

(As this story notes, Leach's segment with Skip Bayless on First Take likely qualifies as the day's primary entertainment.)
