Big stuff coming up this week at CougCenter

Just wanted to give you all a little heads up as to what you can expect from us this week, which is a pretty big and important week in the world of Cougar athletics.

I'll be bringing you my usual Pac-10 Weekend Wrap sometime later today, and if I get too tired of grading and need a break, I might also have another post for you on the basketball team's lack of leadership and how that's exacerbating the experience issue. Regardless, you'll see that post sometime this week.

Of course, the reason I need to denote that previous post as being about the basketball team is because this is the week that letters of intent come rolling in for football, and that represents the single greatest asset of Cougar football right now -- hope.

We're going to be ready, doing it up right with what we figure will be the most extensive coverage you find anywhere on the Internet. Scout links to Scout stuff, Rivals links to Rivals stuff, and ESPN links to ESPN stuff ... but we can link to all of it, and pull out what we think is the most important and relevant information for you to know. If there's video or information out there on a recruit, you'll find it here.

We'll also have a way to post the news as it comes rolling in throughout the day so that you never have to leave CougCenter to find out what's going on. It's going to be that cool.

Also, we'll have plenty of breakdown of the class afterward, when we'll ...

• Cull all the analysis of the class once it's finalized and pass along what others are saying. 
  
• Have a special signing day edition of the podcast for you on the site on Thursday. (In addition to the regular podcast, which we'll have on the site tomorrow.)
  
• Unveil Grady's second annual Elite Eight, in which he highlights eight players to keep an eye on from this class.

And, of course, we won't forget about what figures to be an enormous week for hoops. This team really needs a sweep of the Arizona schools to get this thing back on course, and we'll have thoughts on that as well.

So, all in all, a big week for us. We hope you'll be around here plenty to experience it all.
