The Israeli military said Iran has fired missiles at Israel, and air raid sirens sounded across the country as residents take shelter.FILE - The official NCAA March Madness game rests on the Pac-12 logo on the court prior to the game between the Kansas Jayhawks and the Michigan Wolverines during the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament at Galen Center on March 23, 2024 in Los Angeles, California.

Gonzaga athletic director Chris Standiford said talks with the Pac-12 progressed "earnestly” last weekend and the school formally applied for membership Monday night — it was unanimously approved.

The Pac-12 began to restock for a 2026 relaunch last month by nabbing the five schools from the Mountain West to join Washington State and Oregon State, the only two Pac-12 schools left after a dramatic round of realignment took effect this summer.
