It was said last weekend that no official announcement would happen until after bball media day. This should surprise no one. That's why it was a call and not a video presser.

Marinatto: "Just one team needs to agree and exit fee agrees." That means Navy or Air Force on board, fee goes to $10M

Fatal flaw by BigEast. SEC smells their weakness, and will invite SMU within 24 hours.

Marinatto on C-USA/MWC merger effect on BE: "That's been on radar screen for long time. It hasn’t affected what were looking at in anyway."

Said Big East title game will be played in NYC.

I hope at yankee stadium instead of New meadowlands or whatever the hell it is called. If it is at the giants stadium the place will be empty.

SMU is going to the SEC for sure. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw SMU and SEC officials finalizing the deal at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Sounds awesome. Good idea. But will be cold, lol, compared to Orlando or Dallas.

Marinatto steadfast on not letting Pitt and Syracuse out of 27-month exit process. Even saying they've modeled a 14-team league.
