Yes, just saw the tweet come through, too. It looks like many tweeters or whatever they are called are now quoting you as "breaking the story."
Now, is there anything to this?

We are now reporting tweets from freshmen SMU students?
Although here is one from Kate from a couple days ago....
No need for SMU fans to worry about getting an official bid from Big East. It's about making sure BE's plan - & Boise State - comes through.

Well, you see, I was quite curious if there might be any
RELIABLE sources that might be able to confirm what these people were tweeting, since there were more than a couple. HENCE THE QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!!!! For instance, I know Dutch was pulling a little funny, but there are a few people on this board who I would probably believe if they came back and said, "why, yes, I got some information from so-and-so and this is true."

don't believe anything on twitter. too anonymous, and people retweet and it spreads like VD.
unless it's coming from an OFFICIAL SMU or OFFICIAL Big East twitter page, don't put much stock in it.
but i will say this. we will be getting the official invite from the BE within the week.

You're my hero Dutch. You should have your own dedicated website so you don't have to get dirty with the common folk!!!
that's not a bad idea.
