Luicci appears to be a pretty credible guy that has good sources.

Now if we can assure Navy and Air Force, I'll be a happy panda. Toss in BYU for good measure and we got ourselves a more interesting football conference than the old Big East and C-USA ever were.

If he is credible I assume he means two 6 team divisions instead of two 12 team divisions.

BYU for Louisville would definitely be an upgrade IMO for football.

"DaveSittler Dave Sittler
Big 12 source: "In the end, West Virginia and Louisville will both be invited because it's the right thing to do."

Not a question of if but how. Some talk about taking one now, and the second next year

Hahaha-I'm sure that was a typo. If i'm not mistaken, Luicci was one ofthe first to confirm the "SMU to the Big East" rumors a couple of Friday nights ago.
