From MHver3 Twitter (FWIW, if anything)

[Coach Bill Lewis]

1. Colorado State lobbying Nbe hard.

2. Took 3 votes to get Tulane into Nbe.

3. ESPN wants ACC to take both Louisville and UConn.

4. Virginia wants in B1G and is talking with them, following path of MD.

5. SEC sitting back and will follow path used for TAMU and Mizzouri.

6. Florida State and Miami want in B12 badly. FSU is angry because Virginia denying they are talking with B1G but FSU knows they are.

7. BYU was about to accept Nbe invitation but pulled out after Rutgers bolted. ESPN was going to let Nbe buy out BYU's contract.

8. St. Johns and Georgetown introduced vote to dissolve Big East. Fell short by 2 votes.

9. Nbe tv contract falling apart; very lucky to get $5 million.

10. B12 expansion committee evaluating; might recommend as many as four additions. (Pitt, Clemson, FSU, Miami).
