The Syracuse.com forum and the Louisville Rivals Board have posts indicating Louisville has received a formal invite to the Big 12.

Unconfirmed rumor from some Wichita TV station.

Every report of this from TV, paper, internet etc is all coming from the same original place which was a Greg Swaim tweet this past weekend saying Lville was offered Friday.

Today Swain continues to say that Lville was offered, and that once they accept then Cincinnati and BYU will be offered next.

If that happens that will really put UConn, WVU, USF and Rutgers in a tough position, not to mention TCU.

thought this could be true... until the part about Cincy.

Yeah who'd want a school that gives you entry into a football recruiting hot bed like Ohio. UC and Louisville are tied at the hip and have been for years. They are both the little brother in their state.

Cincy is in the discussions according to Swaim but I haven't seen him say they will be offered.

any word if west virgina asked for an invite?? maybe they can hit the triple. :noidea:

If you are still on the fence about us joining the ACC, just read the Uconn, Lville and WVU boards since that Suday Pitt and SU were announced as ACC. I feel bad for these fans because if it were us I'd be staring at the internet, sipping rum and loosing my sheet every 5min over us being left out.
Its hard to imagine how much it has to suck for these fan bases.

I am more surprised by BYU and the lack of TCU...
