Pete Thamel is now reporting the following (I hope it's not accurate):

"THE BIG EAST At the Big East’s meeting in New York on Tuesday, one of the main themes was not acting rashly. For the 2012 and 2013 football seasons, the Big East will have 10 members. Pittsburgh and Syracuse will leave in June 2014. The league requires 27 months’ notice to exit, a rule that none other than the Pittsburgh chancellor, Mark Nordenberg, helped install after seeing how harmful the quick exits of Miami and Virginia Tech were to the conference.
The Big East’s first look will be to add Navy and Air Force as football-only members. Those are the only colleges that all the presidents agreed would be valuable additions. Contact could be made with them as early as the end of this week. (Army is happy as an independent.) "
