can't see the whole article darn insider privileges. My guess is that it could be true. Once UofL and Rutgers go in 2014 the BE will need some non-revs Slu figures to fill up those sports nicely and the rumor for a long time was 10 then 12 in 2014 (as much as i hoped it was wrong). The playing time is pretty sure though. St. Louis drops 5 players next year so there should be some solid minutes left on the table in '14. Looks like a solid decision.

What sports do you think Louisville and Rutgers will need replacements for? I don't think the loss of those two will change which sports have at least 6 and which do not.
