Big East adding 5 teams

    CBS tv contract will apparently be addressed for Navy.

    schedule challenges with Notre Dame, Army and Air Force will be addressed.

    No $10 million buy out addressed but by Navy joining any other team leaving will have to pay the $10 million buy out.

    “...We’re breaking away from a lifelong commitment as an independent and we have a better television deal than a lot of conferences,” Gladchuk told CBSSports.com last month. “We can’t do that without a mutual understanding with the Big East. The good news is [Big East commissioner] John [Marinatto] has been receptive of talking this though.”..."
