The first domino in the rumored conference realignment may fall sooner than expected. High-ranking officials in the Big Ten Conference will meet tomorrow afternoon in Washington, D.C. to discuss expansion.
"The thinking among those in touch with Big Ten officials is that the league is likely to add at least three schools -- to end up with a 14- or 16-team league."
"Notre Dame remains Option A, though observers are flummoxed about the school's intentions because of seemingly divergent statements made by Athletic Director Jack Swarbrick." The article also mentions that the Big 10 may go after Rutgers, Pittsburgh, and Syracuse in the Big East Conference.
