#UH's Big East invitation will be for all sports. Could take effect as early as the 2013 football season. #uhcougars

Holy cow...

It's true. Let's see if they reject it or give the Alliance the ol' college try. 03-phew

Can someone make sense of all of this? A lot of this just does not seem to add up.

Is this like the invite that UCF got last week and then they had their meeting together......and now UCF is just waiting on their "formal" invite?

Agreed. By far my preference of C-USA schools. This is a good move.

Good if true but I will believe it when it is finally finished. Lets get the invites out to the other candidates especially the all sports ones. Nothing is going to be announced prior to the basketball conference media day meeting on Wednesday. They don't want to overshadow the basketball with a football announcement.

I imagine it's this. Basically, you're in, but we'll announce it all together at a later date.

Houston message boards are blowing up right now. Their local fox station is reporting it as well.

Our local guy Mark Berman has reported it and he is dead on solid with his news about UH. Of course I won't let myself get too excited until the ink is dry, but I am pretty dang excited about the current news. We would be proud to join the Big East ASAP!

should have announced them all together, but I guess in the age of twitter secrets just can't be kept for long...

we all know UCF is in too... what's great is this means dominos will start to fall fast now. Finally!

Maybe the BE finally woke up and decided to slow it down on that one.

Orlando is currently making preparations for a grand parade once UCF sends out their acceptance letter to the BE. That day will now be celebrated every year; kids will be let out of school early, and city offices will close for a day of celebration known as "HOLY CRAP FINALLY DAY!!!"
