Supposedly Mark Blaudschun will have a follow up article relatively soon.
As an aside, what is transpiring has followed with relative rigidity the process outlined by the Big 12. The target schools sit and wait. Contact is made. Negotiations begin.
For example, the Temple AD used remarkably similar language as the UConn AD over the weekend.

UConn AD preparing pitch, waiting to hear from Big 12 about interest
"But Benedict said he has no plans to pick up the phone and call Bowlsby or head to Texas with a PowerPoint presentation.
He said it's his understanding that the Big 12 will reach out to those it knows have an interest."

So it appears that UConn has been contacted. Rumors over on the BYU board that contact with that school has been initiated. Perhaps Cincy and Houston might be next.
