In an effort to secure the league's football future, the Big East Conference will reportedly vote on Friday on a proposal to raise the fee to exit the league -- that according to a Sporting News report late Thursday evening.
According to the report, the proposal would require a school to pay three times its annual share of league television revenue in order to leave the conference, which would make it between $15-17 million under the current Big East deal.
For the proposal to pass, 75 percent of the current league members must approve it. Sources told the Sporting News that Louisville may decline to participate in the call.
