Big East Will Seek Dismissal Of WVU Lawsuit Opposing Bylaws

The Big East will seek a dismissal of a West Virginia Univ. lawsuit "aimed at invalidating conference bylaws and speeding up the Mountaineers' departure for the Big 12." Big East attorneys said that they plan to file a motion Monday in Monongalia County (W.Va.) Circuit Court, asking judge Russell Clawges to "either dismiss the case or put it on hold while a parallel lawsuit plays out in Rhode Island," where the conference is based. Attorney Benjamin Block said that if the judge "believes there are grounds to move forward," the case "should be heard in Rhode Island" (AP, 12/1).
