It was pretty nuts in 2003, but the info came at us differently.  It was almost strictly message board rumors.  There were posters who (reportedly) had high-level contacts that would filter out to their school's message board and eventually out to the other boards.  The media would not release anything back in those days without a solid source.  Now they're pushing any rumor they can get their hands on so they can be "first".  Cuse had a source through one poster (I think it was rlbees?).  There was also the "Maryland mole" - some contact inside the Maryland AD or exec suite that was getting scoops.  There were a few others out there but I don't recall the handles.  When the first rumors went out, it was Miami, Cuse and BC - which was exactly what a few insiders had communicated.  Once that got out we had politicians involved, law suits and changes in the candidate schools.  I had a closet-style work office and I recall spending many hours over the summer reading posts and refreshing.  It was not very productive.
