Two things could be happening--

(1) yum typically has a delay built into it of a couple days before it 
refreshes the repo cache when the repo has been changed, and thus may not have 
detected the new repo is there.
(2) yum update could be failing for some reason--if you have a stock system 
there will be e-mail in your root account saying why.

My systems got the 7.5 updates yesterday May 11.

At least that's what I get on one system. The other is still declaring 7.3:

[... /etc]$ cat /etc/yum/vars/slreleasever
7.3

Shouldn't that read 7.x or something else if it's really following 7x?
