The Sicatoka Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 Omaha made the moves to position themselves for Wichita State's MVC slot: - no football - better media market (gets the MVC back into Omaha after Creighton left) The other option, honestly, would be Denver (again, no football and media market; distance is DU's downfall) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised that Idaho has only had 4 years ever that they were good at football. I'm hoping that Idaho get beaten badly when they join the Big Sky just to prove that they never belonged in the FBS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdub27 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Press conference at 5:30 on a Friday (mountain time even!), the time when news is released to get the smallest reaction possible? Nothing of significance is coming out of this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will make an easier swap for Idaho, the Montanas, EWU Weber and UND in two months. CBU, GCU, UVU, Bake and Seattle would be a good geographic fit for the rest of the remaining Big Sky. At least CBU has a 6000 arena that should be soon done, unlike Sac St. Get with the program, guys!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how exactly is UND going to afford to go FBS given the recent financial shortfalls in the athletic budget? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
