The chancellor or president rom a Football Championship Subdivision institution that intends to petition for reclassification to the Football Bowl Sub-division, per Bylaw 20.4.2, shall submit to the national office written notice of the institution’s intention to reclassify and a completed application. The notice and application shall be received in the national office (by mail or electronic transmission) not later than June 1 two years prior to the August 1 when the institution intends to reclassify to the Football Bowl Subdivision. Any form received after June 1 shall be postmarked not later than May 25. The notice and application shall be accompanied by a $5,000 fee and a strategic plan that addresses the Division I philosophy statement (see Bylaw 20.9.2) and the institutional performance program requirements. If the institution fails to qualify for membership in the Football Bowl Subdivision, the application fee shall be refunded, less any expenditure for educational costs related to the reclassification process. So, according to NCAA bylaws the Big Sky teams moving up better get moving. They have till the end of this month to get their application in. Thanks for the help!

The FBS transition process begins the next season after their paperwork is in. After two years, the applicant is fully FBS if all goes to plan. No Big Sky school willike apply this year as you and bizon trolls seem to be implying. Idaho will hedge on FCS soon, probably this week.

The Sicatoka Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Makes you wonder if he was leveraging Utah (or someone else) and had to play the hand this far. I'd hate to think the man didn't do his own due diligence before accepting. That would be unprofessional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because one "crazy" thing happened doesn't mean every crazy prediction will happen. Had someone said the WAC would collapse and be on life-support, that wouldn't be crazy. If SV was just saying UND and some Big Sky teams will end up FBS, that's not crazy. The crazy part is the predictions and reasoning given for the teams moving up. It's crazy to think the NCAA cares so much about Idaho that they'll change a rule to allow Idaho's buddies to move up. It's crazy to now think Idaho announcing its move to FCS is only a PR stunt to gain financial support and in-turn cancel that down-move and instead invite six schools that have not publicly discussed a move to FBS in several years.

The Sicatoka Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Quote The University of Minnesota’s search for a new athletic director appears to be down to four semifinalists — interim AD Beth Goetz, Northern Illinois AD Sean Frazier, Penn State deputy AD Phil Esten and one undisclosed candidate — according to people familiar with the search. http://www.startribune.com/gophers-ad-search-narrowed-to-final-four-sources-say/378844131/ Could the "undisclosed" be ... (the recently reneged on MSU) Brennan? The STrib says it's not Gene Taylor (contrary to what The Forum thinks: http://www.inforum.com/sports/4029266-reports-gene-taylor-finalist-gophers-ad-job ) Quote Several candidates who were vetted by Turnkey in the initial phases of the search have yet to be contacted for formal job interviews, according to people familiar with their situations. That list includes former Gophers football standouts Pete Najarian and Bob Stein, Iowa deputy AD Gene Taylor, Mountain West commissioner Craig Thompson, WCHA commissioner Bill Robertson and U.S. Bank senior vice president David Gutzke.
