D-I teams that shouldn't be

Idaho... tops this list for me... Hell the Vandals should cut their loses and return to the Sky... In all honesty I don't think Idaho could beat any of the top Big Sky teams. North Texas, New Mexico State, Buffalo, Florida Atlantic (all of the teams from the Sun Belt)... Of course Utah State.

Utah State tops the list for me, and I agree with Idaho, NM state and the rest of your list. How cool would it be to kick out Sac, UNC-Bears and add USU uof idaho and NM State?

Idaho totally should be in the SKY.

Big Sky realignment: I was reading on the UM board about possible scenarios of realignment... For some reason, most of the UM faithful believe they should be DI, HA!!! Anyway, there are a number of DI programs that are probably close to losing their status (Idaho, New Mexico State, Utah State, North Texas, Rice, many others) and its interesting to hypothosize about who would want to join the sky. Automatically, I think Idaho needs to cut their losses and rejoin the Sky... At least they wont be last in Basketball, thats reserved for Sac. Footballl....they did beat 0-5 ISU, like MSU (barely). Anyway, some UM faithful thought Central Washington would be a good fit... All I've got to say is Terrible!!! UC-Davis, Cal-Poly, and SUU should all be considered before a DII. North Dakota and South Dakota have also been mentioned, with the possibility of San Diego (just reinstated football)... What do you all think.

Anyone else remember the days when Boise State was in the Big Sky? Say what you want about Boise State now, but they always had a ton of fans at Weber's home games. That's a pretty big trip to make just to watch a game, and they routinely made it. Good fans up there. You gotta respect that.
