Curious why Idaho is the host. WSU has been the host in the past. Who makes these decisions?

What a great weekend in Portland. What I've been wondering since Thursday night, is have we turned the corner? Are we a one-year-wonder? The team we fielded against a very good opponent was talented, athletic, and fairly deep. We weren't out of our league. While I loved the grit our '04 NCAA team showed, this team has what it takes to continue the momentum. With a little more size inside, and a little more defense, I think we have the ingredients for an exceptional future. So proud of our program.

Only reason the 04 team lost momentum was the loss of Ray Giacoletti. He had pieces in place (Matt Nelson, Axton coming back, guards weren't great, but had Stuckey redshirting. And Bekkering would have been a beast under Giac. That team was ready to explode the next year or two.

This team could face the same challenges if hayford leaves... Anybody hearing if he's looking? I'm assuming Utah St, Nevada and San Diego, possibly?
