U of Idaho back to Big Sky?

I highly doubt them ever coming back to the Big Sky. I'm not sure where they'll end up, but I don't think it'll be in the Sky.
 
The Big Sky is the best fit for Idaho I don't see it ever happening. Maybe they will go Sun Belt for football and Big West for other sports.
 
I don't really see them coming back. Not for football, anyway....but if the WAC goes away it might make sense for them to be an affiliate member in the Sun Belt of something and put their olympic sports in a western conference to cut down on travel costs.

On another note, the BSC should have started taking affiliates a long time ago; they might have had a good shot of nabbing Seattle U and Denver.

I agree, another good affiliate would be UVU for basketball. Especially since UVU has expressed interest in creating football

I thought I read somewhere that UVU just received WAC membership, along with Seattle, Denver, and another school I can't remember. It'd be cool if they started football, but could Utah support another FCS team?

Utah Valley has not recieved Wac membership yet, they have just been mentioned as a possible basketball addition.

On the subject of Utah being able to support another FCS school, Im pretty sure they could, Utah is already supporting 6 division 1 schools. (Utah, BYU, USU, WSU, SUU and UVU)
