The Big Sky wants Idaho and Utah State......

They feel they are a better conference then the WAC minues BSU, Hawaii, Nevada and Fresno. They may be right! Check out this article by Brian Murphy.

I could see the Big Sky wanting San Jose State depending on what happens with the North Dakota nickname mess.

The end of the WAC could be near. If the big sky is able to lure UI, USU and possibly SJSU, they could take the WAC's place as an FBS conference. The WAC would then have work to do to become an FCS conference! :o

Josh Pacheco of ESPN Honolulu just did an interview w/ Big Sky commish Doug Fullerton. I missed the interview but the podcast should be up around 1:45 pm HST on the espnhonolulu.com website. Everyone is saying it was an awesome interview! Apparently he (Big Sky commish) was pretty bold in his thoughts about the Big Sky being a better conference then the new WAC!
