The league should try and look into Navy as a football only member.

The problem I have with Boise is the distance. That just sets up some serious travel nightmares. Especially if it comes down to sending the football team, mens and womens basketball teams, mens and womens soccer, softball, baseball, the chess team out to Boise, Idaho every year.

Would never happen in a million years. 

Why ?

Think of the travel expenses. Boise isn't exactly the easiest place to get to, especially during the winter.

Because ...

So again ... would never happen in a million years.

Any additions to the conference should be in the south.

I'd love to schedule a series with Boise St, but I want some conference rivals that are within driving distance.

So you are saying you would rather have UCF ?  To many BCS schools in FL now without adding them.

I like the navy idea but they want to be independent like ND.

I think they were talking football only.

football only would be cool. Geographically, and given our conference name, it would be rediculous.

Just got done reading Brian Bennet and one poster asked the question " Why not extend an offer to Boise St ?". 

I assume BB's reply was that it made absolutely no sense ...
