Jazzyvandal: Idaho Sports Belong In WAC

The money in the Big Sky is just not there.
Just look at the amount of revenue a WAC team gets verses a Big Sky team. WAC teams get bowl money, more sponsorships, more donations, etc., etc. I do not want Idaho to play in the Big Sky. I won't watch the games, maybe for exception of Montana. The other teams do not interest me at all. Yes, I agree, losing does lower morale. However, Idaho has won at this level. It just makes me mad the administration didn't take advantage of it. The other non-revenue sports do pretty good in the WAC such as volleyball, cross country, track, etc. This is just Idaho's third year in the WAC. Interestingly enough, the other new WAC members aren't winning a lot of football games either. When Idaho has some stability in the program, they will win more games. Let's face it, Idaho hasn't had stability in a long time/jazzyvandal.
