College Of Idaho Restoring Football

The College of Idaho will welcome football back to its campus, a move college officials announced today would establish the only small college football program in the state of Idaho. The Board of Trustees approved the reinstatement of the College’s football team at its May 10-11 meeting, and the team is expected to begin play during the fall 2014 season. The Board stressed the desirability of conference affiliation in its vote, and President Marv Henberg and Athletic Director Marty Holly have been invited to a June meeting of Frontier Conference Presidents and Athletic Directors to pursue an application as an associate member to the conference, where C of I would compete in football only/Idaho Press Tribune.

Question: Did the College of Idaho make the right move in bringing back football?
