NCAA Conference Musical Chairs

Joining the Big Sky would drop Idaho from the highly competitive Football Championship Subdivision. But Fullerton says the Vandals could still play in a competitive league.

Nice job, Sporting News.

If the Mountain West takes NMSU but shuts Idaho out in the cold, they're gonna go on my shit list. That would be some big time bullshit to take in NMSU but give a giant middle finger to Idaho.

Unless New Mexico suddenly becomes a supporter of NMSU, I don't see that happening. Though I also don't 100% understand why you're blaming the Mountain West for this ... there's a lot more blame to go around than for the MW. The Big East and MW are just trying to survive at this point, and the WAC simply became the meat for the vultures.
