  • Big Sky Story

    Bison_Kent's latest article is out over at I-AA.org. It deals with the Big Sky and their expansion plans. Good reading.

    Very well written article. I think if we are patient the Big Sky could still be an option. I would really like to see all three former NCC schools get in. IMHO the Big Sky is the best option for us when taking into account the entire athletic program.

      Re: Big Sky Story

      On other boards I have asked UNC folks why they are not working hard to get into the Big Sky, they are such a geographic fit.  

      They have said that they want to go to a Conf. that has Baseball.  Apparently they were a Baseball Power in the past.  They have told me that they are still in the Top 10 (Top 15 or something along those lines) in D-I Baseball tournament appearances.  They also would be one of two D-I baseball schools in Colorado (I think the other is USAFA).  So baseball is the driving reason that UNC wants to get into the Mid-Con and play football in the GWC.

      It seems crazy to me to have baseball drive this decision for them, but that is what they tell me.  I would love for them to join the Big Sky with us, they would love for us to join the Mid-Con/GWC with them.  It should be interesting to see how it all shakes out.
