The funny thing is, donations are down, but they're not nearly as far down as they will be when Idaho actually drops. The hit will be far worse at that point.
I wonder if this is the prelude to the University of Idaho dropping football. Vandals donors, you'd better be working on how to force out Chuck, IMO, if you want football to continue.
I obviously do want football, but dropping the sport altogether makes more sense for the school than moving to the Big Sky. FBS is difficult, but the finances of scholarship FCS are ridiculous and the marketing value is nonexistent. And the ongoing PR and political problems this move is generating within the state for the university are costing dearly.
