Well, his handle's not JDIdaho.

No but he does list location as NO and Idaho and had a couple of relatives go there.
Am thinking the whole Vandal Nation is going a little nuts. Have seen weird references of all sort of things on the Realignment board and others. Normally with some Idaho fan claiming the Sun Belt is going to take the whole Big Sky in and let them become FBS then leave. Think it is a cross between Idaho fans feeling they will be out of the SBC within a few years and them wanting to go to the Big Sky as an FBS conference and being King there.
Here is an example:

Why would you change or put a seal saying University of Louisiana if Tulane didn't feel threaten by our recent success.

It's just a few people yanking our chains. If you say the University of Louisiana around here 99% of people know you're talking about the college located in Lafayette, Louisiana. They do have a few very old crests around the campus with the University of Louisiana on it. I would be very surprised to see the admin pushing a name they gave up 100 years ago when the have a recognized brand in Tulane.

"Idaho has to leave the Sun Belt per the exit arrangement by 2015, although there is a two year clause to stay through 2017. Starting in 2018, there is no chance that Idaho will be part of the Sun Belt in football."

Does such an agreement exist?

Then this leads me to believe that Missouri State maybe slated as the replacement for Idaho. Plus we could pick up UTA fooball in 2020.
