Yeah, that whole thing at Idaho really played out weirdly, and badly. I do feel for you. I worked with a guy for many years that was a RB at Idaho. He shares your pain.At this point there have to be at least 20 schools that have moved up since the divisions were renamed to FCS and FBS. Idaho is the only one that has ever dropped in that time and they will be the only team to ever drop. No other school has a president ignorant enough or an AD incompetent enough to make this decision.
If anything there really needs to be 3 divisions in D1. FBS, G5 and top tier FCS, and bottom tier FCS. People forget that 3 conferences in FCS football either play with 0 scholarships or less than 20.
And then there's one FCS team who thought all their issues at the FBS level were due to the level of competition and not due to bad coaching hires, poor facilities, and inept administrators. Nope, it's just the level of competition. Drop down and it's easy winning! Fucking morons.
Sorry....getting off topic. I'm going to go drink myself to death now.
Again, I'd be entirely for splitting off the G5's and retooling that however they want, but it's not going to happen when they are getting $87m/year to split among themselves from the CFP money pool.
