RE: Why are people calling for Idaho to drop down and not NMSU?

This will sound totally a-holish, but Idaho really doesn't bring much to the table.
With NMSU, I think most folks believe that the Sun Belt will be bringing in the Olympic sports, of which their basketball provides value.
I don't think that is the case with Idaho.
Or in a different way, NMSU fits better in the Sun Belt than Idaho does. Personally? I like Idaho. But you guys still don't really fit in the Sun Belt. You are a massive geographic outlier. You don't raise the profile of the conference in football (or if we brought in all sports, basketball or baseball).
I really don't want to see you guys drop to FCS. I would like it if you guys did, however, find a new home.
