Vandals close out year on a Positive Note!

Game Report Posted: May 04, 2016 07:22
Albequerque NM - Idaho Vandals Head Coach Mike Blackwell quickly assembled his team in their locker room for the last post-game speech of the year. A 4-8 record might not be much for most programs across the country, but for the University of Idaho Football Team that doubles the combined win total from the last three seasons.
"We're proud to have our leaders begin new traditions," Blackwell said to his team. "We have proven that Idaho Football does belong in the FBS and in the Sun Belt," he continued.
The Sun Belt will be the big test as Idaho will look to see it's strength of schedule increase. The Conference will also put bowl eligibility back on the plate. The Sun Belt passed through all final paperwork and officially declared the University of Idaho a conference member on Thursday.
Many students were teary eyed as they looked to see many of their elder brethren leave football forever. There are no potential professional players from rhe UofI in this years NFL draft.
Senior Danny Morton said, "it has been an honor leading you guys. The past few months has taught me more about what it takes to succeed. That's not something I thought was possible with Idaho Football until recently."
Patrick Wright, Stephen Thomas, and Andrew Watkins had big smiles and seemed to be taking in the ambiance one last time.

It's time to get your face paInt and beer koozies out. College football officially kicks off tonight, with the majority of teams not playing their games until this Saturday. Conference transfers for all requests were denied this season, however several transfers (including BYU, New Mexico St. and Idaho were approved for 2014.
Conference realignment for some teams, including the Air Force Academy was pending a ruling by a Congressional Comittee. The case is being heard becaus of Private vs. Public conferences operating amongst each other. The ruling may influence Programs that are private and identify as being religious.
Those decisions aren't due until November. So for now, let's get the summer wound down and get fall officially going! It's time for football!!!
