We are much more similar to Boise State than the dozens of programs that have failed moving up. And yes, Boise State is not even in a BCS conference.
Nobody said they couldnt be successful. The point in question is RESOURCES to make such a move if an opening became available as we all know that you have to be invited to a conference to move up. Resources as in MONEY where is it going to come from? 2300 Team makers were responsible for approx 2.5-3 million dollars this last year. How much more do you think you can squeeze out of that group? And thats just for schollies.
Question for you--why do people like you keep asking the same questions when people keep giving you the answers to your questions. Do you think the answers are going to change if you keep asking the same question over and over again.

When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.
It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.
