at least he won't force the issue.

Thank goodness.
I know Idaho isn’t much, but you don’t want to go the route that Florida and Texas have in forcing their teams to play each other.
The administration(s) will take care of this, and we’ll still go to games.

i definitely don't want to denigrate this into talks of politics...
…but just based on his philosophy alone, wouldn’t he be against the idea anyway? (and, yes, i am aware that he did outright say so in the article.)

I know Dave Hensley
If he told Otter that he (Otter) has no power, I trust that Otter has no power.

i figured as much anyway.
i guess aside from the idaho legislature directly tying funding to either of the schools (i guess in this case mostly at bsu) there wouldn’t be much they could do. my point was, even if he (otter only) could do it, his political philosophy would prevent him from doing so. also, if the legislature did do that, i bet there would be a pretty big backlash from BSU and dUI fans alike.

Eh, both schools are public institutions
If Idaho voters want them to play each other, and a law is passed, that’s reasonable.
