RE: Revisiting Vandal football

People were handing out free football tickets for the UI / Arkansas State
game all over town last week.  Nobody wanted them.

The Idaho Statesman collected comments on Tom Cable and UI football:

Admittedly, I am fully aware that any chance of Idaho actually returning to 
the Big Sky is an absolute zero.  We're in Division 1 to stay, unless the 
NCAA forces us out, which is not beyond the realm of possibility.  And Tom 
Cable will quite probably be back next year.  He has another year left on 
his contract, which the University can ill afford to swallow.  And frankly, 
who would be interested in assuming the reins of that program right now?  
Chris Tormey (a Vandal indeed, he played for Idaho) saw the handwriting on 
the wall.  That's why he took an essentially lateral move to Nevada-Reno.  
I'm a Vandal too, Tom.  I love them right now the way you can love a family 
member who needs serious help.  Call it tough love.
