Maybe there could be some compromise. It's not so bad flying commercial to Las Cruces (El Paso + bus ride), Fresno, San Jose or Nevada. It's Shreveport-DFW/Houston-Destination. Logan is a little worse, but still not too ridiculous. But getting to Boise and Moscow is insane. Why not fix it where we play a doubleheader at Moscow on Thursday night, doubleheader at Boise on Saturday, and be done with it? And charter one flight per year to get up there? Then have Boise and Idaho do the same thing at Tech and NMSU. While hosting a doubleheader isn't the ideal way to play Division I basketball, it would sure alleviate a lot of headaches in that situation.
