Anyone know why Big Sky Media Days moved from Park City to Spokane?

Let me guess, it's not as nice as Park city in anyway unless you want that gritty urban setting, so I will go for $$$$$$$$.
Sorry coaches.

Maybe a bone thrown to Idaho?

Because it cost less to stay at the Davenport and the Greyhound Bus Terminal is just down the street and there's a liquor store just a block up...

Go Big Sky go!

For precisely the same reason the bsc tournament was moved to reNO: It saved a couple member schools $117 in travel expenses, allowing them to balance their budgets.

Listen here smartazz...it was ACTUALLY $117.53. That rounds UP to $118. Insensative jerk!

Maybe it has something to do with EWUs $5.8m Athletic budget deficit. :lol:

It is all about $$$$. Glad it gave Everett something else to whine about.

I wouldnt' mind if Spokane replaced Boise as the host site for the basketball tournament. Road to Reno/Road to Boise is a joke.

For the tournament??
ok...1. At least half the driving time to Spokane from Missoula for starters...2nd... more accessible to Griz fans/Alum in the Seattle area 3.Plus Spokane has more liquor Stores and UM Alum/fans per capita than Boise...

Less sunshine though...

And the correct answer is ..........
Recreational marijuana. Boom.

You ever notice when passing a Cannabis shop, most the vehicles are from Idaho?

 

[BadlandsGrizFan]

Because the BigSky wanted to hold its media days in a city equally as shitty as the conference is!
