WTF is with Idaho in the Sun Belt?
The WAC stopped sponsoring football starting last year (2013) after losing most of their football members. Idaho and New Mexico State were the leftovers, and they competed as independents last year before joining the Sun Belt for football only.
ETA: New Mexico State is still in the WAC for everything else, but Idaho moved to the Big Sky.

I always thought that Notre Dame would have wound up in the Big 10 when the dust settled.
Bad blood exists between Notre Dame and a few B1G teams, namely the Michigan schools. The hierarchy of the Big Ten has always acted as if it was in Notre Dame's best interests to be in the B1G, rather than the other way around.
As a result, the B1G burned their bridges permanently. I once had a big-time ND booster tell me, in all seriousness, that he would rather see Notre Dame STOP PLAYING FOOTBALL than join the B1G. And he stated that many Notre Dame fans feel the same way.
I believed him.

Also, WTF is with Idaho in the Sun Belt?
They were a previous member, along with NM State. When Troy, FAU, FIU, and one more I can't remember all moved up and were finally FBS members after transitioning from FCS, NM State and Idaho left. And with North Texas, FAU, FIU, MTSU, and WKU leaving, the Sun Belt is grasping at straws to have enough members to have a conference in football.
