Boise State Gets Phone Call From the Big West Conference
How College Football Teams Are Arranged With Relegation
Over at SB Nation is relegation week for college football, and today's latest post has separated all of college football down to the NAIA level. There are seven tiers set up with teams currently in the conference they are, so Boise State and San Diego State are still in the Mountain West, and any independents such as BYU or Notre Dame are put into a league.
It is set up to be a geographical fit and due to the size of the info the tiers and map will be after the jump.
Former Four-Star Recruit Demar Dorsey To Play At Hawai'i In 2012
"Dorsey originally committed to the Gators, and was quite showy about his love for Gainesville during the Under Armour All America Game. He then decommitted from the Gators, visited West Virginia, USC, Florida State and Michigan, told sources he would commit to Florida State, and then committed to the Michigan Wolverines.
That didn't work out too well for Dorsey, as Michigan, despite accepting his commitment, denied his admittance. It may have had something to do with Dorsey's three felony charges. He then attempted to go to Louisville, but Louisville would not admit him due to his grades."
He will see if this works way out in Hawaii and away from the spotlight.

College Football Relegation Week!!!
Looks like the guys at SB Nation are trying to fill the dreadful months of college football with relegation talk within the sport. The link is to all the relegation coverage so check back often for updates.
My quick take is that it could work wonders if certain conferences are aligned regionally, and just keep the name of the conferences for non-football sports. So, the Mountain West could have a team like Boise State move up to the Pac-12 for football but all their other sports would always be housed in the MWC.
I'll add more later.

Insight Bowl is changing it's name: A Create-Your-Own-Bowl-Game Adventure
The Insight Bowl is getting a new name due to their sponsorship with Insight Enterprises ending. So here's your chance to have a little fun with a new name and corresponding sponsorship. I've given a few examples here so you can get started:
The Big Mack Bowl sponsored by Texas HC Mack Brown (note, the Big XII rep will always be Texas)
The Sedona Bowl sponsored by the city of Sedona
The Pirate Bowl sponsored by Mike Leach and Disney
The Animal Bowl sponsored by PetSmart
The Fly Whenever You Want bowl sponsored by US Airways (note, this bowl will be played in the US Airways center: Arena Football Rules)
The Peter Piper Pizza Bowl (special halftime guest Yanni)
The Sky Mall Bowl (this would have my favorite gift sets for the players)
The Coldstone Bowl (note: instead of using footballs, players must play with football ice cream cakes)
Let's see how many wacky and clever names come up...the winner will get bragging rights (and if you like you can submit your idea to that sponsor and see if they take you seriously!).
Cleverness and silliness are encouraged, however if you have a serious bowl name/sponsor throw it in!
