Our identify from 2005 to 2009 was as big fish in little pond (same as in the 80' and 90's), good team who could compete for their conference and conference mates thought of as the "one to beat". We were, what Boise has since become.
Our identify as Independent has been... Nothing. We have no identify. "Getting back" to what we were is NOT possible as Independent. We must transform into something we've never been and don't have the resources, coaching, recruiting or push from the top to achieve.
