Still don't see anything on Idaho State or Eastern Washington. Apparently not much media attention in Pokey or Spokane. Did see articles on ISU volleyball and soccer, though. :roll: :?

Never fear, lifesapuntreturn, there will be some stories once practice starts. Part of the problem is that the Idaho State Journal (the Pocatello newspaper) only offers 2 or 3 stories on its website -- the powers that be want you to pay to see all of the stories online. It's a pain, especially for those of us outside the area. They have ran some good football/practice related stories, though, this summer. Another couple of places to see some good ISU write-ups from the last month or so are the Idaho State Journal blogs:
