I had assumed as much when the back and forth had begun with Boise and the Big West, but it seems clear that SDSU has used their olympic muscle (basketball especially!) to allow Boise State, in principle, to join the Big West Conference in olympic sports. This still has to clear a vote from the presidents, but it seems extremely likely that it will happen:

I also have to add that, no matter what some people might say about the new Big East, it feels really good to know that there are schools that are bending over backwards trying to get into our conference and play against our school. I hope that the new tv contract rewards their efforts, and ours...
