Member institutions are located in the western United States in the nine states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Utah, and Washington. Four affiliate members each participate in one sport. Two schools from California are football-only participants, and two schools from the Northeast participate only in men's golf.Contents1 History1.1 Fiftieth anniversary2 Members2.1 Full members2.2 Affiliate members2.3 Former members2.4 Membership timeline3 Sports3.1 Baseball3.2 Men's sponsored sports by school3.3 Women's sponsored sports by school4 Facilities5 Basketball5.1 Current NBA players5.2 Conference rivalries5.3 Non-conference rivalries6 Rivalries6.1 Protected football rivalries6.2 Conference6.3 Non-conference7 Commissioners8 Headquarters9 Big Sky championships9.1 Big Sky men's basketball9.2 Basketball championships (by school)9.2.1 NCAA Tournament9.3 Big Sky women's basketball9.4 Big Sky football titles9.5 Football championships (by school)9.6 All-time school records by wins for current teams9.7 Overall Big Sky Conference champions9.8 Football9.9 Basketball10 References11 External linksHistoryInitially conceived for basketball,[1] the Big Sky was founded 55 years ago in 1963 with six members in four states;[2][3] four of the charter members have been in the league from its founding, and a fifth returned in 2014 after an 18-year absence.The name "Big Sky" came from the popular 1947 western novel by A. B. Guthrie Jr.; it was proposed by Harry Missildine, a sports columnist of the Spokesman-Review just prior to the founding meetings of the conference in Spokane in February 1963,[4][5] and was adopted with the announcement of the new conference five days later.[2][3]Starting in 1968, the conference competed at the highest level (university division) in all sports except football (college division). The sole exception was Idaho, in the university division for football through 1977 (except 1967, 1968).[6]In 1974, half of the Big Sky's ten sports were dropped (baseball, skiing, swimming, golf, and tennis), leaving football, basketball, wrestling, track, and cross country.[7][8]Women's sports were added 30 years ago in 1988, moving from the women's-only Mountain West Athletic Conference (1982–88).Fiftieth anniversarySee also: Big Sky Conference 50 Greatest Male AthletesThe 2012–13 season marked the completion of a half century of athletic competition and a quarter century sponsoring women's collegiate athletics. Before the season the league introduced a new logo to celebrate this.The 25th season of women's athletics also marked a first for the league, as Portland State won the league's inaugural softball championship. From 1982 to 1988, women's sports were conducted in the Mountain West Athletic Conference.The Big Sky sponsors championships in sixteen sports, including men's and women's cross country, golf, indoor and outdoor track and field, basketball, and tennis. There are also championships in football, and in women's volleyball, soccer, and softball.[9]MembersFull membersInstitutionLocationFoundedJoinedEnrollmentNicknameColorsEastern Washington UniversityCheney, Washington1882198713,453Eagles University of IdahoMoscow, Idaho18891963, 2014[a 1]11,534Vandals Idaho State UniversityPocatello, Idaho1901196315,553Bengals University of MontanaMissoula, Montana1893196310,092Grizzlies[a 2] Montana State UniversityBozeman, Montana1893196316,069Bobcats Northern Arizona UniversityFlagstaff, Arizona1899197027,715Lumberjacks University of Northern ColoradoGreeley, Colorado1889200612,087Bears Portland State UniversityPortland, Oregon1946199628,241Vikings California State University, SacramentoSacramento, California1947199628,811Hornets Southern Utah UniversityCedar City, Utah189720127,656Thunderbirds Weber State UniversityOgden, Utah1889196327,949Wildcats ^ Idaho had been a charter member of the Big Sky in 1963, but left the conference in 1996.^ The Montana women's basketball team is known as the Lady Griz, but all other women's teams are known as Grizzlies.North Dakota left the Big Sky in 2018, with its non-football sports joining the Summit League.[10] The football team became an FCS independent for the 2018 and 2019 seasons, but continues to play a full Big Sky football schedule due to contractual commitments. In those seasons, football games against North Dakota will count in the Big Sky standings for their opponents. Afterwards, North Dakota will join the Missouri Valley Football Conference in 2020.[11]Affiliate membersInstitutionLocationFoundedJoinedTypeEnrollmentEndowment 2014)NicknameColorsPrimaryconferenceBig SkysportBinghamton University, SUNYVestal, New York19462014Public16,695$101,414,229Bearcats America EastMen's golfCalifornia Polytechnic State UniversitySan Luis Obispo, California19012012Public20,186$207,485,860Mustangs Big WestFootballUniversity of California, DavisDavis, California19052012Public35,415$968,230,000Aggies Big WestFootballUniversity of HartfordWest Hartford, Connecticut18772014Private7,025$146,113,000Hawks America EastMen's golfFormer membersInstitutionLocationFoundedJoinedLeftTypeEnrollmentNicknameSubsequent conference membershipBoise State UniversityBoise, Idaho193219701996Public22,678BroncosBig West (1996–2001)WAC (2001–2011)Mountain West (2011–present)California State University, NorthridgeNorthridge, California195819962001Public36,070MatadorsBig West (2001–present)Gonzaga UniversitySpokane, Washington188719631979Private7,764BulldogsWCC (1979–present)University of NevadaReno, Nevada187419791992Public18,227Wolf PackBig West (1992–2000)WAC (2000–2012)Mountain West (2012–present)University of North DakotaGrand Forks, North Dakota188320122018Public14,906Fighting HawksSummit League (2018–present)NotesGonzaga, which has not fielded a football team since 1941, was a charter member in 1963.Membership timelineFull members Assoc. members (football only) Full members (except football) Assoc. members (other sports) Other conference Other conferenceSportsEastern WashingtonIdahoIdaho StateMontanaMontana StateNorthern ArizonaNorthern ColoradoPortland StateSacramento StateSouthern UtahWeber StateBinghamtonCal Poly SLOUC DavisHartford – Full members – Only members for football – Only members for men's golfAs of the 2016–17 school year, the Big Sky sponsors championships in seven men's and nine women's NCAA sanctioned sports.[12] Each core member institution is required to participate in all of the 13 core sports. Men's core sports are basketball, cross country, football, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, and tennis. Women's core sports are basketball, cross country, golf, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, tennis, and volleyball.Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and UC Davis participate as football-only affiliates, otherwise participating in the Big West Conference. Binghamton and Hartford are affiliates in men's golf only, otherwise participating in the America East Conference. Before the 2014–15 school year, the latter two schools had participated in men's golf alongside five full Big Sky members in the single-sport America Sky Conference.[13] The return of Idaho brought the number of members participating in men's golf to six, which led to the Big Sky adding men's golf and absorbing the America Sky Conference.BaseballThe Big Sky is unusual among Division I all-sports conferences in not sponsoring baseball. The conference originally sponsored baseball in 1964, with all members participating. When Boise State and Northern Arizona arrived for the 1971 season, competition was split into two divisions of four teams each, with the winners in a best-of-three championship series.[14][15] Montana State[16] and Montana soon dropped the sport and by the 1973 season, only six teams remained but the divisions were kept, and Boise State moved over to the North Division for two years.[17]In May 1974, the Big Sky announced its intention to discontinue five of its ten sponsored sports. It retained football, basketball, cross-country, track, and wrestling, and dropped conference competition in baseball, golf, tennis, swimming, and skiing.[7][8] Of the eleven Big Sky baseball titles, four each went to Idaho (1964,'66,'67,'69)[18] and Gonzaga (1965,'71,'73,'74), and three to Weber State (1968,'70,'72).[19] Gonzaga won the final title in 1974 over Idaho State in three games, after losing the first game in Pocatello.[20] Southern division champion Idaho State chose to end its baseball program weeks following the conference's announcement,[21] and Gonzaga, Idaho, and Boise State joined the new Northern Pacific Conference (NorPac) for baseball in 1975.[22] Boise State and Idaho competed in the NorPac for six seasons, then discontinued baseball after the 1980 season.[23][24]In 2016, North Dakota announced on April 12 that it was their last baseball season.[25] As of 2017, only Northern Colorado and Sacramento State compete in the sport, both as affiliate members in the Western Athletic Conference (WAC).Teams in Big Sky Conference competitionSportMen'sWomen'sBasketball1111Cross country1111Football13-Golf711Soccer-10Softball-7Tennis1111Track and field (Indoor)1111Track and field (Outdoor)1111Volleyball-11Men's sponsored sports by schoolSchoolBasketballCrosscountryFootballGolfTennisTrack and field(indoor)Track and field(outdoor)Total SportsEastern WashingtonYYYNYYY6IdahoYYYYYYY7Idaho StateYYYNYYY6MontanaYYYNYYY6Montana StateYYYNYYY6Northern ArizonaYYYNYYY6Northern ColoradoYYYYYYY7Portland StateYYYNYYY6Sacramento StateYYYYYYY7Southern UtahYYYYYYY7Weber StateYYYYYYY7Totals111111+2[a]5+2[b]11111169+4^ Affiliates Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and UC Davis.^ Affiliates Binghamton and Hartford.Men's varsity sports not sponsored by the Big Sky Conference which are played by Big Sky schools:SchoolBaseballSkiingSoccerWrestlingMontana StateNoIndependentNoNoNorthern ColoradoWACNoNoBig 12Sacramento StateWACNoBig WestNoWomen's sponsored sports by schoolSchoolBasketballCrosscountryGolfSoccerSoftballTennisTrack and field(indoor)Track and field(outdoor)VolleyballTotal SportsEastern WashingtonYYYYNYYYY8IdahoYYYYNYYYY8Idaho StateYYYYYYYYY9MontanaYYYYYYYYY9Montana StateYYYNNYYYY7Northern ArizonaYYYYNYYYY8Northern ColoradoYYYYYYYYY9Portland StateYYYYYYYYY9Sacramento StateYYYYYYYYY9Southern UtahYYYYYYYYY9Weber StateYYYYYYYYY9Totals1111111071111111194Women's varsity sports not sponsored by the Big Sky Conference which are played by Big Sky schools:SchoolBeach volleyballGymnasticsRowingSkiingSwimmingIdahoNoNoNoNoWACMontana StateNoNoNoIndependentNoNorthern ArizonaNoNoNoNoWACNorthern ColoradoNoNoNoNoWACSacramento StateIndependentMPSFThe AmericanNoNoSouthern UtahNoMountain RimNoNoNoFacilitiesSchoolFootball stadiumCapacityBasketball arenaCapacityCal PolyAlex G.

Two days later, the Bengals led UNLV by a point at halftime, but lost by seventeen and finished at 25–5.Seeding was introduced in 1979 when it expanded to forty teams, and the highest seed granted a Big Sky team was in 1982: ranked eighth in the final polls with a 26–2 record, the Idaho Vandals under Don Monson were seeded third in the West regional. After a first round bye, they beat Lute Olson's Iowa Hawkeyes in nearby Pullman in overtime, but lost to second-seeded (and fourth-ranked) Oregon State in the regional semifinals (Sweet Sixteen), also played in Provo. (Idaho had defeated OSU by 22 points in December in the Far West Classic at Portland.)Other Big Sky teams that advanced to regional semifinals (Sweet Sixteen) include the Weber State Wildcats in 1969 and 1972, when the total field was 25 teams, and the Montana Grizzlies under Jud Heathcote in the 32-team field in 1975. The Griz fell to UCLA by just three points, who went on to win another title in John Wooden's final year as head coach. (A year later, Heathcote was hired at Michigan State with Monson as an assistant for the first two years; in his third season, the Spartans won the national title in 1979.)Since 1982, only three teams from the Big Sky have advanced within the NCAA tournament, and none past the round of 32. Weber State won in 1995 and 1999, coached by Ron Abegglen, and Montana in 2006, led by alumnus Larry Krystkowiak. Prior to Idaho in 1982, the Big Sky had been seeded seventh (Weber State, 1979 & 1980; and Idaho, 1981); the highest seed for the conference since 1982 is ninth (Weber State, 1983), and the highest since expanding to 64 teams in 1985 is twelfth (Weber State in 2003; Montana in 2006).Through 2018, the Big Sky has yet to receive an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament. The first NIT appearance for the conference was Idaho in 1983; two Big Sky teams advanced to the NIT's round of 16: Weber State (1984) and Boise State (1987).Big Sky women's basketballSee also: Big Sky Conference Women's Basketball TournamentSeasonTournament ChampionTournament Runner-Up1983MontanaWeber State1984MontanaEastern Washington1985IdahoMontana1986MontanaEastern Washington1987Eastern WashingtonMontana1988MontanaEastern Washington1989MontanaIdaho1990MontanaIdaho1991MontanaMontana State1992MontanaBoise State1993Montana StateMontana1994MontanaBoise State1995MontanaMontana State1996MontanaWeber State1997MontanaMontana State1998MontanaNorthern Arizona1999CS NorthridgePortland State2000MontanaCS-Northridge2001Idaho StateMontana2002Weber StateMontana State2003Weber StateMontana State2004MontanaIdaho State2005MontanaWeber State2006Northern ArizonaWeber State2007Idaho StateNorthern Arizona2008MontanaMontana State2009MontanaPortland State2010Portland StateMontana State2011MontanaPortland State2012Idaho StateNorthern Colorado2013MontanaNorthern Colorado2014North DakotaMontana2015MontanaNorthern Colorado2016IdahoIdaho State2017Montana StateMontana State2018Northern ColoradoNorthern ColoradoMountain West Athletic Conference (MWAC) through 1988 seasonBig Sky football titlesSeason, conference record,[38][39] and champion1963 – (3–1) – Idaho State1964 – (3–0) – Montana State – won Camellia Bowl1965 – (3–1) – Weber State^ and Idaho1966 – (4–0) – Montana State1967 – (4–0) – Montana State1968 – (3–1) – Idaho, Montana State, and Weber State1969 – (4–0) – Montana1970 – (5–0) – Montana1971 – (4–1) – Idaho – (Boise State won Camellia Bowl, UI was Div.

Postfix configuration issue with fips on centos 7; mailgun relay Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite I am trying to setup postfix to relay all mail generated on the local machine via SMTP to a mailgun relay. I have used the mailgun relay before with success on an ubuntu server, but I am migrating to a Centos 7 server which I will be running in FIPS mode. There error log is below, slightly sanitized. I have a small enough network that I choose to have each machine reach out to mailgun individually (this the loopback-only, 127.0.0.0/8 restrictions) and no firewall open port allowing smtp in to the machine. I assume the FIPS mode (and with it disabling of MD5) is causing problems, but I don't know how to overcome it or if it is even possible for tls_fprint to use some supported hash such as sha256 or sha512. However, the relay=none is slightly concerning since I have relayhost set, but perhaps that is because the smtp process is failing? Any help would be appreciated! postconf -n: alias_database = hash:/etc/alia Read more
