For the western most teams, it’s a 5 hour flight to NYC if they were to fly into a major airport near Rutgers.
5 hours if they fly to BWI to play Maryland.
That’s OK for football or any sport that plays exclusively on weekends.
That would be absolute hell to fly in Monday night for a Tuesday basketball game, fly back Tuesday night, and fly out again Friday for a Saturday game for 3-4 hours.
Nebraska would be shortest flight for the furthest West teams and that’s still 3+ hours followed by flying into Chicago, which is just under 4 hours.
