Stanford has eight Cross Country meets this year. Two are in Virginia and one is in Wisconsin. In the future, if they want to, they could run all of their meets in California except the ACC championship (which moves from year to year), regionals (they will be placed wherever the western regional is--possibly California), and the NCAA championship (which moves from year to year). |

Although perhaps they will try and figure out better ways to reduce the travel burden.

If the conferences were smart, they would look at multiple teams going to the same place.
UCLA playing at Iowa for VB/FB/CC in the same weekend.

Football conferences should exist differently than any other conferences

For sports like XC and track, distance doesn’t matter as much because the league title is based on one meet and then the other meets can be local or wherever. Not a big deal. The travel is significant in sports like soccer, baseball and softball where there are lots of games and they must play other teams in the league head to head on the road. I guess it’s nice to play baseball for Stanford on scholarship, it’s a great education. It will still appeal to the kids that want that Stanford degree and can’t afford to pay for it. But for the kid who might play pro, might get some NIL, he’s not going to want to be on the road 50% of the year on the east coast and I guess many will just say **** it and transfer. Conference realignment is ****ing stupid and I blame ESPN for it. |

Baseball typically plays a regional midweek game and then a three-game series (Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday afternoon). It is a 10-series ACC schedule so that will have the baseball team flying across the country four or five times in the spring until the ACC tournament. That being said, they probably won't miss any more class than other baseball players in the ACC, they'll just be getting up really early on Friday and getting back a little late on Sunday. |

The big ten will have 18 teams and the ACC will have teams on the West Coast.
Colorado cant decide which side of the mountains it wants to be on.

Doubt the SEC is interested after all the bitching and moaning they did with the CFP. And that's the only conference that makes sense regionally for them. |
