I know it's not 1990 anymore. But I really don't see how they're going to sustain this without a few more green dots to the left somewhere.

They fly on private chartered planes. A 2-hour vs 4 hour flight on a private plane isn’t torture.

Pretty much all Olympic sports fly commercial

East to west it's longer than 2 hrs....it's about 4. Even on a charter. Going

5.5 LA to NYC. Which is why it makes sense for Utah to join their conference.

Olympic sports gonna have to travel

I wish non football sports could have traditional conferences

I have to believe that will eventually happen. Just as a cost saving measure.

Olympic sports will soon be true geographical conference affiliations

It’s the dumbest thing of all time

Super dumb.

Even pro sports are somewhat regional.

Are you old enough to remember the ACC being mocked for adding Syracuse & Miami?

For women's lacrosse? Pff they'll love it.

Two words: recruiting monopoly

Doesn’t seem like a big deal at all for football. And nobody cares about the other sports

So dumb

It’s going to be so brutal for those softball players.

USC and UCLA are going to suck for a long time. Huge advantage for those schools

Travel takes a toll no question

That Rutgers UCLA showdown though will be worth the flight.

Shore10

7/5/22 9:18pm

Screw em. I hope it sucks and everybody hates it.

I don't see how USC and UCLA recruiting doesn't suffer

Mitty

7/5/22 9:40pm

From being in the big10?! Suffer?

Losing is going to be a problem.

All time USC records against current B10 members

Stalwartbob

Those records don't look that great actually. In the last 10 years they are 4-3.

Coach's Dad

7/6/22 10:14am

"don't look that great"? Are you kidding me? a winning record against EVERY team

An understated point is the jet-lag impact. Good luck with that USC and UCLA.

Hill4Heisman

7/5/22 11:13pm

Maybe USC and UCLA aren't all that interested in winning lots of football games.

Never forget the 2 time zone rule if CFB.

slatecoug

7/5/22 11:36pm

Which is???

RUNBYU1

Never wear white after flying at least two timezones.

Shore10

7/6/22 7:37am

In CFB, teams that travel 2 time zones only win approximately 28% of the time.

UCLA would love those away odds.

Shore10

7/11/22 10:37pm

I agree I think at least 2 and maybe 4 schools join usc/ucla. Cal Stanford ou

I have a feeling many of the sports from the LA schools will end up in another conference
