I've wondered about travel arrangements for the other teams like baseball, gymnastics, volleyball, soccer, etc. It seems like I read that the baseball team went by bus to Knoxville last year. Of course the trip to College Station isn't much longer than the trip to Fayetteville.

That's definitely a consideration, but I wonder if the increase in football/basketball dollars wouldn't more than make up for travel costs to Missouri.

Besides, Leon could fit the entire volleyball team in his motor home!

AndFloridaState? Who cares if they come in? They stay in the ACC, they win a lot of meaningless games every year. They come into the SEC, they fill their stadium more often.

I think that it would save a lot of $ for non-revenue sports.

Much easier for a lacrosse team to catch a bus to Tallahassee than fly to Missouri.

Given the limited budgets of non-revenue sports, it would be nice to have some conference opponents that weren't 300 miles away.

UCF and USF would fit the bill as well.
