-- I shudder when I read about travel plans that are going to arrive at 4 or 5 am in the morning back to Stanford.  This is extremely bad planning and will have days-long impact on screwing up their sleep. So much better to stay overnight hotel locally after the presumably east coast late afternoon or night game.  Then make the entire travel home all on the next day.  Yes you "lose" a day. But you keep your normal sleep going and there's very little jet lag impact compared to the attempt to save a day by starting the travel earlier, only to arrive in middle of night, and your jet lag is severe and your sleep is all out of whack for possibly days.

Great thought in theory… but who is footing the bill for the extra night for the student athletes and coaches?
