Honestly it isn't a crazy idea at all, although I wouldn't limit it to athletes. Maybe a semi-permanent, small campus in Texas or in DC or something which would be fulsome enough to allow both athletes and non-athletes to take a variety of classes, but not a full campus or anything close to it. Would make things easier on the athletes for certain. It seems like an odd thing to do, but then again joining the ATLANTIC coast conference, while the most sensible thing to do under the circumstances, is also an odd thing to do objectively, and may call for other oddities to make it more workable for our impacted students.
FASCINATING IDEA in a new landscape of Zoom / Google / Teams Classes on line.
[Didn't Stanford alums invent and commercialize a lot of the enabling technologies?]
There is a small Stanford campus in WDC for hosting seminars and some interns.
So, some kind of "Hopkins Marine Station" and Tele-Research facility in NC?
Research Triangle Park would be logical for Environmental Data Processing Center...
Do an 8-9 day swing to the East Coast and play a couple games. Save on travel / time zone shift.
We ARE a NATIONAL Univ (actually Global). Frankly ORST and WAST are not. That's just the case.
On-On...
