In reply to: I'm not a fan of field turf, but at least in this case posted by tf86

so there isn't any conflict of interest there or anything.

And the poster below is correct. Nothing wrong with Hofstra, ND, etc. But, the farthest south the QFs will be is Hofstra for the next 6 years. That's a problem...I don't know many ACC fans are going to repeatedly drive up 95 to go to Hofstra.

Other QF locations include

Newark, DE (this year)
Annapolis, MD (next year)
Columbus, OH (2022)

All south of Hempstead, NY (although Columbus barely is, and in any event, Hempstead is probably a shorter drive than Columbus for most of the southern Division I programs).

Your point is well taken, however, even if the details aren't entirely correct. Four years is too long a time for Hempstead to be the shortest drive of the QF sites for most of the southern schools.
