The conference realignment board...

has morphed, more or less, in to the business of college sports board. I think it can stand on its own. I doubt softball can really stand on its own as a board in terms of volume of year round traffic but, Will and CC can probably speak to what are the determining factors that justify separate boards. Seems to me that outside of football, men's basketball and wrestling none of the sports generate enough year round traffic to warrant separate boards.
