I got to hear a little about the "game" from an official who used to be in her conference. The official said the nonsense was enough to make her leave. She wanted to jump before she got pushed.

The only way I even come close to justifying that kind of cost is if you're sleeping at a college for more than two days and even then I'm iffy about it. The Big East used to hold its women's camp at three schools (American, Catholic and Univ. of Maryland) with officials staying in dorms at American and managed to keep the cost in the low 200s. Of course I don't know whether the conference subsidized some of the cost but it definitely made it easier on the wallet.
