Week One - Planning NCAA Baseball 2027

It's officially time - 2027 college baseball season is right around the corner, and this year, I'm giving you a peek behind the curtain on what goes into planning out where the 2027 season will take me.

The Master Calendar

This is where everything lives. I eat, sleep, and breathe this calendar as I plan. Before I start mapping out my personal schedule, every university I haven't been to gets their home schedule added to a Google Cal by hand. It is tedious, tedious work and I love every second of it. There are two separate cals, one for D1 and one for D2 - D1 gets priority, with D2 used to fill in game gaps as the season goes on.

The Team Tracker

I also, of course, have a tracker of what schools I've visited - I've found Notion to be the best way to do this, but any basic spreadsheet software should work for this. I track the school and the date visited, just for my own awareness. This makes it immensely easier to figure out what school's schedules I care about.

This is the D1 tracker, with the schools I've visited automatically moving to the bottom.

The Current Calendar

Here is where things stand as of October 15, 2026. From here on out, this will be updated weekly.
