Mt SAC isn't scheduled to have a facility built until 2019, barring any further delays.
How do people not know where/when the site for 2018 Championships?

Do you?
I had heard back to Sacramento for 2018.
I think they do a good job.
Forget about this heat; total abnormality.

I agree they do a good job, but they don't get many fans. I went to the '04 Oly Trials and it wasn't packed. Seem to have been even fewer people this time around (and the meet was compressed). Looks weird when Jager is waving to the fans on the start line and the camera pans to 34 people in the stands.
Eugene seems to get the best crowds, Stanford was good in '02 (easier to find shade), but maybe not enough seating for a major championship year. UCLA seems good from a stadium standpoint (big grandstands on one side, could pretty easily put up temporary stands on the other side, decent shade), but it's pretty much three dead ends and the middle of campus on the open side, unless they open up the intramural field.
Not too many people lining up to go to Sacramento (as opposed to Palo Alto or LA), and not much of a native running scene or history (as opposed to Eugene). I've heard good things about Indianapolis.
When will there be confirmation for the next site?
