The only problem I see with forming a college kendo league is the fact that most college kendo clubs aren't as stable as say football or basketball, or even karate and TKD for example.

Agree with this, stability is a problem, unless there is someone permanate to maintain the club (think faculty/staff) the chances of it going under go up exponentially.

There are heavy concentrations of college clubs on the east and west coasts but not as many in between,

disagree, there are more than you think likely, see my post above, we certainly have a good enough showing in the big 10 to have a big 10 tournament. and in the midwest (geographical region not the federation) there are at least 10, and most major universities have a club, pick a big city with a university and I will bet you it has, or had a club(looks like UI folded when the sandan left).
