Can we tear up that B1G invite already?
Someone in the B1G is impressed with the POTENTIAL number of Tri-State TV's that tune might someday into RU ball.

i think it is more about getting the big10 network to the vast alumni of the original 10 in the tristate than anything to do with rutgers....

I'm not getting what RU brings to the table except a 60 point loss in all sports. Well....30 point loss when playing B1G teams. Even moms with kids on the RU team are going to watch MSU versus Michigan.

because without rutgers the cable stations have no reason to even budge to put big10 network in their spectrum. and the big10 certainly doesnt want to have to get less for their product to get it placed either.
rutgers shot 22%, twice as many turnovers as fgs, UL 151-61 last two games. ul bench scored enough to beat rutgers....
This, its about selling subscriptions in the NYC area to cable companies. Obviously Rutgers is no draw, but having them present and on Big10 network is a decent negotiating position for the BIG, before they had no negotiating position.
Wait now....it can't be both ways. Profits are all the negotiating postion required. I see it as the only position.
Either the new viewership is already there or it isn't. If the interested TV's are there, that viewership is the negotiating position.
And that's what has me swinging.
Rutgers does have a decent football program but it wasn't what it was under Schiano either.. Same with Maryland basketball under Gary Williams..
