Message: [QUOTE="Fjoinkay, post: 419049, member: 604"] In my opinion the B1G taking on Rutgers is mostly a distraction because B1G was going to work it's way into the NYC market anyway. Now B1G can seem to use the Rutgers addition as leverage but it's unnecessary in my opinion, and I would guess it serves more as a PR move than anything. Rutgers is the beneficiary financially, but I'm pretty sure Rutgers will end up a doormat in B1G football and basketball. As time rolls on for Rutgers in the B1G it will be forced to spend much more money on it's athletics programs. My guess is Rutgers will do a poor job managing the money and over time end up right where it started. [/QUOTE]
