The all-inclusive Rutgers dumpster fire thread...

[SUFaninNJ]

Nope. Not here either.

But Marco and Carlin said that’s what’s going to bring fans to the games. I guess they’ll come down after the Bennies go home.

 

[tipphill]

Yes.

rutgers is never broke. the state money keeps pouring in, despite the enormous issues ru has had. sure they continue to lose money, the take they will get from big 10 will eventually more than compensate . in the meantime, the state will foot the bill . does anyone have any idea how their alumni donations are??? just curious

 

[tipphill]

Now, how do we distract fans at SHI(T) Stadium from the massacre occurring on the field? Oh, I know, food trucks!

i lived off those food trucks when i was in grad school there in 75-76.

Check out this story from Asbury Park Press: Rutgers football DoorDash orders topped $450K in 14 months

Rutgers claims the DoorDash service was to make it easier when football players couldn't access on-campus meals. But there are numerous red flags.

Rutgers Football Reportedly Racked Up $450K DoorDash Bill

Players placed orders all over the country from May 2021 to June 2022.

Is that a violation? Using school AD card / account to buy meals even when away from the program and campus?

This whole thing, which is an add on to a previous story, is pretty disgusting. I don't see how any of this is allowed on so many levels including the wanton expenditure of tax dollars without any accountability.

Isn't the entire Rutgers Athletic Department pretty much a wanton expenditure without any accountability?

At the least, the AD, the entire AD staff, the football HC and the rest of his staff need to be fired immediately and put in prison. The members of the team who stole all the money from the taxpayers also need to be put on trial and put in jail.

The stadium needs to be razed and the ground where it once stood need to be covered with at least 2 feet of salt.

Judge sutomcat has spoken.

Always such an ugly, crappy, terrible, very bad game with them.

Check out this story from Asbury Park Press: Gator Bowl was a financial bust for Rutgers — and NJ taxpayers

Rutgers ended with a $537,000 payout for appearing in the game on New Year's Eve, not enough to cover even its airfare.

https://www.app.com/story/news/watchdog/2022/09/08/rutgers-football-athletics-cost-nj-taxpayers-gator-bowl-2021/65741909007/

Wake got $2.8million. B1G didn't receive anything.

“We didn't want to go back to any of our other schools and say, ‘Hey, one member decided to do something that's a little bit out of the box and so we're going to ask everyone to fund that,’” the official said. “If Rutgers wanted to do this, we wanted them to be able to make that decision. But we also didn't want to ask other schools to fund that decision.”

Its such a boondoggle.

That is so Rutgers

 

[bigmike]

Again, lose money on each and every decision, but make it up in volume. It’s a very complicated long term strategy.

I cannot view the article, but if I understand you correctly, Rutgers paid to be a bodybag game for Wake Forest. Schiano at his best.

That and the B1G was basically like "you do what you want, we won't stop you but we're not helping you fund this if you're in the red...which we know you are."

The money adding up for the bowl trip is insane. They are missing bills; if you recall they had flight trouble; no ticket sales because of short notice; coaches got bowl bonuses! hahaha at 5-7.

RU said the benefit of extra practices and TV commercials for a big audience is valuable. Not wrong, but not in millions...

It also stated that the B1G was going to take Rutgers share of the revenue from the Gator Bowl and include into the low-tier bowl distribution for the rest of the B1G teams. But since it was so little, they were like, "uhh..just keep it Rutgers." Like damn... Gator Bowl really did screw them.

Again. Wake and thus the ACC got $2.8M!

It's so incredibly sad. Part of me as a NJ taxpayer hopes they at least negotiated out to get a full share of conference revenue before 2027 with the new media deals...but unlikely given how they politic. USC and UCLA will get full shares immediately.
