oh, the big 10 will get a huge bump in tv revenue, and I would not be shocked if it gave each program well over 30 mil...down the road.

as far as your figures that result in a $5 million deficit, some of that will be offset by the skyrocketing increase in game day ticket prices and parking
passes...increased donations required as a "seat gift" to keep your seats...my premium parking pass was about $20 per game about 2 or 3 years ago, it
went up to $80, with an increase in donation to maintain that...and it probably is going higher next year.

you would think that multiplying the parking pass price by four, increasing donation requirements would cause a drop off in such sales, but what has happened is that demand has gone up where many fans are being bumped down to lower level lots...and this is just the start of this...

IF, and it is a
big IF, RU does well on the field,  money will come flooding in...why RU should have large deficits after that would have to be
explained to the state of NJ...but a lot of money is and will be coming into the school through the football program

while you like to have a thread about RU being in the dumpster, the fans of RU were never more cranked up about the future...I hope a few
of you got to see how our stadium was, against Penn state...more of the same this Saturday...we cannot wait for the next big 10 game...

the stadium is full and rocking...not bad for a Dumpster program...
