Message: [QUOTE="tipphill, post: 3034370, member: 4809"] rutgers and maryland too are large land grant universities with major research capabilities. what they don't have is a rabid fan base(maryland does for hoops). another difference is they are in large eastern metro areas where they are not the only game in town and there are so many other interests besides sports pro sports are also dominate. academically and research wise they are a fit with the big 10. we are where we need to be. i hope we greatly expand our research, improve the law school and possibly develop a medical school or partnership with upstate.(or take it back) they are snake bit in terms of management. i would love to play rutgers and maryland every as they are easy home and away games for me to drive to from bethlehem pa [/QUOTE]
