Message: [QUOTE="rottweiler44, post: 659937, member: 855"] I think the notion is more that the B1G revenue projections are based on a soon to be outdated business model and that the additions of Rutgers and UMD were not a good move when you look to the near future. When cable becomes a la carte a really starts to go away, so will all of the revenue the big ten sees through cable. At this point, the B1G is likely going to have to earn their revenue like everybody else; which in theory will be based on pure popularity of their member schools and how many customers are willing to subscribe to and pay for their content. Make no mistake, they will do well here, these are huge schools with large alumni bases, however the addition of Rutgers and UMD are not so great when you view them through this lense rather than the cable whitewash model.
