LOL, we got waxed... It was 16-19 RU with 4min left in the 4th quarter... Now did we get "waxed" in the last 4min of that game and give up 10pts due to our DL falling apart? Yes. But not the whole game...

yup. With a predicted $44mill/yr coming in from big ten tv revenue our financial woes will be a thing of the past, once we get full share after 6yrs. Till then, we'll gradually ramp up from $12mill this year (iirc a little more than the annual payout from the Big East) to that $44mill sum in 2021.

It will take us a decade to get all our sports programs in order even with big ten money. We are VERY far behind in athletic infrastructure and we are only getting the money needed together in small increments. For many of out programs, now will be the first time any money was seriously invested...

you do the difference between #57 and #69 is a couple of points right? For US News there isn't much difference in academic quality between #75 and #50 but there is a big difference between $25 and #50. What really matters is what you do with that education. Everything else is pretty frivolous...

Not unless we find a $100mill lying around. The current plans are to build an NEW indoor state of the art FB and Basketball facility (basically a new Hale Center) with MBB and WBB practice courts, indoor FB field, offices, state of the art rehab and training etc. This will be where the giant...

No, I'm not proud of it. Just stating a fact. It is what it is. Spending or focusing on athletics was looked down upon for many decades. That kind of thinking has only started to change as new admin come in and the old ones retire. Still there is a lot of backlash from faculty as I'm sure you...

True. You don't only have 1 NCAA NC to your name in school athletics history unless you really just don't care about athletics. Thankfully we've started to get more serious about all sports over the past 5yrs (FB since 2000) but the changes will be slow due to no real capital to invest from...

LOL we didn't start putting real money into athletics until 2000. From 1980-2000 we were playing D1 with D1AA funding for 32 sports. Since then we cut 5 sports (men's and women's fencing, men's swimming & diving, men's rowing, men's tennis, ironically rowing and fencing were our most...

That dog is raping me with his eyes. I feel violated and vulnerable... I think I will be physiologically scarred for life. :eek: Whatever happened to that girl? that was a hilarious story... :confused:

Yes, many times, and not just for athletics events like big ten invite or bowl games. We've rang it for quite a few issues on the academic side as well. Congrats to UConn on your success with MBB and WBB. I know for a fact many at RU are VERY envious of that success. All we can hang our hat on...

If UConn can get AAU membership in the next couple of years, I think they will get a Big Ten invite once another team is found (similar to how the big ten pulled the trigger on Rutgers once Maryland said they would come). IF UConn get into the AAU (which I think they are close). then I could...

That's addition by subtraction if you factor in MBB. WBB doesn't mean much anyway (BTW good luck tonight against ND). I guess winning NCs in WBB and MBB comes together for you guys every 10yrs like clock work... Must be nice as a fan... Hopefully we get better in the Big Ten with FB, MBB and...

Yeah well, hopefully this is a sign that our programs are trending up. We also got AAs in wrestling and gymnastics this year as well. Our lacrosse and soccer teams are also trending up. I think in 10yrs time we should be very successful athletically and even better academically with big ten...

Yes, we really don't deserve to be a part of the big ten based on our athletic pedigree. And frankly all the events that occurred after Nov 2012 is a pretty big black eye to the big ten. I am sure they all have buyers remorse (I would be absolutely disgusted if I were in their shoes) but they...

Empire State Building Tonight in Scarlet

Rutgers-Louisville TV rating in New York City doubles Syracuse-West Virginia (2011) Syracuse coach Doug Marrone can make all the claims he wants about the Orange being New York City's football team, but the facts simply aren't there to support that contention. The latest TV ratings from...

FWIW... top 25 Kent State is currently 9-1 and will likely be the MAC champ when all is said and done... They should also climb further into the top 25 after their conference win today as well... They have been winning convincingly of late with their potent rushing attack... Best team we've...

off course not... :eek: what makes us better is being able to keep NJ's top recruits home while having a stable program... UConn being FBS doesn't help or hurt us...

WOW... an entire thread dedicated to Rutgers vs South Carolina on a UConn board... :eek: Arkansas is BETTER than their record and I would be surprised if they end the regular season 6-6 and in a bowl vs a Big East or CUSA or MAC team and blow them out to go 7-6 on the season... You have to...

yeah!!! 35-10!!!! :) We haven't executed this well since Arky on offense... we left a TON off points on the field in both the UConn and Syracuse games... would have scored 30+ in those games if we hadn't had a lot of drops and played conservative O most of both games... It sucks that the...

of course you won't I am sure losing 7 out of the last 10 matchups to us has got to sting... or your 1 winning season in the past 10yrs... enjoy the ACC basement with BC and Duke...

that is all...
