Good interview with Delany in USA Today, but he let this little nugget slip out. He is straight up saying the possibility of Rutgers or Turtle playing in a football championship game isn't even in his steam of consciousness. Because, uh, if RU or UMD made a championship game, then one of the teams wouldn't have to travel east, right?
Q: There are no plans to move the football championship game East, right?
A: I think we're going to keep it central. It's too hard. In basketball, you have 14 fan bases. With football, you have two fan bases involved in the championship game. Out of respect and common sense, you don't want to move it to a place where 100% of the people that are involved are going to have to come from someplace else.

Whoops.
