I heard this rumor from somone, but it isn't from someone that I would call a reliable source...so I will throw it out there as a hypothetical.
What if the Big Ten tells Rutgers and UConn that they are willing to take us into the conference, but not at a full revenue share. We get into the Big Ten, but get less money from the Big Ten TV contracts than the existing Big Ten members (at least temporarily, if not permanently).
Are we desperate enough at this point to accept the lower revenue and status for our program in return for getting a seat at the 'Big Boy Table'?
