Everyone knows Rutgers would be dead in the water if they weren't a piggy-backer

That’s my point. These decisions are market-based more than they are competition

Rutgers would not be in the conversation right now if they were an outsider

The B10 is pretty good about adding dead weight along with blue bloods so that would be on-brand

I don't think so.

Certainly could be. If the plan is to go beyond USC/UCLA very shortly

Contrary to what CFB talking heads think, Oregon doesn't bring additional money to the table

Call me naive, but who cares about academics… it’s football?

Not compared to Cal and Stanford. If the B1G added Rutgers and MD, then it could take Cal and Stanford.
