[QUOTE="Virginia Frog, post: 3164414, member: 4959"] There's always been a lot of talk about the Big's acquisition of Rutgers (subname: The State University of NJ) and that was a bogus effort to "get" the NY City market. I think that a lot of that criticism is valid and it's a true that RU doesn't "bring" NYC eyeballs per-se. What is always lost in the conversation is that the state of NJ is #11 population n America - nearly 9 million in 2022 - and by far the densest state. And being so small geographically, NJ people state-wide are interested in RU's sports fate. (What exit do you live off of? is the number #1 question people there have for each other (NJ Turnpike.) So bring in RU was far from a fail for the BIG. [/QUOTE]
