[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm from the Midwest and really hate these Big Ten expansions. Having Rutgers and UCLA in the Big Ten is stupid. [/quote] Why do you think kids go from Maryland to Wisconsin or New Jersey to IU? Where are there more high school students than in California? I get the nostalgia but the schools know exactly what they’re doing. [/quote] They are getting TV payouts for football. It has nothing to do with attracting regular students or catering to the student body, it is all about getting large checks from ESPN and Fox. Meanwhile, teams on a shoe string budget still have to travel to away conference games halfway across the country. I'm sure UCLA field hockey loves to prospect of getting to Ames Iowa one week and then Lincoln Nebraska the next. [/quote] Why would UCLA ever travel to Ames, Iowa for a B1G game?[/quote] Is Ames any different than Corvallis, OR?[/quote]
