Knuckleheads on the Raritan
If a big time NCAA football program
or a big time football program? Keep throwing money at it, maybe dear old Rutgers
can becomes as great a school as, oh, West Virginia, Missouri, or LSU.
Gov. Corzine can pay for it out of his own pocket & stick his name on it, just like Boone Pickens at OSU, & never suffer the humilation of having it removed, like the former Brendan T. Byrne Arena.
If you think New Jersey is slowly destroying everything good about itself, you'll find no better evidence than Rutgers. We should cheer the day when Greg Schiano throws in the towel & goes to a knucklehead ACC or Southeastern party school where he belongs. & let Jersey's blue chip high school players follow him.
(The most successful NCAA football team in Jersey this year was Division III College of NJ)
- does not increase a university's general endowment
- does not support a range of other varsity sports
- does not hold down tuition costs
- does not attract brighter students
- does not attract better faculty
- does not improve the school's educational facilities
- does not elevate the school's academic reputation

This was a very instructive year. Most instructive of all is that, at the end, OSU & LSU are playing for the Championship, & the unhappy runnersup are Oklahoma, Georgia, & Virginia Tech. What a surprise. No Cinderellas at the grand ball.
