It doesn’t matter if Rutgers got a lousy deal from the Big Ten

I didn’t expect to spend a summer weekend hollerin’ about Rutgers again, but here we are.

On Friday, Steve Politi of NJ.com took a look at the financials in the Big Ten, and took issue with the massive revenue disparity between the Ohio States, Michigans, and hell, Iowas, and Rutgers. Thanks to their shiny new TV deal, Michigan is projecting to earn a whopping $51.1 million dollars in 2018 from the league. That’s more than plenty of schools make in a year, period.

But not every conference school will share equally in that bounty, at least, not yet.
