On Wednesday night, New Jersey Senator Raymond Lesniak released a 45-page document, advocating for increased athletics spending.
The report includes tables, graphs, statistics, numbers analyzing the economic and social impacts of increased spending. Lesniak hired a firm to do the research that proves the university's move to the Big Ten provides enormous financial opportunities.
Aside from the data, two things stand out in the report: (1) the importance of athletics in today's college experience and (2) the lack of a plan for the future.
