You typed a lot to say nothing.

This is the #1 issue confronting Rutgers football and the biggest reason we have the #37 class . Nothing else matters, Nick. Rutgers Football will not be competitive without adequate financial support

You typed a lot of say the same exact thing you repeat near weekly.

If there only was a merge function on this site. Or someone that merges everything regardless of similarity.

Rutgers just doesn't care about legacy or the view provided. A real shame and RU admissions goes out of it's way to diversify the population at the expense of qualified kids.

generational families provide more monies to schools, RU doesn't get it
You’re right. My Granddaughter is a rising junior who should never have been admitted. Scraping by in low level college courses after a bad HS career and lazy and fat. But guess they wanted a white girl from DC. A generation earlier they rejected her uncle with good grades, all state in soccer. He’s now CFO of a major medical supply company. Used to be a great school in 50’s and 60’s.

This needs to be repeated because it’s the biggest blocker to our success. Meanwhile, you don’t have a problem with all the Schiano stinks posts, so who is kidding whom?

The prerequisite to being a champion is Money, lots of it. Show me a championship team, and I’ll show you the boosters who made it happen. While we don’t have whales, but we do have enough alumni in a 600K strong alumni base who can give enough to make it happen.

For us to be champions, we need 1,000 boosters to pony up $100K one time for a Fieldhouse. Rutgers will bond the rest, per Schiano’s first contract. We also need 1,000 boosters to pony up $20K a year for NIL support. This is more critical than the Fieldhouse investment, if we have to prioritize.

Miami has 14 4⭐️ or 5⭐️ recruits because they have Money. Ohio State has similar numbers.
We have one,because currently, our value proposition isn’t strong enough to entice the best recruits.

we have to donate more, to catch up to our big ten peers, who have been donating for generations. It will take 4 years of consistent support to be a contender. That roughly how long it took Miami.
You becoming a PSU fan and relieving RU of your curse.

The issue isn’t a curse. It’s cheapskates in the fanbase who want to win on the cheap. That’s not possible in today’s game. It hasn’t been possible ever. 157 years of mostly lousy football proves this. 17-53-1 vs Princeton proves this.

I gotta be honest - I'm intrigued by this Field House idea. @RutgersAl can you elaborate / provide more details? What is needed and what could it do for the program???
Do you have a sadistic need to expose the rest of the people in this board to this nonsense.

Could be the first thing I agree with you on. Embarrassing AL at it again.

There are a bunch of people in this thread I don't normally agree with and vice versa but DeadbeatAl seems to be bringing everyone together in their hate of him.

He was much better when he was the lanky goof predicting we'd win the NC every year. Then he turned into the annoying beer bellied dad bod guy (ironic because he can't even get a girlfriend) who is constantly rage posting about everyone not donating enough to help the team win, when he himself isn't donating.

At this point he should just go be a Miami fan. Everyone is done with him and his stupidity.

the lack of self awareness by Al is almost comical.. He is either one of the stupidest people I have seen on these boards or an incredible troll

Didn't Indiana get a new field house before their program changed trajectory? This would be a great move and is exactly what Schiano needs to be successful. @RutgersAl Do we have enough funding for the field house?
