    March Madness Expansion to 76 Teams

    The NCAA is insolvent. The debt the NCAA owes is $2 billion higher than the NCAA's assets. In round numbers, the NCAA owes former athletes $3 billion from the House settlement. The NCAA has $1 billion on hand, mostly cash and investments. The media rights deal with ESPN for the NCAA men's...

    Ranking college football's biggest spenders on private jet travel per Front Office Sports

    The On3 author did not make clear if the private air travel was for recruiting, travel related to competitions, or other travel, such coaches using private jets for personal reasons. For travel related to competitions, Rutgers is consistently in the top third of the B1G, but not at the top...

    OT: We may win the World Cup in 2026

    I agree. Mass transit World Cup could be a repeat of mass transit Super Bowl debacle. NJ Transit's customer advocate is doing a Zoom call tomorrow morning. He is French and France is playing at MetLife so I might call in to ask Franck (pronounced FWUNK) Beaumin what are his tips for getting to...

    Lino combines Charles Jones, Waliyy Dixon, and Damon Santiago. Losing Lino would show Rutgers bball doesn't know what it is doing.

    OT: Should Hurley have gotten a Technical Foul?

    The Hurley family's relationship with Rutgers pre-dates Dan's Rutgers coaching tenure. "Seton Hall and Rutgers were among the best Division 1 programs that recruited me. I wanted to attend Rutgers, partly because there wouldn't be as much pressure. It was the Atlantic 10 Conference, not the...

    OT: HS with probably 100 + students, $21 million stadium

    Let's see if this Plains, TX, indoor football field actually gets funded and built. Would not be surprising if Plains, TX, population 1,355 and shrinking, funds and builds an indoor practice facility before Greg's indoor football practice palace gets funded and built. One report states the new...

    OT: Should Hurley have gotten a Technical Foul?

    Hurley ref Ayers cut from Final Four. High Knees Jeff Anderson made the cut. Hopefully High Knees refs a UConn game. Will be great entertain to High Knees and Dan Hurley on the same court.

    OT: Should Hurley have gotten a Technical Foul?

    "Most games, I'm in a dialogue with those refs. And they're dialoguing with me. Cracking jokes, busting balls. It's not all animus all the time out there. It's a relationship, and this game is all about relationships. So I feel comfortable, when over those same refs blow a call, jumping on...

    OT: Plane crashes into fire truck at LaGuardia

    I got a speeding ticket in New Brunswick the Canadian province. Only province to have two official languages. The cop asked in which official language I would like the ticket after I showed him my New Jersey license. I called the town to pay by credit card but was told I needed to return...
