How much longer can most college teams operate on growing annual losses? Who would you want as a Prime Rutgers Athletics sponsor?

Athletics are the #1 form of advertising for these schools. The football and mens basketball teams are advertising expenses. The remainder of the athletics departments are the cost of doing business (Title IX) for having football and mens basketball. The schools are not stupid; they are spending on football to advertise the school.

football and bball are not bleeding nearly as much as people think but other sports, sure

Rutgers is just run poorly and Tate needs to clean house, literally shyytcan many admin staff and bring in new, real world experience persons. There is no trick to running a university budget, marketing, operations that anyone in the business world cannot do
