I could pick this apart, but I'll bet others can do it better.

One Man's Perspective on RU Athletics

 

[BeKnighted_rivals]

I have only one comment, which is that the article does not mention just how much money the B1G throws off to full members, an amount that will be larger than RU's deficit. It makes you think the author has no idea how little money RU got from the BEast and the AAC.

Edited because extra words snuck in somehow.

Funny - I thought I'd seen this article from Forbes earlier today but now the link is broken.

I'm not sure what's wrong with it, although if you click in the search box that shows up it eventually takes you there. Anyway, I'll try and see if my link will work.

Not that I agree with him

Well, what a pleasant piece. OK, what is this *** hats agenda against RU?? To pick out one university seems strange.
