It's the avatar for a short while. Changing soon. Promise to flush it! :flush:
the sooner you realize RUTGERS isn’t going to start winning the sooner you’ll be at peace. I was born into RUTGERS and I’m completely over CFB. I turned down plenty of games last season because I’d rather watch actually competitive sports teams from home with RU in the background. It’s a self fulfilling prophecy. We suck, and we’re pretty much going to suck forever
You may be right, but ain't you a ray o' sunshine.
Think we got a great deal. SHI on the outside of the stadium doesn’t bother me.Its the **** show weve been having on the inside of the stadium, that bothers me.
See ya at the ******* on August 30th. Go RU
We renamed the entire university for $5,000 and a bell. This ain't so bad.
Oh the horror! And to think social media is usually a bastion of positivity...
HOBBS and Barchi must, must, must GO!!!!
They are ******* idiots
They are ******* idiots
Assuming you got that from Wiki...I've been told on another thread, that depending on how you calculate inflation, that $5k bond is worth a helluva lot more today than the number indicated there. Take it for what it's worth. It's well established that our school is not the beneficiary of a lot of philanthropy over the years.We renamed the entire university for $5,000 and a bell. This ain't so bad.
Lol yeah, bro. Fire them over the name of the stadium. Totally realistic.
What's the big deal? So it's a SHI name. Take the money and run. We have such a poor product, only 150 people might be in the stands at any time. And it might be televised, but only fans of opposing teams are going to watch. You tell me who's getting the raw end of the deal.
They probably offered us by far the most money. TBH nobody is going to remember the name of the stadium anyway in a week. I'm sure they'll be social media posts of opposing fans cleverly drawing a T. That's probably going to be it. Meanwhile it's a pretty good deal for us.
Looking at their headquarters over here in Somerset(Franklin Township) on Davidson Avenue, very close to 287/Easton Avenue, area is really growing with new business.
so national perception for a program with 11 straight losses,one of worst records in all power 5 ,this is a boost of its image nationally?
Ohh,it will be brought up weekly during the season by opposing schools,just wait.
Agreed...we should all be happy that Highpoint sponsored things in past and that SHI is sponsoring it for the future....every bit of support helps. Obviously SHI has been doing quite a few things right to be able to consider doing this...and putting there good money up for it in exchange for the potential in marketing. How about embracing it ... We R the SHI. Tough as SHI
You're overestimating how much the rest of the country thinks of us.

Let the Nit fans make that T, it will prove they think of Rutgers as a potential rival and Rutgers need to be making either PSU or Maryland their main football rivalry once the program starts being respected again and poses a threat to win any and every game they play.
Maybe Turtle fans will make that T too .
Remember $#!t Stadium can mean the opponent is in Deep $#1T when they play the Scarlet Knights at their SHI house in Piscataway
so , the money's good, the connection to Jersey and Piscataway superb and only those with thin skin or an ax to grind would worry about what an opponent might do.

Our W/L record will determine national perception, not the stadium name which will only provide fodder for opposing fans (and some of our own).
Like me and many others, you don't think Ash will get it done here. This is a good financial deal negotiated by Hobbs to provide additional money to the program that can be used to help fund future coaching changes.
How much do you personally think of Oregon State Football?
Or Kansas, who has a very long history of sucking at football. I don't care about last year's game either.
