[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 1002714, member: 7261"] It isn't about the fans anymore, the fans are pretty much locked into any successful program as it is. It's all about the TV money and sponsorship contracts. Just like the NFL has become a money printing machine, College Football and Basketball has followed. What I am curious about are some of the sports programs that I would call "throw-ins", because they don't make the school any money. Are the UW Tennis, Soccer, Rowing, Softball, swimming, golf, etc. teams going to be traveling all the way to the west coast to compete? Their budgets are tiny and flying VS busing them, all over the country, I can't see as making their budgets any better. The UW Men's Baseball was dropped in 1991 due to budgeting, will this expansion of the Big10, to include schools from all over the US, put all these other programs in jeopardy? [/QUOTE]
