Maryland now a member of the Big 10 Rutgers to follow!

Hotpizza · Nov 19, 2012

It's official Maryland now a Big 10 school. Rutgers to announce on Tuesday.

More dominos to fall in other conferences soon.

The landscape is a changing once again.

Just when you thought the B10 couldn't get any worse!

It's all about tv revenue. Big Ten. Network wants the Baltimore/Washington market and the NY/NJ market. Those are the only reasons.

yes maryland doesnt strengthen the big10.. but i believe rutgers has constantly been improving and deserves a shot with a big conference with automatic bids.

Why do they even bother with conference names anymore? This is all very lame imo. If they are so money hungry why not endorse and support legalized sports betting? Bunch of hypocrites.

Not 1 MD alum is happy with this, including me

How about Boomer Esiason??

Us buckeyes aren't happy either. This move doesn't do us any good.

The Big Ten had to find somebody they could beat at football.

CoachCB · Nov 19, 2012

I'm talking about real sports: college football!!

So how many teams will they add before they finally change the name of the conference ? I had no idea you could have that many bad teams in one conference !

Hotpizza · Nov 19, 2012

I wouldn't be surprised they don't get to 16 team before it's all said and done. Rumors are they are looking for Texas and Oklahoma but I can't see that happening at all. Then again I never thought I would see the day Nebraska, Penn St Maryland and Rutgers would be there.

That Longhorn Network deal will likely leave Texas where they are and at some point could they go Independent and keep all the revenue rather than share? Greed Rules!

Big Mo and Lil Mo are probably both dead now. Lefty , Jim o'Brien and John Lucas will soon follow! God Bless all of our Hallowed Turtle Alumni,including Jim Gentile, Class of '39. PS Lenny Bias would have made a great Alumni , as well! PSII We will always Love Boomer and Frank Reich too!

Ticotaco · Nov 20, 2012

PSIII Would have Loved Randy White Too if he had not turned into a F'ing Cowboy, as in Dallas F'ing Cowboys!

Ticotaco · Nov 20, 2012

PSIV We forgive Brad Davis and his Dallas days,was much better than any and all F'ing Tar Heels !

Then you dont understand why conferences add teams. This move just made your school a bunch of money. These moves arent made for competition on the field, they are monetary decisions.
