Parker Jefferson 6'10" Center

I will get 75 to 80% of the production from Jefferson at 1M dollar discount for the same 18 to 20 minutes a game. If Jefferson scores more than the size guy that can't score, RU is ahead.....

I know it sounds crazy, but Lathan is actually better than Ogbole, even though Ogbole provides size and rim protection with some rebounding. At some point, basketball has to factor into the equation over that specialist.

We had 3 specialists last portal and 1 kinda complete basketball player in Acuff.....that didnt work out, news flash....we needed more Lathan types than Ogbole or Martini types.
Lathan is a more skilled individual basketball player, but its probably even as to who is better in a group of 5 right now.

So salty lol...I even italicized that relevant section just for you since bold text bothers you so much. Anyway the point is very clear, unfortunately reasoning and critical thinking aren't your thing. But you're very accomplished at posting and linking weather charts! I'll happily spell it out for if you're really interested in a deeper discussion into this topic.
You act as if I care about what you have to say on this. I don't, but you're welcome to continue bloviating.

Financial Realities - Some Programs Have HUGE $$

Anyone who comes in who would be stupid enough to cross the Big 10 would come to a quick end. I believe you have noted you also went to Cal. The experience of Cal and Stanford when their conference disintegrated is a great warning to anyone who finds themselves on the outside of the Big 2 conferences. I don’t know about Cal, but I guarantee you that Stanford, even with their historically lukewarm fan base, would take all of 30 seconds before they would agree to write a $1 billion check if it would get them into the Big 10. If Rutgers isn’t committed to Big Time college sports there are no shortage of schools ready to replace them, and the alternatives if you leave are all really bad.
All I'm saying is that I don't think anyone can know for sure what the future will bring. Rutgers has to decide what level of deficit it is willing to have and whether it has a reasonable chance of athletic success. I think that will depend at least in part on whether the House settlement's restrictions on booster NIL prove enforceable, because otherwise Rutger will eternally be at a disadvantage compared to school with many more "whales" that we do. And I'm not as convinced as you are that Stanford would write such a check; if they would, they would be in the Big Ten already.
