Hi, first time poster here. Lapsed RU fan. Attended in late 90s. Wife competed in a varsity sport at RU. I played rugby for several seasons. Two years ago when doing the taxes she gave me a receipt for an R Fund donation. I yelled "WTF!" and said I'm ok with a donation to RU athletics but earmark it to your former team. I attended the Boston College football game in September with my family, first RU game I've seen in years, and out of extreme boredom watched Saturday's Maryland game. Then I found this site and signed up.
When I bought the New York Post yesterday, the paper with the biggest and best sports section of any US newspaper today, I was surprised the Rutgers-Maryland game didn't get a mention, not even a sentence. Look, I know the New York market focuses on pro sports more than other B1G markets, and maybe more than any US market. Still, the Rutgers athletics media department is doing a lousy job if they aren't getting exposure in New York media when at the same time hyping up to whoever will listen how great it is that Rutgers is in the New York market.
I subscribe to nj.com and view their Rutgers sports coverage to be better than most of their work.
