He is suffering from typical New Jersey Myopia. He knows it but simply cannot help himself. He should have gone to Princeton or Rutgers if he actually wanted to talk about teams that anyone cares about in NJ. Oh well, let's move on to something more intelligible than comments from RR.

Bottom line, Hoops and Football put schools on the map...period, end of story. It's great for morale and boosters to have success in other programs. I am a huge soccer fan and was disappointed by the NCAA Slight. But how many REALLY CARE...not too many. I follow other college sports (lax as I live in MD, College WS, etc.) but they simply don't have the clout that the BIG 2 have. FU is NEVER going to be a football school...as I have said, Conn is not a football state compared to Midwestern and Southern states.

So hoops will carry us to any sort of prowess outside the East Coast/Mid Atlantic. Rider and other MAAC Schools face the same challenge...Hoop Teams have to beat bottom Big East/Big 10/SEC/ A-10 teams to get some attention.

Just my two cents...
