I posted what I did because this is an "extreme take" thread as mentioned in the title. It's been said a lot that Ohio State was his favorite child, (I don't believe that), and I was just taking a jab at that.

RutgersGuy is kind of right though. I don't think schools should get full benefits the instant they join. The SEC does this and to each their own, but I also believe the vested for 7 years is a bit much. They should either get higher percentages during those 7 years or just shorten the time until they receive full pay.

And for me it's not even getting a full share right away, but we got a slight increase from what we were getting in the Big East while Maryland got what they got from the ACC along with a loan that put them even closer to a full share. People want to complain about our performance but when you aren't playing on an even playing field what do you expect? I do think 7 years is a bit excessive. I think 5 is better with an increase each year until you get to a full share.

And just think, for all the tri-state B1G alum, it'll be the easiest and cheapest ticket you'll ever get to see your school play! Well except for NW fans, those tickets are easy to get too.
