Notre Dame is an independent in football, but they’re in a conference for everything else, why aren’t we all independent for football? Take the 64 teams in Power Five and make that one division, take the 64 teams in Group of Five, make that another division. We play for a championship, they play for a championship and no one else gets affected. Our sport’s different than everybody else — we only play once a week, travel’s not a big deal for football, but it is a big deal for other sports. So that’s my theory.”

Chip, it's about the money and tv rights. It's not about football.

Yeah if it was about the sport itself Rutgers wouldn't be in the Big 10.
