I never said otherwise, and I am sure you have a vested interest as an OSU alum, wanting to keep the status quo. I spent 35 years in the Big 10. I know the conference like the back of my hand. It is self-evident that the best players prefer to go to Ohio State. But that begs the question: Why? All the other Mid-American Conference schools in Ohio are Div 1. They all have access to those same players. The point is that money is the center of the distribution of the best players. They are concentrated at OSU because they follow the money. But that doesn't make it right. No, it makes it wrong. The money should be spread evenly as in the NBA or NFL, with salary caps and equal sharing of media contracts. Then, the best team wins. Not because it always has, but because it has put together the best program at that time.
