The last piece of the conference's rights has been signed. What does this mean for Purdue.
It all comes down to money. Purdue needs it. Ohio State and Michigan have it. Rutgers needs it so they joined the B1G. Yesterday was just another example of why Rutgers made the right decision by joining this conference. It was announced yesterday that ESPN will in fact stay in the B1G business by signing a new 6 year deal between the conference and the network. This comes as a bit of a surprise if you've paid attention to the business side of things.
