When Joe Paterno speaks, people listen, and

"I've tried talk to the Big Ten people, 'Lets get a 12th team, let's get another team from the East -- Syracuse, Rutgers, Pittsburgh -- then we can have a little bit of a playoff."

When people are looking for something, anything to talk about during the summer doldrums, the ol' Hall of Famer comes through once again.

Corzine's budget calls for a cut in funding for New Jersey's universities to the funding level of the early 1990s, Rutgers, like every college and university in the State of New Jersey, is not eligible for support under the Federal Stimulus Package. For fiscal year 2007-2008, the state of New Jersey was the only state in the union to decrease its financial support for higher education. As a whole, New Jersey currently has one of the highest tuition rates at its state universities.
