The bigger scam is publicly funded colleges getting massive stadiums for like 8 games per year.
The fact that my state school (Rutgers) gets ~140m a year, and can expect taxpayers and tuition to cover any loses they garner doing that, to cosplay a D1 football school is nuts. Half the school is Indian and asian and couldn't give less of a shit about football - give us like 1% of that budget for a funded cricket team and we'd demolish.
The issue would be finding other NCAA Schools to play cricket against
Maybe they can start with Princeton.
