EvanstonCat, I can understand your feelings. After all, RU
is one of the two new kids on the block in the B1G, and truthfully, we're still acclimating to being part of the B1G brotherhood ourselves. -But without question, as you pointed out,
"R" enthusiasm regarding being part of what we view as the top league in the nation is absolutely genuine and we wouldn't want to be in any other conference.
They say that change is the one constant in life, and for RU fans, this particular change, (in league affiliation), is one we feel is possibly THE most important in the history of the University, both athletically, and just as importantly, academically.
Also, there is a connection of sorts between Northwestern and RU; Wildcat WR Miles Shuler is a Jersey guy, and at one time was actually a Scarlet Knight. -Good to see he's having success and had an important catch in your win today.
