That sounds great, and all, but how does this translate to on-field product? Are the schools going to use this money to hire better coaches? More knowledgeable/better trainers? Better equipment? Safer equipment? Better facilities?

It seems as though we've seen these stories a lot the past 20 years, and yet, deserved or not, the Big Ten still gets shit on by the media. Too many schools aren't pulling their weight in the Big Ten. (I'm looking at you, M*ch*gan, Illinois, and Nebraska.)

If you're Maryland or Penn State - you probably use it to pay off your considerable legal fees.
If you're Rutgers - you probably use it to pay your taxes.
