Scott Soshnick, Eben Novy-Williams and Michael Barr discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including the return of football coach Greg Schiano to Rutgers University, whose athletic program is one of the most subsidized in the nation. The Big Ten Conference school's most successful football coach is returning to New Jersey in an attempt to resurrect the program he took to six bowl games in his final seven seasons. Rutgers was 2-10 this season. Schiano went 56-33 as the school's head football coach. Also discussed is Major League Baseball's decision to grant local digital rights to its teams, a move foreshadowed by Amazon's investment in the YES Network. And also discussed is the National Football League's suspension of Arizona Cardinals player Josh Shaw for betting on games.
