Heilbronn without a contract.

I was told a couple of weeks ago Heilbronn is working with no
contract since his contract expired last year. if this is true
maybe change is coming. If it’s the wrong kind of change it
won’t matter and they should clean house. It is not a year to
year contract as somebody said on here. I heard this from
someone at the school.

Good.
This lines up with what Eric from Statesman told me last year at
a basketball game, he showed me the official FOIL contract from
the school's database which said Heilbron was extended in 2019
until June 2022. Since he was still here after the contact
expired, I assumed the worst and that he got a hidden extension.
But sounds like it's just a 1-year deal.

I hope the President gives every one a decade long contract,
with a 10% raise each year. They all deserve it considering the
great accomplishments that has been recognized in all sports.
That should seal the faith of this university. I mean heck. SBU
is getting a ton of cash from NYC mayor Adams for what, I have
no idea!!

I'll share here that I heard last weekend that Heilbron is
"likely out." The information is second hand (friend of a
friend) so take with a grain of salt

Stony Brook’s Athletic Director Shawn Heilbron extends focus
into the classroom and community

[quote]Heilbron, however, also believes that includes
encouraging athletes to get involved with people in the area,
whether that’s reading to students in elementary school, showing
up at events in Suffolk County or going to the Children’s
Hospital.
“Giving back to others is going to help you become a better
person,” Heilbron said. “Our student athletes, our coaches, our
staff, embrace that relationship with people.”
Teachers, club leaders, or area organizations who would like to
tap into the university’s athletic program to provide
inspiration or help with local efforts can do so through the
school’s website, by connecting with Heilbron or with anyone on
his leadership team, including Arnika Edwards, who oversees
career and leadership development.
Edwards is a “fantastic leader in our department” who helps
“organize so much of our community engagement,” Heilbron said.
“We will help you get in touch with the right person.”
The school of health sciences is developing a lab that the
university will build within the athletic facility that could
help student athletes as well as those studying the field of
health sciences.
“There’s so much in terms of technology now that’s being
utilized with recovery and with injury prevention,” said
Heilbron. “We’re excited to take the next step forward.”
Amid ongoing concerns about the emotional and psychological
well-being of students, the athletic department has embedded two
full-time mental health counselors in their building.
The athletic department also works to help students prepare for
the balance between significant academic and athletic demands.
Advisors urge students to build in time to eat, receive therapy
for injuries, and work with tutors. “Our students know that if
you come to Stony Brook, this is going to be a challenging
education,” Heilbron said.
Student athlete grades have been improving since Heilbron
arrived. A decade ago, the grade point average was 3.06. Last
year, the GPA for student athletes climbed to 3.24. “It’s a
testament to our student athletes, but also to our academic
advisors,” said Heilbron.
The university is raising money for a baseball/ softball complex
and is looking to improve several locker rooms. “Locker rooms
are always something we’re trying to enhance,” said Heilbron.
“It’s where our student athletes spend most of their time.”
Stony Brook is completing a renovation of the women’s basketball
locker room and is hoping to enhance the locker rooms of the
football and lacrosse teams.
