       The bad news is we’re losing a lot of very good players to the
       transfer portal however the good news is once the new HC is in
       place there’s a lot of very good players in the portal that
       would be a very good addition to the SBU Program

       And their not coming here!! Let's be serious the only good thing
       Stony Brook is good for is academics. Now I'm absolutely not
       saying that's a bad thing of course. BUT if you come here for
       the combination of athletics and academics.........dead end.
       This school is an absolute dead end for athletes to come to.

       I'm actually surprised we haven't seen more transfers. Happy the
       kids are mostly waiting see what happens with the new coach
       [/quote]
       Anybody who waits to see who will be the future HC of this team
       is only wasting their years of eligibility to play college
       football. This program is in far deeper than just a HC

       I don’t want to rush anything but it’s going to be important to
       hit the transfer portal- whatever coach they hire will have to
       fill some big positions of need. The whole secondary will need
       to be revamped- the pass defense was abysmal last year. The
       Maine game was one of the worst defensive performances I have
       seen.

       That's what happens when you don't play anyone else. They kept a
       two man rotation all season. Even with injuries they would talk
       them into playing.

       Those of us who predicted an exodus via the portal were
       certainly on target (to be fair, that was an easy call given the
       intersection of our sad  program and general trends).
       As far as picking up quality players via the portal, those sorts
       of kids have the most options and we’re not looking very
       attractive right now. The sooner we land a successful coach kids
       want to play for the sooner we (slowly) turn that around.

       The problem is that it's more than just a head coach problem
       here. The entire staff needs to go. Of course a new HC can
       hire/fire whoever they want, but the possibility of leftovers
       staying around that are just completely useless to any football
       program. Eg. HATCH

       Hatch heilbron and emrich all have to go because they cant raise
       money. you only have the budget money to work with for the most
       part and that doesnt work at all. State employees collecting
       checks. no incentive.

       On the one hand, a large number of kids exiting a 0-10 team via
       graduation and portal is not necessarily a terrible thing BUT
       there are sure to be potential recruits looking elsewhere on top
       of this. Soooooooo, we are talking a long rebuild before we go
       .500 in the CAA. Years. And only if we land a great coach.

       Indeed to be true. But only if SBU hires a real coach who can
       recruit and develop young players, something Priore could never
       do..
