       Geno earned a fan in me after this season. SBU athletics got a
       bunch of (fair) criticism the last few years but I feel we are
       turning the corner with both our basketball and football
       programs. That being said this next season could be ugly given
       that we will essentially need to rebuild a backcourt next year.
       I'm still a fan of Policelli and am pulling for Charleston in
       the tourney but he won't be remembered at SBU anywhere close to
       how TSM will be remembered. I'm proud of TSM for sticking it
       out- watching him grow into an elite baller over his time at
       Stony Brook has been a pleasure. For me, TSM will be remembered
       along with Tre Puriefoy, Brian Dougher, Mitchell Beauford and
       others who were memorable backcourt players on this squad in the
       time I've been following the team.
       Let's hope football can have similar success this year!

       We have the 2nd-lowest basketball budget in the CAA? How much
       NIL does Charleston even have specifically, and how did they get
       it, because Geno's comparing it to Gonzaga.
       [/quote]
       I wonder these things too. Frankly, other than in general or in
       theory, I don't know much about how NIL works, other than yes it
       seems to be the great new landscape of college sports.
       But I wonder specifically what's the difference right now
       between SBU and Charleston?
       I have a friend who has held AD positions at two always and
       current top-10 men's basketball programs, and of course in terms
       of resources and how they operate it would not be far off to
       compare the Knicks to the Ward Melville boys basketball team
       when thinking about SBU and one of those programs. But SBU and
       Charleston? What's the divide?
       Perhaps a thread for another day, but I have gone to the
       SBU-connected 1957 Club web site a few times, read and taken in
       what's there, and I still don't get it. It all seems very vague,
       and perhaps it needs to be?
       And the web site itself, in terms of imagery and aesthetics, is
       very hokey to me. I mean, the opening banner is a bunch of empty
       seats? Images of generic young people wearing red? Huh?
       Is this whole thing a work-in-progress?

       The gap between Charleston and us is probably very wide resource
       wise. Pat Kelsey makes 1.1 million dollars 500k was secured
       through private donations after last year. He got a 150k bonus
       for winning the tournament almost half of Geno’s salary. They
       are in a beautiful coastal city nearly sell out every game
       probably avg 4700 fans we rarely get over 3k. If they are able
       to get 500k for the coach from donors could they match that with
       NIL? As a mid major with a war chest of 500-600k lot of things
       can happen. But I think resources aside Charleston would always
       be good because of the location fan support and Pat Kelsey they
       play a beautiful selfless brand of basketball. Policelli i will
       remember as a largely solid player who was here during a lot of
       turmoil and took a huge step his last year. TSM i will remember
       as an all time player and you can tell the way Geno talks about
       him he thinks so too.

       It has been reported Charleston NIL is over a million bucks. I
       doubt stony brook is even 90% close to that NIL

       If they went to the A10 next year they would be middle of the
       pack thats another reason im hopeful for Stony Brook Charleston
       will be gone soon so will Delaware.

       I don't know where Geno got that figure that we're 13th in the
       CAA in budget. Official reported numbers to the Department of
       Education for 2022 are below
       CAA 2022 Men's basketball expenditures
       School
       Expenditures
       College of Charleston
       Northeastern University
       Hofstra University
       Drexel University
       University of Delaware
       Stony Brook University
       Monmouth University
       Towson University
       William & Mary
       Elon University
       University of North Carolina Wilmington
       Campbell University
       North Carolina A & T State University
       Hampton University
       I generally like Geno, think he's a great interview, and even
       defended his extension at the time, but I thought those comments
       were whiny (an untrue). Yes the College Charleston has a huge
       advantage in budget and NIL, but that was also essentially Stony
       Brook when they were in the AE.

       Most of these budgets line up with what you'd expect but kudos
       to UNCW for doing a lot with less than the big guys. Would've
       expected they'd be near the top. Also yikes to Northeastern.
       Maybe their budget is elevated because they have to travel far
       to pretty much every other school? Guess it can't be cheap to
       operate in the middle of Boston.

       Yeah, that's closer to what I would have expected. Maybe he's
       referring exclusively to the NIL budget.

       he said a concept that i've been proposing... "we got hot at the
       right time".
       its somewhat better to win 10 games and get hot in march, than
       it is to win 23 and lose to a team you already beat .  our
       history proves that; we've done the latter too many times.  did
       the former once and it nearly worked.
