I like the highlights I've seen from him. Junior College stats
leave something to be desired though. I wouldn't be shocked if
he's coming in as a preferred walk-on, and that he signed a
financial aid agreement like we see with a lot of football walk
ons.

Coach Boals is not playing around and is putting together a real
nice club.

Really an interesting pick up as an assistant coach and former
ESPN Analyst . Want to see our schedule see if any D3 teams
will be on it.

Very good point about that Seawolf97..Last season we had two
div3 schools come to the Brook. That was unacceptable. Coach
Pikiell always told me teams didn't want to play us at our
house, mainly because of Warney. I'm not so sure about that, but
who knows.
As a season ticket holder I dont want to be watching no div3
school play SB.. I will voice my concern to Bowles if that
continues....

I like the Asst. Coach pick, as well. Certainly comes with the
creds. And, am I the only one that noticed he looks just like
Jay Young?!?!? I am curious about one thing though--with that
experience behind him, why would he have left coaching to become
an ESPN commentator?
Re: the OOC schedule, we seem to go through this discussion
every year. I suspect that the inability to get enough
interesting D-1 games at home has several contributing factors.
Warney may have been one, but certainly far from the only one.
I think it probably has more to do with $$, location out on the
Island, lack of desire to play an AE team at their home, and
several others. I agree that playing two D-3 teams is not
appealing. But, I believe that the USMMA game had a lot to do
with the relationship of Pikiell/SBU to their coach. My guess
is that we'll see at least one (maybe 2) D-2 or even one D-3
team again this year. But, I'm O.K. with that so long as the
rest of the schedule is strong. I'm hearing that we'll likely
be playing both Rutgers and Ohio State. Add a couple of the
Ivy's, and maybe a MAC team, and we'll have the beginnings of a
very fun OOC season, don't you think?

I just saw that Thrower's case has been continued until 7/19
and McGrew's to 8/8--another blow to swift justice. Anyway,
looks like the roster finalization may be delayed just a bit
longer.

Nice to see Garcia, Almonacy and Iroegbu officially added to the
roster. But, does anyone know what happened to Junior Saintel?
I would have expected him to be added as well.

Does anyone have a handle on the situation with Junior Saintel?
At the Meet-and-Greet with Coach B. a couple of weeks ago it was
indicated that he just had to finish off a couple of courses at
junior college, and that he would arrive on campus shortly. I'm
beginning to get suspicious. Looking at his school's calendar,
it seems that the second summer session is already over. I hope
SBU doesn't have another Ben Homes (Football) situation on its
hands!!
