       I only read this board.  I never post because of the incredible
       negativity.  Hard to believe you guys support Stony Brook
       considering the vitriol.  The football team hasn't played a
       meaningful game (CAA) yet.  Every CAA school other than Albany
       has played an FBS program.  So what if you lose early?  The
       men's basketball team has the toughest non-conference schedule
       ever.  You gonna abandon ship if they start off 3-9?

       To begin, I don't think we had more than 2000 yesterday (they
       were giving away bags to the first 1000, we got there 10 minutes
       before kickoff and they still had plenty...)  Bad weather, D2
       opponent, and anemic performances will definitely kill a crowd.
       Can't complete passes (Bednarski 1-8 for 11 yards and a pick...)
       If the O-Line can't control AIC, I don't like our chances
       against the CAA.
       Discipline was atrocious.  A lot of stupid penalties (how many
       personal fouls for taunting?).  The coaching staff started to
       get frustrated, and then they got popped too.
       Missed another XP.  Ugh.
       Bedell's knee looked bad.  First impression seemed like a season
       ender.
       Sadly, I did not see one reason to be optimistic about the
       remainder of the season.  Maybe we can compete with Elon,
       Albany, and URI.  Maybe.
       And yes, if hoops starts 3-9 and shoots 15% from the field, and
       barely beats USMMA, then I'll voice my disapproval.

       Captain.  SB is a better team then what we've been seeing
       lately. The problem we're having is with the play calling on the
       field. When you have talent on a team but it's being wasted
       because of terrible coaching, fans become upset. If SB was
       playing 5 FBS teams in a row that would be different if you want
       to compare SBB schedule to SB Football... I believe our current
       coaching staff has plateaued and aren't capable of taking us to
       the next level in the FCS. Lets see how well we do next week in
       ND. Maybe I'm wrong. I really hope I am wrong, but this is my
       observation and opinion of the team!

       A sports team is not like a child where you're morally obligated
       to support them through thick and thin. Ultimately sports is
       just entertainment. When they stop entertaining, l, they lose
       support

       2-3 years ago Coach P had assembled a truly impressive staff of
       young, up and coming assistant coaches.  They were a good group.
       Guys like Hatch, Woods, Goff, Santucci to name a few.  These
       guys were great guys, great teachers and great coaches. They
       were all positive guys and good motivators. And, they related
       well to the players. Sadly, they have all moved on. I don't
       think we should underestimate the impact of this loss.
       I mention this because having been to all 3 games this year,
       there just seems to be something missing on the "intangible"
       side.  The team just seems to be missing something in terms of
       attitude/drive to win.  I don't know how to describe it.  They
       just don't seem to present as a team that carries a lot of
       confidence, a killer instinct, a winning mentality.  Maybe that
       is difficult after an 0-2 start, but even in the season opener
       vs Bryant they didn't seemed to come out uninspired.
       One other thing:  I loved seeing Kenner get into the action
       Saturday night.  He may be the best back we have.  It is clear
       now he isn't being redshirted.  I hope he gets more consistent
       playing time the rest of the season.  Despite the fumble on the
       last series Saturday night, I thought he ran the ball extremely
       well, as he usually does. He always manages to get positive
       yardage.  He wastes no time getting into the hole and up field.
       I have been disappointed that we haven't seen more of him before
       now.

       Bedell is questionable for Saturday. Nothing serious but
       probably will sit out of this game and get ready for conference
       play. My opinion!

       This week's depth chart is out, and there are a few things I
       noticed:
       -- Much to my chagrin, the QB order remains the same.  I would
       sure have liked Hernandez to get a shot based upon what we've
       seen to date.
       -- Bedell's injury can't be too bad because he's still listed as
       the starter.  The disappointing thing for me is that Kenner is
       still down at #4.  Based upon Coker's performance to date, I
       would like to have seen Kenner move up.
       -- The wholesale juggling of tackles and guards continues.  I'm
       no expert on OL play.  But it seems to me that if the coach
       keeps shifting guards and tackles around, especially from one
       side of the OL to the other, it probably will lead to assignment
       confusion and miscues.
       -- No kick returners are listed, but I'd be surprised if Bedell
       is still returning kicks this week, if he has any kind of injury
       at all.\
       -- Connor Davis must be injured, as he is not on the depth chart
       at DE, and has been replaced by Anuh.
       -- Graham Ball has been listed as the primary PL every week, but
       Popek has started each time.  Any thoughts?

       I didn't see Connor Davis go down but it's hard to tell from the
       stands if he got hurt or not.... I really hop RS/F Anuh plays
       well at the DE position so Davis can go back to where he
       belongs, TE.. Geeeees!!!!!

       Conner Davis was in street close on Sat with a noticeable limp.
