Much discussion on the AE boards about our new coach. Personally
I think we got a good one. Lets see who he brings in as his
assistants and give the man a chance. I think even if coach P
were here this coming season would be iffy at best . But who
knows 20 wins is possible.

Agreed. lots of people on other Forums are already calling for
Heilbron head and thinks he made a huge mistake. I say give the
man a chance to prove him self. Hopefuly he does bring in some
Ohio region talents to the East coast..

Ranked as the #16 assistant coach in the nation by ESPN
Comes from a top-level Power-5 program
Years of experience as an assistant
Key part of recruiting at tOSU
Praised by multiple NBA talents (Jared Sullinger, Evan Turner,
D'Angelo Russell)
Defensive-minded coach
This is nothing short of a home-run for the program. Coach
Pikiell got us to the point where a candidate like this would
even consider our program and for that we should all be
thankful. I think he's going to do a great job here and its
really a steal for the university and the America East. Again,
just mindblowing that a coach with this pedigree is coming here.
Obviously everyone is entitled to their opinion. I have a hard
time rationalizing criticism for this move other than
sentimental attachment to Jay Young. I think he did a great job
with Coach Pikiell but, for me, as an ~10 year supporter of SBU
Hoops this was a no-brainer decision.
Kudos to Shawn for another excellent move. He's really gone
above and beyond my expectations as an AD and has made Stony
Brook a nationally relevant job.

Ditto MD. I think Shawn made the right move. It was my
understand Shawn tried hard to get Villanova Assistant, Baker
Dunleavy but he turned us down. i still think We did good by
attracting a power 5 coach to the AE.. Give the man some time
and we will soon be back into the NCAA!!

Watching Rutgers vs Seton Hall on FS1. Very bitter sweet. On one
hand miss him on the side line, but wish him all the success. He
was nothing but a class.

Pikiell and Rutgers are having a rough time against any half-way
decent team. Here thelosing results over the last four games:
Seton Hall 72-61
Wisconsin 72-52
Penn State 60-47
Michigan State 93-65
I guess clapping your hands for 40 minutes isn't the best
strategy in winning games in the Big10? 😄
Based on the circumstances, Boales is so far having a much
better season than Pikiell!

Yeah he's going to have a tough time in the Big Ten. That team
just doesn't have a lot of Big10 level athletes. Corey Sanders
is probably the only one that would be starting on other B10
teams.
The team is obviously better than last year but that's not
saying much...Coach Pikiell has got his work cut out for him.

Great win for Coach Pikiell and Rutgers at B10 tourney opening.
In one year he has already made tremendous positive influence to
their rock bottom basketball program. Besides Stony Brook, I
also follow Maryland basketball. And now with Pikiell at
Rutgers, B10 has become a very intriguing league to follow for
me. Wish Coach Pikiell all the best. He was nothing but a class
act at Stony Brook and gave 110% here.
