       SBU Football 2017
       By: SBUFootball Date: November 21, 2016, 3:11 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Now is the time to make the changes to the offensive game
       planning & coaching if needed to bring a winning program to SBU
       in 2017.
       They have lived & died by putting it all on the defense; now is
       the time to make the changes needed & encompass it in the game
       planning for winter & spring ball. You cannot put it all on a
       non experience QB; that's asking way to much from that player &
       you half to have a back up plan at QB.
       This team has good players on both sides of the ball it's how
       you use them in the game plan that will make the different. To
       many of players were not used well in the offensive game
       planning & it showed this year & it was nice to see #33 finally
       get into the running game.
       This team needs to use more players in the short passing  game,
       RB. TE. SB.
       We need to strength the OL  & have a strong 2nd string due to
       injury throughout the year. this will come down to scouting &
       offering the right scholarship to players that will make this
       happen... this will be totally on the coaching staff.  Bringing
       in 1 year wonders has not worked out well in the last three
       years; build from within & scout players well before offering.
       With winning comes more marketing $$ & more sponsorship
       money...... it goes hand in hand.

       im not as down on the coaching staff as most of the other forum
       members here... but its obvious that something needs to change.
       think back to 2004 during the fiore era.  things were very
       different.  SB was a different place.  the athletic dept was
       still growing its bones; it had just joined most sports into Div
       I, it was staggered across multiple conferences, facilities were
       just installed, etc.  we've come a long way and also so has the
       sport of football.  its different now.
       either way I trust the administration will steer us right.  it's
       not all about winning, despite what some pundits say... its more
       than that.  GO SB

       You half to be competitive & I do agree that winning not
       everything; but you can't have a program that is 119-221 teams
       on offensive stats.
       There are issue that half to be seriously resolved & it's not
       just a QB issue.
       The team news a new direction on play calling & yes i do like a
       strong run game also..

       The only way Coach P is gone is if the President, AD or the Big
       Boosters want him gone and at this time I don't see that
       happening
       The play calling was spit for the 2016 season by Coach P and the
       QB/OC Coach
       They already have 5 very good players committed for the 2017
       Class and they have some excellent recruits that they are
       pursuing right now so as long as the recruits keep coming they
       will stay with Coach P however with about 25 juniors returning
       for next year plus a real good sophomore and freshmen Class
       coming back I doubt there will be a coaching change at the top
       By the way the job that the Lyle DC turned down last year was
       the DC at the University of Hawaii

       Lyle & his family must be committed to LI; that's a nice job he
       turned down with significant more more....
       I love going to games & i just don't want to see another season
       like 2016 on play calling; i had several coaches asked me why
       SBU didn't use certain players & all i could do was put my hands
       up in the air...
       We have some really good players on this team & having more
       depth next year will help...

       I assume coach P returns  and   a set of excuses will pop up in
       Nov 2017  why we are 5-6 or worse again ..  Four years of being
       mediocre is unacceptable.

       Just read the article about the O coordinator & O offensive Line
       coach being together a second year & making a differences &
       installing these new explosive  plays. Gentlemen & ladies they
       ran 15 plays on the average this year & heard they have a play
       book of 75 plays currently.
       To read this from the AD i was surprised; it sounded more like a
       scripted article from a head coach.
       Nothing ill change unless the current leadership on leading the
       offensive program is changed.; we have the players & now it is
       time to install a program that will work with the players we
       have on the field.
       This program has the worst short yardage passing game in the
       CAA; this must change. When it does it will help open the long
       ball & the running game.
       This is the last quote i will make this year.....
       Actions speak louder then words.....

       I agree 100% SBU fan. SH is aware of this issue and I am sure if
       he had the funds in place to make a coaching change he would.
       But he cant. SB can't afford to take another lose by letting
       coach P go early. They took a big hit with Fiore a few years
       back..
       I hate to say it but, I see 2 more years with coach P..

       As they say... make your weaknesses your strengths.
       Excuses doesn't achieve results....

       With the staff  staying the same I don't see any real
       improvement for 2017 .   Maybe we can afford to let Coach P go
       after 2017 and start fresh from he top down.
