Stony Brook to the CAA?

I can't find the article but I've heard that Newsday is
reporting that Stony Brook is in talks with the CAA and could
join as early as June.

Newsday reported a similar article months ago... Are you sure
you are talking about a new article?

Yeah, I had the same thought because i had seen the earlier
article. I don't get newsday so I can't see their content
online. If anyone can I'd like to hear if they're correct.
Here's a thread on the CAAzone about it

I get access to Newsday. No Article released yet... Hope its not
a false statement. Some in the CAAZone dislike the idea of SB
joining the CAA, others think it would be a good addition. Too
early yet to worry about it, but if SBU makes it into the CAA it
will be impressive. That will really be another step forward, so
fast!!! We know CAA basketball and football would place us ahead
of many. Just being in the CAA will boost recruiting so much.
But, it will be a challenge to compete there for the first few
years (in MBB and WBB, not in Football)!

it seems like Newsday published it... (maybe) and the pulled the
article off the web. Is that possible?

There's another thread on Delaware's message board. I went over
there shared a couple thoughts with them.

And it seems Hofstra might not be able to block us as some
thought. I think Hofstra and Stony Brook being in the same
conference would create a ton of interest across the island for
both of us and possibly set up the CAA with nice bargaining
chip.

I'm reading the thread. Some Blue Hens fans are totally
arrogant... I guess the historical success of their program has
gotten the to that point.
But also they stated that Hofstra alone doesn't have the power
to block SBU getting into the CAA. If that is the case, then it
is up to the other CAA administrators to allow us to join

I saw this on the AE Boards. This would be our next logical
step and I know we have some fan support with Maine, UNH and
James Madison. Great boost for the school and the athletics
department if true. Lets keep our fingers crossed !
