Some good stuff to check out. Look where JMU, Harvard and NDSU
rank .. ELON is on this list to but all the way at the bottom.
SB is not listed.

It’s a bullshit ranking system by 24/7, who is just trying to
make a name for itself and it’s still early to rank all teams.
By the way, last year Stony brook was ranked higher than JMU.
Just take these rankings with a grain of salt, especially the
ones outside of the top 30.
Who would be a good replacement for Coach P?

These rankings are only ever decent for very elite players. If
you're not an elite FBS program pulling in top 300 recruits, I
don't think it's worth your time looking into these things. Also
the recruiting websites don't pay any attention to new york
recruits. ESPN doesn't have a single NY high school player
evaluated for the class of 19.

A 6-5 season may get Coach P renewed, but that wouldn't be
enough to convince me unless our losses are one score games
against good competition. If we win the games we should win, and
then lose close ones to JMU, Air Force, and a couple other
strong teams, maybe I'd go for that. If it's our typical 5-6
season then forget about it.

I think this is something that can work in our favor, especially
if/when we move up. The northeast is under-recruited. There's
talent, but teams aren't necessarily looking for it here.
They're looking in Texas, California, and the South mostly. Our
conference affiliation gives us recruiting ties into Maryland
and Virginia which have plenty of talent that will head north
for the right coaching staff.

Very good question. My first move would be to try and get Lyle
Hemphill back here since we were a top 5 defense while he was
here. The wildcard there is we don't know how good of a coach
he'll be vs a coordinator, but his performance here with us
makes him worth taking a chance on. I think we could poach him
from Wake Forest as that gives him the chance to bolster his
resume with a HC gig.
Outside of Lyle I'd have to start digging to turn up candidates
that would be good, but given the reputation of the university,
and the large salary we're willing to pay (by FCS standards) we
should be able to at the very least poach a top coordinator from
another program. I'm sure there are guys on the JMU or NDSU
sideline who would love the chance to coach here. If all else
fails, we got Coach P from a D3 school, so looking there has
worked for us before.
I've been very hard on Coach P lately, but he's an offensive
minded coach who won many games for us when he's had the talent
in the program to compete. I want to give him his chance this
year and the schedule is lining up to do just that.

Jeremy Rucket is from Lindenhurst and was a 4 star TE recruited
by Ohio State . I watched him play last season and he is the
real deal. But for the most part, yeah. The NE is not a breading
grounds for recruits.

It's not even that the NE isn't a breeding ground for recruits.
It's that recruiting services don't pay attention to NE
recruits. If Rucket had committed to Stony Brook as junior and
shut down his recruitment, I bet he wouldn't be rated. When the
services find out he has offers from Ohio State and the likes,
they start watching film and giving scores. It's also why Elon
appears to have great recruits

Would like to see us start a discussion on what the strengths we
have on the team Offense, Defense, ST's and get some thoughts on
this especially with Media day coming up this week. I know we
have all sorts of Pro and Con Coach P' folks here, but that
aside and either downplaying last season's team or talking about
all of us being the next Carnac the Magnificent with our
strength of record, here's some of my takes.
Offense- I like the new kid from Temple (Marshall) who has come
in. Looks like a nice fit to assist JC in his throwing routes.
Of course we have Cal D coming back and Anderson and Wingate so
if they can stay healthy that would be great. RB's I think we
are loaded with punishing Donne L and even Gowins (thus I am
guessing why we are looking at RS Isiah White-but we do have
that new NCAA rule for the 4 games so who knows). Only real
weakness I see is with the OL is Zimmerman who last year got a
beat a lot on inside, and on the FG's they came through him in
the Spring game- so hopefully they have been getting that ironed
out.
Defense- or course looks strong across the board and with our LB
core hopefully they can continues to cause havoc on our
opponents. Hopefully some of the new DB's can make an impact GT
Jefferson from Temple) and I personally like Helsop as a DB and
reminds me of a smaller TB. Hope Contressa gets a lot more reps
I think our pass rush will need to be a bit more "creative" but
Coach Bob has done a nice job. Hopefully Kamara and Scarbrough
can standout. Note sure if the Peterson kid is ready to hang
yet-
so the only weakness I see here is in the DL depth as the season
goes along.
ST-looks like we have a lot of guys coming back to help. Donnie
Washington and Donnie L on the Punt return and KO's I hope can
make a major impact. It was nice to see Courtney had hit that 49
yarder in the Spring Game so hopefully Coach P will give him
some more opportunities- but we also know Coach P likes to play
the position game. Surprised that the kid they brought in 2
years ago (Prubin) has not cracked the starting line-up but good
for Courtney as a former WO getting the scholarship out of it.
Lukansky brings back his high Sky kicks and the KO return team
has been solid (but with the change in the NCAA fair catch rule)
not sure if Coach T will change anything Nolan returns as the
Punter (I was told he co-led all of FBS and FCS with his inside
the 20 balls), and they are bringing a new Aussie as well.
Barber comes back as the long snapper so that's good and Nolan
is coming back to hold on PATs and FG's.
And there is my best and only shot as to how we'll do on the
player side.

CBSSN owns most of the MWC TV contract, so I'd guess that's
where the game will be. Most likely VIA an online stream.
