       It’s not a commuter school anymore. That’s such an outdated
       slight. Problem is there’s no strong event coordination - it’s
       gotten better this year but there’s not one unified group that’s
       in charge of all campus activities, thus leading to a fractured
       system where multiple groups compete with one another for event
       time. There’s not enough incentive for students to go to games
       because they don’t feel like the massive events that they are at
       other schools. Part of that is because of the lack of
       tailgating.

       This past Spring the SBU Coaches visited every HS in NY NJ CT
       and many schools in MD DC PA and VA and invited all of the best
       players from those schools to their prospects camp and 1000 HS
       players came to the 6 camps on campus (people on this site
       should go and see all the great talent that is interested in
       SBU). During the Summer all the FBS schools have their camps and
       that’s where the 3, 4 and 5 star players go to be recruited not
       FCS schools. SBU and the rest of the FCS schools have to stay on
       top players and hope they can land them once they don’t get the
       FBS offers.
       I know last years 2019 class is not about Keith Winfrey only.
       Aidan Kaler was the best LB on LI last year and he could have
       walked on at a few FBS schools but chose to come here he will be
       on the field a lot next year and there are at least a half dozen
       other players who will be out there including the PK from NJ who
       hurt his leg and redshirted.

       weve done the math on this forum before.  happy to hear
       corrections as these are mere shots in the dark.
       lavalle holds 12.3k
       assume 500 parents/friends
       4k locals, donors
       500 alums
       500 staff, faculty, admin, athletics, etc
       maybe 500 students
       other?
       and that's 6000.  with conservative estimates (meaning, larger
       #s than i really think in reality).
       that leaves 6300 seats.  we all know they count tickets, not
       bodies.
       options remaining to fill those seats:
       -the over 10k students living on/around campus (not even there
       by thursday night)
       -more locals sitting in traffic on nicholls road when they can
       instead watch B1G games on national TV
       [/quote]
       From this compilation, the number that jumps out at you is "500
       students." Yikes. I get that its a commuter school but the
       school has over 26,000 students.

       Stony Brook feels like a commuter school due to the lack of
       school spirit. But in reality its actually a fairly large
       residential campus, the largest in the SUNY system. Over 10,000
       students live on campus and 83% of first-year students reside on
       campus. That is enormous potential if you put a conscious effort
       to tap the student body.
       Those are the potential future fans that will follow the program
       and donate to the school forever if they build an attachment
       over the four years. But it seems like athletic department at
       SBU is ran as a silo with little coordination with the rest of
       the University

       I am done with this site until people realize this is SBU and
       not an FBS School

       i think that even though it's not a "commuter" school in the
       sense that so many live on campus- that effectively is
       misleading, because for the purposes of football, if youre not
       on campus on a weekend, youre essentially a commuter.
       also- i dont think the issue is weak event coordination.  the
       issue is students are distracted & disaffected, leave campus,
       and even if on campus, don't want to watch football.

       Not sure why there's this big argument over whether or not a kid
       is a 3* or not. At the FCS level if you're getting a 3* AT ALL
       you're doing something right. Many times those guys have offers
       to be depth players/walk-ons at P5 schools. Even the 2* guys are
       a big deal at the FCS level. I wouldn't put those guys down and
       we get at least a couple each year. Getting talent into the
       program for our level hasn't been a problem (with the big
       exception of QB). I give Coach P credit for that.

       One last thing about how star players committing to FCS schools.
       It's all about recruiting..
