Any self-respecting program would cut face immediately. The main
roadblock we have is New York State being notoriously awful with
funding. SUNY is probably the worst state education system and
it’s a shame that a school as good as Stony Brook has to suffer
under its oppressive limitations. I long for the day when we
break free of their chains. We’ve been economically screwed over
by the state for far too long.

Spoken list a true student -:) Back in the day when I was a
student, I used to be the same way, so I'm not being critical
here.............
SUNY, despite its financial crunch, is still an outstanding
system overall. Tell me where you get an education from a
quality school at this price anywhere else in the country. To
me, that is the bottom line.
Athletically, we've come a helluva long way since my days at
SBU. We all want more; that's human nature. Although I firmly
believe a coaching change is warranted, there is no way that SBU
eats the kind of money that VA_Seawolf mentions above. Not a
chance. Additionally, there is no way SH would fire him, since
he's responsible for giving him the extension in the first
place. I totally understand all the venting about the coach on
this board, but his removal ain't gonna happen until his current
contract expires.

100% agree. Suck it up fans. We are in for a long ride with this
coaching staff.

Let's assume SB doesn't have or want to spend the money to hire
a new coach. If you were Priore, what would you do to make this
Football Program one that would contend for the CAA title/make
the FCS playoffs every year?

Run up the gut???? Thats all. This is all coach P has to offer.
Same old story, year in and year out!!

Ok, I get it, but Heilbrun is his boss. If he says "we need to
talk about how to run a more creative and modern offense and
other ways to improve the team" don't you think Priore would be
responsive? You're more knowledgeable about the situation than
I am, so this is a real question, not a snarky comment framed as
question.

Kind of like Cashman asking Girardi to use more
Analytics.......one of the reasons Joe was fired, since he was
somewhat resistant to change.
Sure, good idea, but SH may be asking something of him, that
he's not capable of delivering on. Again, I didn't watch all of
the games this year, but to all of us, Fields (who I liken to a
Lamar Jackson type) can do it with his legs and arm, and the
offense actually run by CP didn't utilize Fields' talent to the
maximum at all; not even close. I think CP is frozen in the
Larry Csonka, ground-and-pound era (sorry if I'm showing my age
here).
Does anyone know if SH reads this board?

Sure, Coach P theoretically could open up the offense and
utilize the talent he's got, but we all know he's not going to
do that. As recently as 2016 we were still lining up under
center for every play while pretty much everyone else stopped
doing that ages ago. Not exactly sure how Felus/Bache handle
their coordinator duties, but perhaps bringing in a dedicated OC
who has experience with the read-option or air raid system would
do the trick. I doubt Coach P would hand over those playcalling
duties though.
Buying him out might be steep this year, but after next season
assuming it ends up just like this one (little reason to think
it'll be much better) the buyout figure drops considerably and
it'll be a whole lot easier to justify.

If our AD starts seeing empty seats which has happened all
ready a buyout becomes financially reasonable.

That only applies to private schools. SB is a small school state
program. Not going to happen!!
