       The ceiling for this program is mediocrity for at least the next
       three seasons.

       Such a disgrace.
       Wonder if this is what pushes Shawn to finally fire Chuck in an
       attempt to get them all back. Though the players had to have
       talked to Shawn before deciding to leave, so maybe he already
       heard their concerns and still decided to keep Chuck anyways,
       wouldn't surprise me

       That is a LOT of offensive talent leaving the team. I don't
       blame any of those guys leaving this program that is slowly
       descending into irrelevance.
       [quote]Going back to the end of last season, as I evaluated our
       program, I felt that Chuck Priore deserved the opportunity to
       continue leading us forward – and I still believe that. Simply
       put, Coach Priore will return to the Seawolves sideline for his
       18th season next fall. The bottom line is that we have to get
       better and we now have an opportunity to address some key issues
       both on and off the field that will strengthen our
       program.[/quote]
       What the hell is this statement from the TWT blog? "We now have
       an opportunity to address some key issues on and off the field"
       is the lamest statement. You had the last three years to fix
       this dumpster fire. This whole statement was one of the most
       aggravating things I have ever seen written down.
       Heilbron and Priore need to get on the first flight out of
       Macarthur

       It's even more aggravating because our competition is doing the
       right thing, the exact opposite. Delaware fired Danny Rocco last
       year a season after making it to the FCS final four, and the new
       hire Ryan Carty beat FBS Navy and took them back to the
       playoffs. Now, Towson is firing Ambrose because he hasn't made
       it to the playoffs since 2018 – the same as Priore. But our
       incompetent leadership can't do the same. Bunch of clowns.

       Zamot quit the team, he is finished with school after this
       semester. He did not enter the portal.
       Priore SCREWED McKee, burned a year of his eligibility for
       what......to be benched. When this guy doesn't like you or what
       you do....he hurts you. He doesn't know how to leave someone in
       to work out the bugs. All scholarships can end for anyone
       entering the portal at the end of the semester and Priore WILL
       end them. So if they have a change of heart or not picked up
       they lost everything TEAM, Scholarship and any perks that go
       along with it. Priore will NOT take them back. Walk-ons leaving
       in droves.

       Not sure if anyone caught this from last week's TWT from
       Heilbron:
       "Going back to the end of last season, as I evaluated our

       To say that this has been an extremely difficult year would be a
       vast understatement. The injuries that our team has endured
       throughout the season certainly have contributed to our record
       to date and, while I acknowledge that injuries are a part of the
       game, our situation is unlike any that I have ever experienced."
       As we predicted it is "injuries" fault again this season and I'm
       sure the same excuse will be used for Geno.

       My God... he actually did extend this inept bum.... wow.
       Consider me DONE with SBU athletics then. He gave him the
       premature extension in 2018 before things started going off the
       rails... and now he extended him before 2022 clearly and now
       looks like a gigantic fool.
       Get priore THE FUCK out of this program and SH along with him.
       We could be so much more than this.

       Disagree... It last as long as Priore remains the football
       coach. We're losing a ton of guys because we can't keep our
       talent. If SH canned Priore and got someone competent in there
       we could CONSERVATIVELY be back to .500 next year and in
       contention for the conference title in two years. But that's
       ONLY if we get someone good which we'll never have because
       Chucky P ain't going anywhere.
       I"m honestly shocked. When Mike Houston left JMU for ECU, JMU
       hired Cignetti who was the Elon coach at the time. Schools in
       this league trading coaches isn't an abnormal occurrence, but
       with SH at the helm, he'd rather keep Coach P in that seat
       rather than go out and get a Coach who has proven they can win
       in this conference. There's no reason SBU shouldn't be perennial
       top 20 team every year given our academic profile and what we
       spend. Dont' forget that Priore is one of the highest paid
       Coaches in the FCS despite making decisions that even your child
       playing Madden wouldn't make.
       We could be so much better than where we are and it's painful to
       see because during the Big South years we were clearly trending
       in the right direction.

       This is so upsetting. Heilbron has DOUBLED Priore salary during
       his time at Stony Brook - Priore made $534,000 dollars in 2021!
       And what has Stony Brook gained from this investment? 13  wins
       and 25 losses over the last four years. I really don't like
       calling for peoples jobs, but if Priore stays, Heilbron needs to
       go. Heilbron is lucky that local news media neglects Stony Brook
       athletics because the outrage here should be universal.

       Yeah, this is really bad news.  I haven't followed the team much
       in earnest the last 2 seasons, due to the FloSports contract,
       but this is highly disappointing.  Heilbron made it a point when
       he came to SBU, that football would be his focal point, as it
       was for him in Oregon St.  He certainly has not delivered.  He
       took the easy way out here, and he should be held accountable.
       As I've taught my kids throughout their formative years, "it
       ALWAYS starts at the top", and he is culpable for the team's
       demise.
