I only went to Stony Brook because at least it had football...
unknown low level football yes, but still technically D1. At
least we were winning in the Big South then. People said we
would be FBS in 10 years back then, lol. Heilbron has mishandled
so much.
Dropping football would be unforgivable.

It would be a shame, but it would at least offer some logical
basis for why they retained Coach P (which many of us are
searching for). The program has been in a steady decline over
several years and the AD omitted this fact in his latest
“Together We Transform” letter. Instead, he made it all about
this season. Yet, this season was the culmination of mediocrity
over several years going back, in my opinion.

Good point, the decision to keep Priore may be an indication
there’s uncertainty about whether FB will continue…or be
terminated like Hofstra’s program. I’d rather have no FB than a
bottom dweller that siphons funds from more pressing priorities.

Good point..

What a poor example. You use a bunch of schools with no national
relevance to highlight how SBU should consider dropping
football? None of those schools have the profile of SBU. Our
academic peers are in the Big Ten getting nationally televised
games every weekend... not whatever the hell half those schools
you listed are doing.

Another way of looking at it: If SB already has a national
profile then FB isn’t needed for attaining one.

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
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.
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.

But... it doesn't. Every flagship of every other state has 100
times more recognition than us. Boise State, the second in
command in Idaho, has more than us, as does Utah St, Mississippi
St, Colorado St, etc

The Citadel chose not to renew their HC contract after a 4-7
season. What’s SBU problem going 2-9?

US News and World Report 2022-23:
"Boise State University is ranked #331-440 out of 443 National
Universities"
"Stony Brook University--SUNY is ranked #77 out of 443 National
Universities"
Apparently, "recognition" doesn't translate very well into
academic success.

Crediting him with those two "wins" is being generous.
