       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’s not unreasonable to think these discussions of folding the
       football program are being had if it’s a financial burden.   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..

       The Three that have entered the transfer portal that I know
       about are Zamot ( because of covid might stiil get 2 seasons or
       1), Campbell, DeVera but I would expect at least a dozen more
       [/quote]
       Thanks Campi. Please keep us informed of future transfers..

       SJU too.
       also look at any other local college.  st. joes, adelphi, NY
       tech, farmingdale, molloy, dowling, southhampton, SCCC, old
       westbury, queens, st. francis, manhattan.  no football.  LIU is
       "new" and is half in brooklyn (though i believe the team plays
       in nassau).
       so that leaves merchant marine and nassau CC; not peers.
       in the boroughs, columbia barely serves a product 100 blocks
       north of campus.  but there is wagner, fordham, and ASA
       brooklyn.

       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.

       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.

       St, Colorado St, etc

       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.
