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.
[/quote]
Another way of looking at it: If SB already has a national
profile then FB isn’t needed for attaining one.
[/quote]
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
[/quote]
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.
[/quote]
It may not, but ask 100 people on the street who knows Boise
State vs who knows Stony Brook and Boise State will win in a
blowout.

hasnt caught on in the area. the only other product is LIU, NCC
and USMMA.

Any player that has been here through Covid-19 and has seen no
improvement and only regression and sees the program floundering
every day should really consider moving on

Rumor has it Campi, she does care and is working her way around
to athletics. She’s been cleaning house in every department
since day one of being hired. She fired a ton of VP within the
departments. This is what I was told by the Associate AD. You
know who he is….

You named a bunch of tiny D3 schools who no one would miss if
they closed down tomorrow. They barely even offer a college
institution, much less an athletic program.
Ambrose had a winning record and Towson had the smarts to fire
him for underperforming. This only makes Heilbron look like a
larger fool for holding on to a coach that did magnitudes worse
than Towson over the last 4 years.

How can you of all people say that Chair.
College football absolutely was catching on here at SBU when
they were in the Big South and going to the playoffs. Much
credit to Hofstra for shutting down the football program of
course, but the point is. SB was filling the stadium and a few
times more. I remember one playoff game where we had 11,000 fans
attend.
Bottom line. People like to cheer for winning teams, not losers.
If SBU actually cared about their football and basketball, they
could dominate Long Island and garnish national attention, but
they dont care.
