“Chuck is a young 62,” Priore said while referring to himself…”
That’s a bit bizarre.

"Stony Brook has been in a mediocre malaise since joining the
CAA in football back in 2013 and has not yet won a conference
title. Including the opening night game on Sept. 1, the
Seawolves are 48-49 overall (33-36 CAA) in that timeframe. This
could be an indication that the program has plateaued."
Yes. Correct. There is a large enough sample size to prove that
Priore is nothing more than an under .500 level coach. He should
not be optimistic about being rewarded for mediocrity.

Barring a last-minute change of heart or rejection from the
President of the University, Chuck got the extension. Believe
it's in the 2-4 year range.

Stony Brook beat Delaware last season 34-17. All this tell us
is that the Navy program has completely turned to crap!

there must be something more going on that we know about... i'm
not as anti-Priore as you guys are but we dont know what goes on
behind closed doors, or what the priorities are. for example if
the players are graduating, staying out of trouble, maybe that's
what the administration really wants.
then again, some of you guys DO actually know what goes on
behind closed doors!

This should look familiar in NY sports circles. With NY
Yankees, Cashman/Boone look out for each other, and say things
to defend each other, to help keep their jobs, as Hal remains
unplugged from the day-to-day. Assuming rumors to be true,
same can be said for Heilbron/Priore, and Heilbron/Ford.
Looking out for each other while President sits back idly,
thinking that all is well, since we just elevated to CAA.

Well, I think I see it this way:
Priore Negatives:
- Predictable, run-heavy offense that hasn't had a good passer
in a very long time (be it from recruitment or transfer issues,
what have you)
- He doesn't consistently show the energy that I'd expect from a
coach hungry for a championship, but that could be more
reflective of his age rather than anything else
- His teams at times don't seem disciplined, and his interviews
don't give off the idea that he strongly instills that in his
players
Priore Positives:
- His graduation rates are high
- His program APR is very high (Higher than every other state
school in the conference but Rhode Island, who tied us at 973
and W&M, who scored 980). In fact, 2020-2021 was the highest it
has ever been at SBU as a D1 program
- While I do not know how coaches see him, his public reputation
is sound
- I've talked to him, we used to go to the same gym. He's an
introvert, but seems like a decent human being
The last "major" coach to be fired at SBU was Nagle with MLax,
who was widely seen in a negative light and was costing his
program recruits and reputation. Priore's coaching may not
always satisfy us, and the on field product may not be
transcendent, but he is NOT an embarrassment to this school
because - while we sometimes wish otherwise - I have to agree
with him that winning is not the sole thing that defines a
collegiate football program.
While I think there's something to be said about bringing in a
new face to a program, and the guy is aging so one will
eventually appear, I do not blame SH for extending Priore. I
would, however, beg them to spend some real money on a good OC
who can properly prepare a passer.

thanks for this redwyn... i was getting the sense there's more
to it. i suspect you are right.
maybe we sometimes compare ourselves to the P5 programs where it
truly is win at all costs, and then coaches are fired in a year
or two, sometimes midseason, pay out the rest of a contract and
then pay out an even bigger one to the next coach. losing
continuity and relationships all at the same time. it might not
be better, but certainly fits our instant gratification world.

just like Lawton, while Seba Nekhet is an experienced runner who
provides an effective change of pace.
