Drone footage shows progress at SUNY Stony Brook where an alternate care facility is being erected by New York District. The facility will be home to 1038 non-COVID19 beds in order to ease the burden on the New York Hospital System.

I believe this pandemic will change our lives forever, in many different ways going forward.

As far as for colleges and university the pain and financial loss look to be crippling for a lot of schools. There is a strong case that SBU could cut some sports programs. Football could be one of those sports. Remember Hofstra did just that in much better times.

Which one of you is going to ask to fire Coach P... LMAO

  Meeeee!!

One thing for sure, with NY state budget cuts almost a guarantee at this point, the new SBU President is going to have to make some tough decisions, and given her non-sports resume, one can surmise that cutting some programs can be on the list.  I'm guessing basketball and football will be safe, but who knows at this point.

Track and field or cross country seem like the most insignificant. But men’s soccer also isn’t that great.

But again, I just hope the cuts don’t fall on us. Slash funding to SUNY Fredonia or Potsdam or Morrisville first before you touch anything related to us. Those schools have enrollments smaller than our worst football attendance numbers.
