JMU is good but they cant touch our academic profile .  The best they got is graduating  Master's Degree students.  SBU is an AAU Member with  the ability to graduate  MD's as well as PHD's  in multiple disciplines.  It is more than football  to move up .

Exactly this. The academics matter more than the sports. You can build a sports program fairly easily, especially if you're FBS playing high profile teams. It's much harder to build up the academic side of the house. Most people don't understand most of realignment comes down to academics. This puts SBU in a great position going forward to move up to a better conference.

Of course when Heilbron talks about "ambitions" in this case, he could also mean something like an NCAA tournament Sweet 16 appearance or FCS national title (lmao yeah right  ).
