I can't be the only one sorta disappointed with Heilbron? He's made little progress with the athletic department. Aside from the Indoor Facility he's not been worth his salt. What else has he done? Stony Brook is still stranded in the FCS and America East! He talks a big game about taking Stony Brook to the next level... but it's all talk, no action.

Yes, New York sucks. SUNY is awful for operating dozens of useless shithole colleges upstate for no reason, I get that it hamstrings him financially. But that's his job to stick up for his department and demand more funding at the expense of those places. What else is new now that Heilbron is here?

Part of the conference thing is not Shaun's fault. BrookLand did a piece on it, as did some random site; Hofstra blocked SBU's admission to the CAA as a full member. That definitely would've boosted credibility all around. That was before he arrive, but since then not much has proven the school Is worthy of moving up to a better conference.

As for money rolling in, or not, don't forget who donated half of the money for the indoor practice facility, Glenn Dubin, a known associate of Jeffrey Epstein. Stony Brook had no problem taking his money, and naming the indoor facility after him. It was only after the Epstein saga played out at they decided to not use his name. But he won't donate anymore. Say bye to the biggest cash cow. And Alumni I talked to at Homecoming told me they won't give another cent till Chuck is canned.

Oh and Governor Cuomo killed the funding for LaValle upgrades, which by god it desperately needs. The elevator to the media/VIP suites is the slowest thing EVER.

WOW!! I didn't know there was a connection between Dubin and Epstein. Wasnt Dubin their biggest supporter?? Stony Brook is screwed for many years to come. Good thing that indoor facility got built when it did..
