The attendance number was "accurate" based on the tickets sold/given away/etc.  That's the old "paid attendance doesn't equal actual attendance" gimmick.

You are 100% correct that 12k definitely did not attend.  I doubt we had more than 7000 people (the old student section was maybe half full, same with the "bleachers"), but i'm sure that a lot of folks bought tickets and just didn't come.

The other shady number was ESPN's app reporting game-time temperature at 67...

Also... Stony Brook is lying their as*s off with attendance. No way there were 12,000 people there last night. There were seats empty everywhere. Last year was a record, this year not so much. They are not fooling anyone but themselves with these numbers

They are counting all the tickets they give us season ticket holders when we walked into wolfstock. I questioned this last year at the gate but got the Deer in the headlight look from everyone. I was told to write to Christina about this issue!!!

Priore on CAA coaches news call defending his QB rotation plan.  boy this guy is stubborn.  our offense is inept, and he refuses to make changes.  he's like the captain of the Titanic, refusing to believe that his ship is sinking.  he is riding this thing into the ground.  sad but true. 

as for the comments about favoring one receiver over the rest of the receiving corps, that's just the way that SB offense runs its passing game.  seriously, its no different from a few years ago when all the passes went to Norrell, then recently, Coxson got all the passes.  Now its Boulden's turn.  its the way the coaches call plays.  you can see the route running has also not changed much from the Norrell days either.  opposing coaches can just look back at last year's game film to see what SB is going to run this week.  its pathetic.

One last comment about the Towson game:  I challenge Coach P to step up like a man and take responsibility for the lousy play calling that led to our defeat, instead of blaming the boys for "not finishing".  that is just so pathetic and chicken $hit on his part.

I give the coaches a D- in the adjusment & coaching for this game.

The coaches are using how we finish; 4th down & 1 yard to go with 4 min left and you elect to go for a field goal wow....

What are you telling your offensive  line & players..this is so hypocritical for a coaching staff.

Head coach cannot not coach an offensive line & still stay focus on all aspects of the team.

Why we don't use the short game more often is beyound me....

Last drive we could of went down n out 1 or 2 more times & then throw a fade to a big TE; We have 2 players Davis & PJ  over  6ft 6". I do agree pour adjustments in the 2nd half by SBU & there is a serious issue w our DB in pass coverage.

ddmd. Just rewind to last season. Everything you and BFF are talking about is exactly what was happening last season as well. Clearly, coach P and his O coaches have got to go and bring in new blood. Our defense coaches are great and are doing a wonderful job..

In the last two games, we have **** open some big time pass plays by hitting the TE.  seems like we could exploit that option more.

I guess we lost one of our team captains this week? Leggerio is no longer on the roster.  any insights.
