Looks like he is looking to make the pros and can't do much buried on the Michigan depth chart.  This means he'll be fired up to show folks what he can do. A  win-win for us. (Some injury issues at Michigan but reports are he is fully recovered).

The fact that a guy with this pedigree and talent would head to Stony Brook speaks volumes about SB's reputation - the opportunity for exposure (Will Tye, for example) is just part of SB's current attraction.

Absolutely! Plenty of guys have been drafted in the early rounds from the FCS too in recent years. Even Division 2 kids are being drafted in the second round now, so being in a league like the CAA, and having games against prominent teams like JMU will do wonders for him.

My only "concern" is does he stick around for 2019 if he plays well this year? Carbone is a senior and I'd expect at least some drop off between him and whoever the QB in 2019 is. Coach P might be gone too, so if he plays well this year, I wouldn't expect him back in 2019. Great for us in either case. I hope this is finally the guy who gets drafted out of SBU.

Totally agree. My only concern is with Carbone accuracy. Any good QB can make a receiver look good. Unfortunately, Carbone is not one of those accurate QB. Just saying. Joshua Zamot, is a freshman sitting in the wings and I have high hopes for this kid. Hopefully he can continue where he left off in High school....
