What about non-students? Suffolk County alone has about 1.5 million people. Nassau has another 1.4 million. Even if you only count the eastern half of Nassau, that is over 2 million people. If SB football could draw one-half of 1% of that, it would add an additional 10,000 spectators.
SB should be Suffolk's team for all sports, especially football. It is absurd that more of the community doesn't attend games. Reasons? Newsday's vapid coverage, not enough social media publicity, mediocre community relations. What else? What more could the Athletics Department do?
