I’m not out of touch you are he had his contract extension last year and has two years to go and this is LI not some big sports town and as long as Chuck tows the line and keeps the program clean he has a job! If he didn’t get fired after getting blown out by Albany he never will
There were two LIC Games that were played at SBU today and I was talking with the SBU Coaches on the sidelines and as of today 9 players have entered the Transfer Portal however Monday-Wednesday the Coaches are meeting with all the returning players and telling them where they stand so they expect as many as 15-20 more could leave.
His contract was not extended last year. It was extended earlier THIS year. I get it. youre happy with 2-9 as long as Priore doesnt have kids get in trouble and keep a halfway decent GPA. I guess I'd ask why they are spending money on football at all then? Drop it. Save the money. No one is coming to games because of a GPA. The coaches are downplaying players leaving as easily replaceable acting like they never really wanted those players anyway. Great message to recruits. The facts speak for themselves. Heilbron and Emerich have run the entire department into the ground. They have driven fans and donors away and are blaming covid.
Why does Stonybrook even have a football team anymore? Do what Hofstra did and let it go. We know Priore will never get fired as long as Heilbron is here and keeps giving him new contracts.
I am taking issue with the message and the messenger when he defends the crazy situation and Priore. Like others I know that Mckees family and at least two others couldnt wait to get their kids out of SBU halfway through the season.
Colleagues at work constantly brag about their respective schools dominating a football or basketball game (Florida, Alabama, Georgia, and Penn State are the most common schools for my colleagues), and while I join in the conversations because sports is my favorite thing in the world, I've never had the chance to boast about a big win by my alma mater. I'm embarrassed that most people In the sports world have never heard of SBU, and the ones who have, have to constantly ask what league they're in or if it's made up because no one
**** knows the America East, and they barely know the CAA. As an alum, I'm ashamed that some of my tuition went towards something with zero benefits for the school. Women's lacrosse, and the occasional random team every couple of years, are the highlights of the athletic department. And bless Joe Spalina and WLAX, because, without them, there would literally be nothing going right.
It's the hope that kills. Guess we should all give up hoping something good may eventually happen, and forget about Stony Brook. I'm so close to leaving this site and never checking a score again because its legitimately upseting.
