I'd happy lose this one if it meant coach P finally got canned, but the likelihood of that is low. If nothing else hopefully we can get some satisfaction out of maybe keeping Albany out of the playoffs. I'll also be able to cancel the abomination that is my FloSports subscription after Saturday's game, so there's another benefit.

The difference between 5-7 and 6-6 really shouldn’t determine Chuck’s fate. Either way, this season was a colossal failure coming off 2017 and 2018.

I wonder what happens if Albany wins big and it’s apparent that the effort wasn’t there.  It’s not fun to play football when there’s nothing to play for.

I dont see UA winning big. I do see UA winning. Fields have been playing like real crap as of late. A total different QB from the first half of the season. Is he hurt? Are all his receivers hurt, dont know. But what we do know is SB looks lost as a team with no clear leadership on and off the stripes!!!!!

If Shawn Heilbron has any aspirations for joining the FBS, and he said he does then a 5-7 team should be something coach P needs to fear. In the FCS is really doesn't matter. Most schools cant afford to just pay out some ridiculous HC contract early because his team record is subpar. But if SH really has an eye on the big leagues or some G5 conference then he should be looking for a new coaching staff to help argue that case!!

If anyone on this forum believes that Coach P will not have his team ready to play this Saturday you are very naive because if he sensed that during this weeks practice that anyone was going to not give 100% they will not be on the field this Saturday.

What I could see however is to see many players who Coach P has in his 2020 plans get a shot

This is a rivalry game and we have the opportunity to potentially keep Albany out of the playoffs with a win. Plus it's senior day. Our guys will be fired up and motivated to play well. I do not expect an Albany blowout victory at all.

why not put Jack C in? Coach P said it was a fairly close contest between the two of them. He's only played in half the games

I was up at SBU tonight to watch a HS Playoff Game and ran into some of the SBU Players and Saturday is being played as their playoff game with the Golden Apple on the line they want nothing more than to beat Albany

Good to hear.  It is a rivalry, so that makes sense.  And you’re right - it would good to see 2020 players get some plays.

I’ll chime in with my naive opinion. First, I’ve only watched pieces of games this year. Second, it is rare to find quality QB’s down at the FCS level (guys like Wentz and Flacco are exceptions to the rule). Imo, we finally landed a QB who is a threat with his legs and his arm; this kid can play. I have no contempt for Coach P, but he’s been way to conservative over the years with his play calling, and his time mgmt has been subpar, imo. Don’t feel he’s the right match coaching-wise for the kid behind center. Agree with others; time for a change at the top. All despite a decent overall record, and a couple of playoff wins. Time to get to that next level.

P.S. Time to be spoilers on Saturday
How old a Seawolf am I? I followed them during their Final 4 DIII hoops run in 1977-78 (they were called the Patriots then)

Fields may have been playing like crap most recently but what is a QB to do when he literally has no consistent help in the run game I don’t know who came up with the idea let’s take White and make him a running back but he is by far no running back and they celebrate when he run over 100 yards on very mediocre teams that is what I find appalling we needed a strong run game this season and we did not have it I hope next year bring a better season and better coaching decisions Sbu has talent use it!

Punt

Goddamnit.
