How much of that is on Chuck vs. just offering these kids the ability to stay on the Island and play D1 football for Long Island's team? Sure, he gets recruits, but A) could we be getting better recruits without him and B) is "he" even the reason that this school appeals to recruits

I agree with you. Some kids dont want to go away for college and stay close to home. Those are the athletes SB would be getting regardless of who their HC is.

If SB was able to hire an HC from outside long island and strong ties to down south or midwest maybe that coach can entice the better players to come here.

College football is very different than Lax. In Lacrosse long island produces some of the best athletes in the world. You would want a coach from our area to stay here and recruit local products. Long Island is not a hotbed for football so a school needs to reach far to areas that are rich in football and try to convince them that SB is the school for them. Down south, west coast mid west are all good areas to recruit from. Find a football coach with strong ties to these areas and the talent will come.
