Heard the same...  The rumor mill is saying that the team has a meeting with the AD today to discuss the future of the program.

i thought they had a year left on the contract so i guess that is to be paid out.  sucks for guys like taylor who just joined (even kline who was a somewhat recent addition).  i remember reading here that gibson was going through some turmoil.

Confirmed.  What a great move by the AD.  Now, who should be considered for the position?

Only because he struck pay dirt with Crowley. His tenure at Navy isn't especially noteworthy.

And the argument could be made that Sowell's teams underachieved. 2011 was a huge disappointment and he took off for Navy five minutes after that embarrassing defeat to Hartford in the AE final.

Nagle had two problems. He had the Thompsons in Albany who dominated the America East like Joe Spallina's women do now. But they've been gone for a while and the Seawolves did not grow with Albany. Way back in 2007, Albany and UMBC both went to the NCAA Tournament, so multiple bids were not impossible. But Stony Brook never really progressed beyond their 2012 championship with mostly Sowell's guys. They've been stagnant and it's been pointed out over and over again.

I'm guessing Sowell will get a look but there are other candidates out there.

I believe their contracts were up this year.  This would have happened last year but they had that additional year.  I feel bad for the assistants, especially Gibson but Nagle had to go.   

This was the right move for the program and can't wait to see the team grow under new leadership.  Thank you Shawn Heilbron

the 2016 team was pretty good.  fun to watch, great size, depth.  some nice wins (rutgers for example, princeton, brown).  high profile recruits, etc.  i think there was a top ten ranking at one point.

but we couldnt get past ualbAny.  which ironically happened a few weeks ago.

let's hope we don't lose players and recruits.  the fans need to rally around the program now and help out.

The 2016 team had a ton of talent but again couldn't get past VT in the semi's of the AE tourney, and VT was a team they beat in the regular season.  I want to believe with better coaching they win that game. 

Can't really worry about losing players.  That is going to happen and plenty of good ones left after playing for Nagle.  The SB press release say it will be a national search so lets all hope for the best. 

It's a great day for the program.

Stony Brook just completed a 9-6 season and was the top seed in the America East tournament, but was upset by No. 4 seed Maryland-Baltimore County in the semifinals.

Nagle was 68-59 in his career at Stony Brook, including a 31-14 record in the America East. He led the Seawolves to an NCAA tournament berth during his first season in 2012 and six America East semifinal appearances in eight years.

Total speculation but I could see the  Lehigh head coach (Cassese) landing the job. He had a brief stint here as an assistant and is a Long Island native. Otherwise, it could be any number of seasoned assistant coaches looking for that first head coaching opportunity.
