SBU Men's Basketball / Re: Games 5/6: at FIU/vs Eastern Washington

It is really sad and frustrating to watch these games, besides from the blaring obvious, getting rid of both the AD and the HC and use their 400K+ salaries to recruit talented individuals who are sincerely interested in the institution, cultivating a winning team and culture and not have 2 ego maniacs who are only interested in themselves and their pockets.... Hell maybe the SBM Director of Player Development, David Ford (Geno's son) could do better than his father.......or maybe not because he doesn't seem to be developing much at all thus far....

Congrats to Dan Rickard on his well deserved promotion but what really sickens me is Geno hiring his freshman son to a position as Director of player personnel. unbelievable and disgusting!!! ???

Well, looks like the only history SBMBB will be making is negative history..........

While I would normally tend to agree with AirTurn's comments about JW's lack of coaching experience, this is not the NBA and ANYTHING other than GF and BW would be a major improvement.  You have to agree Jameel has the talent, reputation and star power to attract not only donors but potential players.  His bball career in Korea may be very appealing to the SB Asian community. IMO, if this happens and DR sticks around we could potentially have a powerhouse coaching team in the making which in turn will make players want to play here and put people in the seats.....and in turn donor's will want to infuse some $ into the program, just sayin........

Had to be a reason why JB took just about everyone else with him and left GF behind?????????

I am the new guy here.  I too was a season ticket holder for a very long time until GF took the reins of this team, that's when I decided that it was time to go. I simply couldn't get behind this guy, his coaching style, the way he treats people and he could never be an ambassador to SB.  I was shocked and disappointed that he was offered the HC post. Rumor has it that was he made all of the players speak to SH so that he would get the job.  IDO but the steady mass exodus of players may prove this may be very true.  Shame on SH for letting that happen and signing a long term contract. I really think donors would line up and contribute to his buyout at this point. There are huge problems in SB Athletics and yes it does have to do in part with leadership and financial support. State $ will not be coming our way so it needs to be donor secured. I agree that RE is a very unusual/unapproachable guy who never went out of his way to socialize with any of the season ticket holders let alone investigate and secure new donor prospects.  IMO he should be the first to go.  I have very little faith in SH because he should be proactive in holding RE accountable and doing what's best for Athletics.  With regard to SB being a commuter school, there may be some truth to this and maybe just maybe a good idea would be to look into a more local recruit rather than all JUCO players we seem to be after.  I remember there was a local PJ kid who was a walk on (can't remember his name). Boals put him in and he nailed a 3 pointer and the freakin crowd went wild, the place was electric.  It was so relatable and people seem to want that connection/relationship. The community has no connection to this team.  Community service was absent (no counting when COVID hit).  Those players were never out and about mingling with the community.  I am sorry but you have to be able to connect with the community if you expect them to come to games and support the program. Right now there is nothing and I do not see anything coming anytime soon with the current leadership and HC.  We really need to clean the house, that is just my opinion...........
