It is true he gets much more out of what appears to be less. Give this guy the recruiting classes of MD, UNC or FL, it would not even be a contest for the championship.


Not missing any point. You are spreading fake news. Go take a look at the Bio's of the players who saw action in the BC game. Many HS All-Americans, All-Long Island, All County etc... Very few of these players were overlooked. They chose to go to Stony Brook for their own personal reasons. Stony Brook can be financially attractive, it is a good school, close to home etc... Every player / family has their own reason for selecting a school. Great to go to Duke, BC or ND but if you are only offered 30% that tuition bill can hurt.
