eh, kind of think a lot of his complaints are overblown. They're complaints that are completely dwarfed by wins and losses.
OK, the gear isn't that nice,
i haven't seen an interview with the new players,
nobody cares if the team is 8-0 and ranked right now, just win
the problems with the program begin and end with 3 horrible losses..
would trade a million ugly quarter zips and promotional nights for a ranked team.

Most are really spot on but I'm tired of hearing the ignorant Corey Lowery high school principal garbage. He was not a high school principal when hired by Sha/Seton Hall. He was coming off a 2-year stint as head coach at Lincoln University (certainly a much lower level) with a record of 21-10. Prior to that he was a JUCO coach with a record of 245-63, 152-19 in-conference.
I'm not saying he should be on the staff of a high major program but he is a good basketball guy. Just tired of all the agenda-driven misinformation. You don't do yourself any favors by lying about him and disrespecting Shaheen.
A big miss, IMO, which they also just re-upped on long term, is outsourcing the revenue generating departments.
And they're not alone! Many colleges do the same thing because they want to focus on athletic administration and not be bothered with the business side of the athletic department.
This is no criticism of Learfield employees working at SHU - they're great. But they can be just as great as SHU employees without the vendor taking a cut of ticket and sponsorship sales.
It's not all bad, I'm sure there's a risk mitigation element to the contract, but it also caps potential upside and IMO this is an aspect of the business they should want full control of.
