Appreciate it! Gotten a lot of love from the Carolina's on that one, and Brian is obviously a top flight smart guy who has covered the league for a couple decades so its a treat for us to chat with him.

Jerry Beach, who covers Hofstra and NY sports will be on this Sunday so prob not as much NC content, but should still have some good CAA nuggets. And we always welcome guests and topic ideas... the show is about having community at Drexel, but I really look to involve the broader CAA as well... all opinions are welcome, as long as you're not from Delaware :)

Should be interesting pod.. will be fun to hear Hofstra’s view on SBU. I’m looking forward to play them twice in conference schedule. My hunch is their fan base is 50/50 on us joining. They could use a local rival and us too, but probably hate to see us catch up to them.

The Stony Brook addition would be an interesting topic of discussion.

Why’s did Hofstra evolve from their previous anti Stony Brook position and was that the ultimate factor that delayed these much needed N/S divisions?

Besides academic, geographic and athletic fit, there may be a few reasons from Hofstra side. Just speculation but who knows:

First… the long time Hofstra president Rabinowitz has retired recently who was very opposed to us. He didn’t want Stony Brook’s competition in the Long Island market for media and recruits. New president probably views us differently.

Second, We don’t have the loud mouth AD Fiore in charge any more. Though he was instrumental in moving our Athletic dept forward during his tenure, he had ruffled a few feathers around. Was fired for misconduct.

Lastly, Hofstra’ current AD Cole was former associate athletic director at Stony Brook.
Sounds like changes in key leadership spots allowed the deal to be sealed

If that attitude was present last time we would likely already be at 12 with UNCG

Sadly this delay has now made it virtually impossible to snag UNCG

This week should help answer some of these questions. Thanks for asking!

At least on the Spotify version, Beach was answering a question about Stony Brook and then the feed got cut off before the podcast ended. Enjoyed the pod BTW

Hey, this got fixed up on Spotify around 2pm yesterday, so you should be good to get the last 10 min if you missed it earlier. Most of the other pod services updated late yesterday it seems.
