| Big loss imo. Prob saw the writing on the wall, and put his | |
| family first. Either Geno on his last legs or Heilbron not | |
| getting renewed. | |

| I would think that this was an easy one for Rickard. The ice | |
| seems thin at Stony Brook with Geno and with college sports in | |
| general, and instead he can stay in the community and help build | |
| what's going on at Stony Brook School � two new turf fields, a | |
| skyrocketing baseball program with a potential MLB first rounder | |
| next year, free private school tuition for his kids ... can he | |
| even live in one of those houses that the school owns? | |
| Salary-wise, I have to think it's no more than a lateral move, | |
| but you can't put a price on the stability, lower stress level | |
| and maybe those added perks too. | |

| geno is probably putting money in the bank and knows he won't | |
| get anymore time here after his contract is over. he is a smart | |
| man that way. Heilbron has 9 lives and it's a shame. | |

| As a local guy, it would be fun if Rickard turns the Stony Brook | |
| School into an elite prep bball program. SBS hiring Rickard | |
| makes me think they want to elevate the hoops program | |
