Prior to the season, the Colonial Athletic Association rebranded to the Coastal Athletic Association to reflect both the expansion and modernization of the league.[1]
Coming off a program-worst 2–9 season, Stony Brook completed a winless season for the first time in 2023 to set a new program low, having lost 19 of its last 21 games.
Defensive coordinator Bryan Collins died before the season started on July 8, 2023 from a sudden cardiac event.[2][3] Matt Hachmann was promoted to defensive coordinator in the wake of Collins' death.[4]
Stony Brook's game against Morgan State on October 7 was canceled three days prior to the contest because of a mass shooting that occurred on the Morgan State campus. There was an active manhunt on campus for an at-large shooter, who was not arrested until October 12.[5][6]
After an 0–10 season, the first winless season in Stony Brook history, Priore was fired two days after the team's last game, on November 13. He finished with a record of 97–101 over 18 years as Stony Brook's head coach.[7][8]
