I wonder if Army's football woes aren't linked to the fact that they, more than any other service (at least to my knowledge) have been involved in ground combat for roughly the last 12 years.
How long have they lost to Navy and been woeful as a D1 team? Oh, right, 12 years.:roll eyes:
In all seriousness, more than a few football recruits attend a "big 3" SA b/c it is the only school that would let them play D1 FB. If you're one of those and you have to choose among the three, you and your parents might be more excited about USNA and USAFA -- and the USN and USAF vs. the USA, in today's combat environment at least.
