Army’s win over Syracuse looks better and better as the season progresses. Syracuse handled #4 Duke last night pretty easily. They will move into the top 5 after that win I would think.

Just lots of 5th year "hardship" guys.

I was playing football for Maryland in 69 , Army was and always will be my favorite team , I went to see Maryland play Army and hung out with the Army team and cheered like hell for Army who won by 8/10 goals one of the Army players gave me his triple A sweatshirt and I still wear it today

Is this true?

Not a huge fan of the fact that we have football players that we are "strategically" allowing to spend five seasons playing prior to a December graduation. It would seem much more difficult with a spring sport where the cadets would wind up spending 5 full years at WP vs 4.5. Plus there are only 13 of 75 or so Seniors on the roster, so it doesn't seem overwhelming.

Did a quick check yesterday and, yes, like 6 or 7 5th year seniors. With covid in 2020 they are taking that extra year

Wierd to me they do an entire year, ie, not december grad. I wonder how they do things like leadership positions and also are they getting a double major or something?
