My wife works with a West Point grad who's around 33-35 years old.
He mentioned that Coach Monken arranged through the administration a few years ago to eliminate the summer military training for Army's football team, while NOT impacting the academic requirements.
This obviously has lifted Army's competitiveness over the past three years as I see it and it's good PR for West Point on so many levels as well.
I expect a close game today as this is Navy's "bowl" game to end a dismal season. Army 30, Navy 21.
