I have talked to several folks from fans to parents of players, coaches, and administrators on the topic of the Transfer Portal.

I have read a few articles that range from”

• The pros and cons for young athletes when it comes to the college transfer portal
• Is the Transfer Portal Helping or Hurting College Athletic Programs?

I have drawn my conclusions, but this is less about what I think about the subject and more about what the Army fans here on GBK have to say about the transfer portal. And not only what it means or how you feel relative Army West Point athletics, but the sphere of college athletics as a whole.

Please Chime In …

Army Football is all set take on Navy this week in the 2024 Army-Navy Game presented by USAA, but before that, the Black Knights and Midshipmen battle in SimLand. Our staff here at @RivalsDotCom took to the new College Football 25 video game to simulate a CPU versus CPU game between the two programs and here are the results.

There are and will be tons of head coaching openings in the coming days/weeks. We seem to go through this every year, but this 2024 season is a unique one for us. So the proverbial questions are - Who will be coming after Jeff Monken, what open spots could be appealing to him and is he already on the short list of various schools?

Tomorrow (12/14) Is The Game … Army vs. Navy! So Let’s Get Ready or Should I Say, More Ready!

The Rivals.com Team has added all the GIFs to each of the Army and Navy separate forums for use, they appear under the Smilies button in the post editor, and will work in chat too when we run our you run Saturday GBK COVER-IT-LIVE GAME DAY THREAD & FAN CHATTER.



By the way, Rivals is still attempting to get the engagement widget ready for chat on each of the forums' chat so if you run one Saturday, we may have some trivia and polls/cheer meters appear there.

Regarding how long we should expect the Army/Navy special forum to stay active … we are planning on keeping it up through next week. So, starting today, more importantly during game time, please make your way over to the forum and make some Army Football Noise, so those navy midshipmen fans know what fan noise really is.

P.S. The wordle game will have content through next Friday.

After the Tulane game, I posted whose prediction was first, second, and third for each of the twelve games Army West Point has played, including the three who predicted against the BKs for the future national champions (ND) game.

Awarding five points for being the closest, three points for runner-up, and one point for third; AND giving another five points to anyone who nailed the score (regfadden did it for Temple), here are the current standings going in to the final two games of the 2024 season:

In first place, with 14 points, is NJFAN with one win and three runner-up predictions.

Currently in second place, with 13 points, is Armyconner08, the only poster with two wins, and one runner-up prediction.

In third place is regfadden with 12 points, having one exact prediction win and achieving two third-place predictions.

(11 points, and still making the CFP or College Football Predictions playoff, is Son of Slum and Gravy (can't you just hear that song in your mind, then you are Gray)

(9 points) me

(8 points) BetterThanNavy and BaddAssArmy

(7 points) Indadshonor and dayknight71

(5 points) Boomerang87, TheNewBlackKnights09, and OntheHudson87

(4 points) Chris2321

(3 points) ArmyFootball2006, McKnight, and Jiacono**

(2 points) DocJayy

(1 point) ArmyRusher22, rpais, ajfitz1993, and whatapain

* I did not include the unofficial predictions many of us made for the navy - Notre Dame game

** Joe might have more points, I only recorded his predictions - if he made one - from his great Behind the Lines articles since the NTU game

Interesting to go to the way back machine and remember when we lost a QB commit: Dillon Gabriel. It's funny how things work out--I thought I'd never see an Army QB that was as of a passer as Hopkins or as good a runner as Bradshaw.

We are fortunate to have both in one package.

Hopefully, it will be different on Saturday against Navy.

Today is the day that has been deemed “Early Signing Day” and GoBlackKnights.com will be front and center throughout the day, where we are projecting 100 early signees for the Army Black Knights, which is more than what we saw with the 2024 which was approximately 30.

This is a very exciting time for recruits, their families and friends, along with you the Army fans as tons of prospects sign early today.

MAKE SOME NOISE & WELCOME THE COMMITS AND FAMILY ABOARD!

We will need some help, but we still could make the playoff. Boise State would need to lose another game (preferably the MW champ game). Tulane needs to beat Memphis which would increase their ranking. We obviously have to beat UTSA and then beat Tulane in NOLA. Would an 11-1 Army team who beat a ranked Tulane team on the road be ranked higher than a 2 loss BSU or UNLV?

Strike One - Playing Marshall in the Independence Bowl

Strike Two - Losing Drinkall, although I wish him the best

Strike Three - Daily not being invited to NYC as a Heisman Finalist
