Click here - The Importance of Army’s B-Back position. These guys really showed up and showed off on Saturday in game that we HAD TO WIN!

Great job by the O-line, but great all around job with the down field blocking by the slotbacks and receivers and as Monken had preached all week - sustaining our blocks as well.

Coming into the season, the O-line was considered to be the cornerstone of the team, but that has not been the case thus far. But senior center and Rimington Award Watch List candidate Matt Hugenberg remains optimistic.

GBK caught up with several class of 2016 commits who watched the Army-E. Michigan game via the internet or television, who had this say about Army's decisive win on Saturday.

I am surprised that it’s not being streamlined online!

I am confident that we come away with our first win on the year and if not ….. $%&*@#

While we all eagerly await the ressurection of our triple option running success and a first victory this Saturday in Ypsilanti, Michigan I want to point out some good news that has already happened. Rivals and their analysts have been getting around to putting some ratings on our unrated commits and the results are quite good. Here is what I am noticing:

1) Kyle Harrell, Safety, Calera, Alabama is a 5.4 (2 star)
2) Joseph King V, Corner, Jacksonville, Florida is a 5.4 (2 star) He was most explosive athlete at the late June Army camp.
3) Joe Ryan, LB, Plant, Florida is a 5.3 (2 star)
4) Justin Thomas, Safety, Hollywood, FL is a 5.3 (2 star)

These new ratings propelled Army from 99th to 86th on the Rivals rankings without even adding a new commit. We passed Navy, AF, and UConn.

I believe there is more good news coming. Gavin Bassett is highly regarded by others and I expect he'll also get a 5.4 rating. Stephone Moore-Green will probably get a 5.3. And I suspect 2-3 other commits with no Rivals rating will acquire one as well.

I wanted more wins at this point in the season but a winning program requires a full time recruiting program and we sure appear to have one going. At this rate we'll have commits just as strong or stronger at the top end of our range as we did last year. It is especially good to see that the Rivals anlaysts recognize what our coaches noticed in the two camps. And I must say that we are doing especially well in Florida. So keep up the good work Army and close those highly touted prospects that are still considering us this year!

I'm excited about the direction of Army football. Really excited. Before I get into why.... let me tell you that I live and die with every Army game. There is no fan out there who wants this team to succeed, right now, more than I do. I was nearly in tears yesterday when they kicked that field goal. That said, I am encouraged about our future. Why? I never remember seeing this much young talent on the field. And I mean NEVER. Yes, there were individual examples in past years but not the wholesale approach for freshmen and sophomores on the field that we're seeing now. What a game by Jackson, our frosh DB, yesterday! Bradshaw is going to be an impact player for us for two more seasons. Brinson... the guy is going to be a beast. Harris, Draper, Asberry, etc. The list goes on...

I believe we will still win some games this year. Next year will be much better. The offensive line "beef" that arrived as freshman this year (either USMAPS or direct) will be ready to help. And the year after that will be better still. In the meantime, we're going to keep building from the bottom up. I love the way this staff is recruiting and that will pay dividends.

That was a hard fought game yesterday. We came out on the short end, but it was an even contest. And we were doing it with lots of youth. To the current juniors and seniors, please keep playing your butts off. You guys give it all and your impact will be felt long after you leave. To the freshmen and sophomores, you guys are going to get this done... I can feel it. And to any recruits out there reading this...sign up to become part of something special, because it's going to be a ride! I can't wait to see the future unfold. Beat Navy!

Representing Army Pride!!

This Rivals 3-star QB was offered back in April and Army quickly jumped into to race to land him after making him a priority this spring and the feeling is mutual.

After quarterback the most critical player on offense is the fullback. Replacing Dixon is not going to be easy. The UPPERCLASSMEN are Giachinta 6/1 223 a senior and Kemper 5/6 212 a junior. Giachinta has the most experience but Kempers low center of gravity with dense body weight means he may have powerful leg drive. There are also two plebes who look very interesting both for depth and possibly making some noise. Darrel Wollfolk at 5/10 215 is coming from the prep school and may be ready to compete.. Drue Harris is a direct a 6 / 223. ITS INTERESTING that he is a 2 star with a 5.4 rivals rating. One more point and he would have been a 3 star
I would be interested if anyone has seen the early scrimmages to see who is getting the plays and who might be showing well. ALSO I would love to hear other thoughts and opinions on this vital position

QB, Ahmad Bradshaw post-game interview with GBK’s Maddy Daugherty

A 47-yard field goal with four seconds remaining on the game clock gave the Demon Deacons of Wake Forest their 4th straight win over the Army Black Knights.

Curtis Seaton from Mesquite (Texas) West is looking for his first offer and Army is one of a number of D-1 schools that he says has been contacting him recently. I have seen some of his SR clips and he is a punishing run blocker.
