2025 Gridiron showcase

ajfitz1993
Hey GBK I have to ask. I was just looking at the roster for this gridiron classic and it has four army players on players to watch. Is there any update if they went to this or got invited and turned it down? I didn’t know anything about it till I saw it this morning do you have any info on it?

The Greatest Army Football Players of All Time?

Boomerang87
There has been tons of chatter on this message board regarding Bryson Daily and where he ranks among those names that are considered some of the greatest football players to play for Army West Point.

First, I won’t even attempt to define greatest, because it is a relative to term and can mean different things for different people. For example, some fans consider MVP and Greatness to mean the same thing, while others feel there’s a distinction between the two.

Another thought when it comes to greatness is the timeframe. What do I mean by that? Well, not too many former Army players have made it to the NFL, and those that have can easily be considered outstanding football players.

However, allow me to use Alejandro Villanueva as an example of what I will deem as “delayed” greatness. The 6-foot-9 and 290 pounder, played defensive line, offensive tackle and wide receiver/tight end for us before becoming an Army Ranger and serving three tours of duty in Afghanistan, where he earned the Bronze Star for his service. He was damn good wearing the Black & Gold, but I would not consider his tenure at West Point as a ballplayer, great.

After failing to make several NFL teams as a tight end and defensive end, the Pittsburgh Steelers converted him to an offensive tackle, and Villanueva played eight seasons, making two Pro Bowl appearances. Greatness at the NFL level for sure.

Actually, GBK did the following article back on 12/14/11. THE TOP 10 ARMY PLAYERS OF THE LAST DECADE

Finally, this is a different era of football compared to the days that some of the former players who were designated as great played. Hence, the game and the players themselves have evolved.

All of that being said, Here are my Top Five Army Football Players that I have seen play.
  1. Josh McNary
  2. Steve Anderson
  3. Caleb Campbell
  4. Bryson Daily
  5. Ali Villanueva

Who would you consider to be your Top Five Army Football Players of All-Time?

OT: Wildfires in California

Charles Grevious
I don’t think anyone around the country has truly realized the devastation that’s happening in LA.

There are now more than five fires burning simultaneously and they are ZERO % contained.

The beautiful Pacific Palisades where so many friends live has been burned to the ground.

Critical fire weather will last through Friday for portions of LA and Ventura counties, including major wildfire locations such as the #PalisadesFire, the #EatonFire, and the #HurstFire. Gusty winds and very dry conditions will continue to fuel fire starts and existing fires.

A new fire - #SunsetFire, has just happened and prompted mandatory evacuation orders for residents in the Hollywood Hills.

Mandatory evacuations have been ordered for parts of Santa Monica, Laurel Canyon Blvd (on the west) to Mulholland Drive (on the north) to 101 Freeway (on the east) down to Hollywood Blvd (on the south).

Millions of people were left without power on Wednesday as several wildfires raged across the metropolitan Los Angeles area.

The fires have destroyed or “substantially damaged” dozens of schools.

This is an unimaginable loss. Lives forever changed. And the fires still rage along with 100mph gusts.

Pray for LA

Call anyone you know in LA

Help anyone you know in LA

In these worst of times, let’s show the best of humanity.
