WEST POINT

THE PREMIER LEADER DEVELOPMENT INSTITUTION IN THE NATION The United States Military Academy is renowned because of its historic and distinguished reputation as a military academy, and as a leading, progressive institution of higher education. Made legendary in books and movies produced over the years, the Academy’s “Long Gray Line” of graduates includes some of our nation’s most famous and influential men: Ulysses S. Grant, Robert E. Lee, Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson, George S. Patton, Omar Bradley, Douglas MacArthur, Dwight Eisenhower and Norman Schwarzkopf. Because of this superb education and leadership experience, West Point graduates historically have been sought for high level civilian and military leadership positions. Their numbers include two U.S. presidents, several ambassadors, state governors, legislators, judges, cabinet members, educators, astronauts and corporate executives. Today, West Point continues to provide hundreds of young men and women the unique opportunity to develop physically, ethically and intellectually while building a foundation for an exciting, challenging and rewarding career as an Army officer in the service of our nation. Cadets have much more responsibility in running the Academy than students in most other colleges or universities. It adds to the leadership experience. Cadets succeed at West Point because of the support they receive from the staff and faculty. After all, many faculty members are West Point graduates and understand the challenge cadets face on a daily basis. They also serve as ideal role models, showing cadets what Army life is like. The U.S. Military Academy’s primary strength is its ability to develop leaders of character who are committed to “Duty, Honor, Country” and selfless service to our nation.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL DISTINGUISHED GRADUATES

BORMAN

GRANT

ROBERT E. LEE ’29

The Academy’s ninth Superintendent (1852-55), Lee was a model cadet during his four years at West Point. He graduated second in his class and never earned a single demerit during his four years at the Academy. At the beginning of the Civil War, he was selected to serve as Commanding General of the Army, but instead resigned his commission and was named General-In-Chief of the Confederate Army from 1861 to 1865. Lee’s surrender to Ulysses S. Grant (USMA 1843), at Appomattox Court House, Va., ended the Civil War. Fort Lee, Va., was named in his honor.

ULYSSES S. GRANT ’43

Grant distinguished himself during the Civil War at the Battle of Vicksburg in 1863; his victory secured control of the Mississippi River for the Union. President Abe Lincoln later appointed him Commanding General of the Army in March 1864. On April 9, 1865, at Appomattox Court House, Va., Robert E. Lee (USMA 1829) surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia to him, ending the Civil War. Grant later served as the 18th President of the United States from 1869 to 1877.

The latest jewel in Army’s treasure trove of athletic facilities, Foley Athletic Center opened its doors two years ago, serving as the “winter home” of the Black Knights. The massive 77,000-squarefoot structure provides Army’s football team with a state-of-the-art indoor practice facility, a place where the team can train in a climatecontrolled environment during the winter months and inclement weather days throughout the year. The facility contains a full 100-yard football playing field, along with full 10-yard end zones on both ends. Additionally, a five-yard buffer encircles the field. In all, the FieldTurf playing surface covers 130 yards in length. In addition, a 50-yard-by10-yard speed and agility room is housed in the sprawling training center. The project was made possible through the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. William Foley, who pledged a gift of $15 million towards the continuation of the “Margin of Excellence” facility upgrade project. The largest single donation in service academy history, the gift by the Foley family funded the design and construction of the facility that bears its name. The Foley Athletic Center represents Phase II of the “Margin of Excellence” facility upgrade which began in 2001.

“I WANT AN OFFICER FOR A SECRET AND DANGEROUS MISSION … I WANT A WEST POINT FOOTBALL PLAYER.” The wording on a bronze plaque, placed near the southeast corner of Michie Stadium, has been recognized over the years as a splendid compliment, not only to West Point, but also to the long line of West Point football players ... a unique breed, indeed. There will be more missions ahead for the soldiers of the U.S. Army, and they will accept and fulfill them to the best of their ability. But seldom will any guidance be as specific as it was during World War II, when Gen. George C. Marshall said:

“I WANT A WEST POINT FOOTBALL PLAYER.” It was only an ordinary statement made during the busy, everyday activities at the Pentagon; but it was a remark that came at a very crucial period of World War II, and one that was destined to join other well-remembered phrases which at a particular time supplied the needed inspiration to accomplish a task. Gen. George C. Marshall, then-Chief of Staff for the U.S. Army, needed an officer to train and lead a ranger-type battalion on a secret mission. He requested the Secretary of the General Staff to obtain this officer. Little did the famous Virginia Military Institute graduate realize, but he was furnishing the words that later were to become of utmost importance to the U.S. Military Academy. His orders were simple and concise.

“It doesn’t take long to figure out that West Point is a special place. Statues attest to the extraordinary people who lived, studied and trained there. Historic landmarks recall powerful events that are rooted in its red-brown New York soil. Cannons are everywhere, as are memorials and special tributes to heroic men who fought in not-forgotten wars. It’s an elegant setting for a football program that also is steeped in tradition. Fans still flock to venerable Michie Stadium to experience an atmosphere and pageantry that only West Point can supply. West Point is all about chills, goosebumps and sentimentality.

ARMY FOOTBALL 2009

ARMY IS ONE OF JUST THREE SCHOOLS IN THE COUNTRY GUARANTEED TO HAVE ALL OF ITS HOME GAMES TELEVISED NATIONALLY. CBS College Sports Network and the Army Athletic Association announced an exclusive five-year agreement in July, guaranteeing live television coverage of every Army home football game and select neutral-site games in which Army is the home team, on CBS College Sports Network, beginning with the 2010 season and continuing through 2014. While the new deal between Army and CBS College Sports Network begins in 2010, the Army Athletic Association, CBS College Sports Network and Army’s former broadcast partner, ESPN, worked out an agreement for this fall that will permit CBS College Sports Network to broadcast all of the Black Knights’ home games with the exception of Army’s home date with Rutgers. Three of Army’s games will be televised live on CBS College Sports Network and two will air on a tape-delayed basis. All five of the contests will begin at noon. As part of the pact, Army’s home game with Rutgers will remain on Friday, Oct. 23 and be televised by ESPN2. In the last 13 years, 55 Army games have been televised nationally, 15 via network television. The Black Knights have played before a national television audience 33 times the past four seasons alone. Those numbers will continue to grow this fall with eight national television appearances scheduled as of early summer. Army has had 11 of its 12 contests televised each of the past two years. Additionally, CBS Sports will televise the Army-Navy Classic to a worldwide audience for the 14th consecutive season.

CENTER OF ATTENTION

In conjunction with Army Sports Properties, the Army Athletic Association remains partnered with WABC (770-AM), New York, N.Y., to serve as the flagship station of the Army Sports Network. WABC, whose 50,000watt clear channel signal can be heard in 38 states and Canada, is widely regarded as the pre-eminent and widest-reaching AM radio station in the country. WABC is recognized as the nation’s most-listened-to talk-radio station. In addition to its agreement with WABC, Army adds Hudson Valley affiliates WALL (1340AM), Middletown, N.Y., and WEOK (1390-AM), Poughkeepsie, N.Y., as vital components of the Army Sports Network this season thanks to a five-year partnership between Cumulus Media and the Army Athletic Association announced in July. The Army Sports Network will grow by two stations for the annual Army-Navy game and any Black Knights postseason bowl appearance as WZAD (97.3-AM), Wurtsboro, N.Y., and WKXP (94.3-AM), Kingston, N.Y., join the ASN affiliate list. Complementing its local affiliate lineup, the Army Sports Network returns to Sirius Satellite Radio for a fifth season. It’s hard to imagine a program generating more national attention than does Army’s. Complementing its vast radio and television presence, feature stories regarding the Black Knights have appeared “coastto-coast” in news outlets such as Sports Illustrated, USA Today, The Sporting News, ESPN, ESPN.com, ESPN360, SportsLine.com, The New York Times, San Diego Union-Tribune, New York Post, New York Daily News, Journal News, Tampa Tribune, Baltimore Sun, Philadelphia Inquirer, Philadelphia Daily News, Dallas Morning News, San Antonio Express-Times, Denver Post, New Orleans Times-Picayune and Virginian-Pilot in the last five years. While ESPN’s popular College GameDay show originated live from West Point on Sept. 27, 2003, “The Seeds of Victory,” a Bombo Sports and Entertainment-produced documentary that closely followed Army’s 2004 seniors throughout that season, debuted on ESPN four years ago.

THE UNITED STATES

MILITARY ACADEMY

The mission of the U.S. Military Academy is to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character committed to the values of Duty, Honor, Country; professional growth throughout a career as an officer in the U.S. Army; and a lifetime of selfless service to the Nation. Founded on March 16, 1802, the Academy celebrated its Bicentennial in 2002. But West Point’s role in America’s history dates to the Revolutionary War, when both sides realized the strategic importance of the commanding plateau on the west bank of the Hudson River. Gen. George Washington considered West Point to be the most strategic position in America. He personally selected Thaddeus Kosciuszko, one of the heroes of Saratoga, to design the fortifications in 1778 after problems arose with French engineers originally placed in charge of the design. In 1779, General Washington transferred his headquarters to West Point. Continental soldiers built forts, batteries and defensive barriers. A 100-ton iron chain was extended across the Hudson to control river traffic. Today, several links from that chain are arranged at Trophy Point as a reminder of West Point’s original fortifications. In 1802 President Thomas Jefferson signed the legislation establishing the U.S. Military Academy to create an institution devoted to the arts and sciences of warfare. This effectively eliminated America’s wartime reliance on foreign engineers and artillerists. West Point became the nation’s first engineering school and served as the model for engineering programs which were eventually established at other colleges. Col. Sylvanus Thayer, the “Father of the Military Academy,” served as Superintendent from 1817 through 1833. He upgraded academic standards, instilled military discipline and emphasized honorable conduct. Early graduates were largely responsible for the construction of the nation’s initial railway lines, bridges, harbors, and roads. Although the curriculum maintains its focus on engineering, in recent decades the program of instruction has markedly changed, providing cadets a selection of more than 40 majors. This tradition of academic and military excellence, guided by a demanding standard of moral and ethical conduct, remains the cornerstone of the West Point experience. It is said at West Point that “much of the history we teach was made by those people we taught.” The Academy has produced famous leaders throughout its illustrious past…Civil War Generals Grant, Sherman, Lee, and Jackson, to name but a few. In World War I, 34 of the 38 corps and division commanders were graduates. World War II would see many graduates reach brigadier general or higher, to include Eisenhower, MacArthur, Bradley and Patton. In more recent conflicts, MacArthur, Ridgway, Westmoreland, Abrams, Schwarzkopf and Abizaid were in command. Academy graduates have also excelled in air and space exploration, and countless others went on from military service to become leaders in medicine, law, business, religion and science. Since its founding, the Military Academy fulfills the same mission as it always has . . . to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets. It accomplishes this mission by developing cadets in three essential areas: intellectual, physical and military. These developmental paths are balanced and fully integrated into the daily life of each young man and woman at the Academy. Intellectual growth is fostered through an academic curriculum that provides a broad liberal education in the arts and sciences. The electives program builds upon the foundation of the core, allowing cadets to develop even greater competence in selected areas. In addition, the fields-of-study and majors nurture the development of creativity, critical thinking, and self-directed learning, essential characteristics of 21st century officers. The four-year academic experience leads to a bachelor of science degree and a commission as a second lieutenant in the Army.

ARMY FOOTBALL 2009

Physical development is achieved through a rigorous athletic and physical education program. Each cadet participates at the intercollegiate, club or intramural level each semester. This readies the cadet for the physical demands of military life and helps teach good judgment and self-discipline, even while under mental and physical stress. Military development begins with the cadet’s first day at West Point. Most military training takes place during the summer, with new cadets undergoing Cadet Basic Training, or Beast Barracks, their first year, followed the second summer by Cadet Field Training. Cadets spend their third and fourth summers serving in active Army units around the world; attending specialty training such as airborne, air assault or northern warfare or helping to train the first- and second-year cadets. The Cadet Leader Development System seeks to give the cadets increasing responsibility until they are ready to receive their commissions and assume their duties as leaders in today’s Army. Moral and ethical values guide cadets throughout their four years at West Point. Commitment to the Academy’s “Bedrock Values,” based on integrity and respect for the dignity of others, begins on the first day. Integrity is reflected in the Cadet Honor Code which states: “A cadet will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.” Respect denotes that cadets treat others with the same respect and dignity they themselves would expect. At West Point, it is not enough to train leaders—they must be leaders of character. Admission is keenly competitive and is open to young men and women from all states and territories and from every socioeconomic level. Prospective cadets must receive a nomination by a member of Congress or from the Department of the Army. The Academy seeks candidates who possess records of success in academics, athletics and leadership indicative of well-rounded individuals. Although the life of a cadet is demanding, there remains an array of club activities ranging from golf, skiing, boxing, crew and orienteering to such organizations as the cadet radio station, Habitat for Humanity and Big Brothers-Big Sisters. Additionally, the U.S. Corps of Cadets hosts a Special Olympics event each spring. Today’s Military Academy is a vastly different institution from the small academy legislated into being by Congress in 1802. Originally just 1,800 acres, the Academy has grown to more than 16,000 acres. The first graduating class numbered just two men; today’s classes graduate more than 900 new officers annually, both men and women, who are prepared for leadership roles within the Army. With the expansion of knowledge and the changing needs of the United States Army and the nation, life at West Point has changed to keep pace. Ever mindful of its rich heritage, the U.S. Military Academy is developing leaders for tomorrow, and its focus remains the national needs of the 21st century.

“I cannot begin to describe the love and pride I have for West Point and Army Football. Having the opportunity to be a member of the Long Gray Line and the unique brotherhood of Army Football has shaped my life in every way. I am humbled and honored to say I am part of a pedigree that has produced our nation’s greatest leaders and historic figures, and even more excited to assist in the development of its future leaders.” - TONY COAXUM

“The tradition and pride of West Point influence each individual who passes through the Academy’s hallowed gates. The spark of West Point has placed in me a flame that will burn the rest of my days. I am completely honored and privileged to live the dream of coaching and giving back to a place that gave me so much. The values of leadership that West Point provided me have changed my life. I am truly blessed to have experienced the gifts this great institution provides. If you want to discover the gifts within yourself, there is no place better than West Point.” - CLARENCE HOLMES

“In my 40 years of coaching experience, I have been very lucky. Now, here at West Point, luck has turned to privilege. I now find myself surrounded by Army pride, the warm West Point community spirit, unwavering personal commitment, total loyalty, academic excellence, and athletic prowess. What gifts these young men and this special place give me every day.” - GENE McKEEHAN “West Point is a magical and mystical place. These were my thoughts the first time I visited USMA during my recruiting visit in the spring of 1990. I am honored and privileged to be given the opportunity to coach, teach, and mentor the future leaders of the world. The four-year experience at West Point transforms your life and inspires young men and women to make positive social change. My mother summed up West Point best on Graduation Day in 1995, when she gave me a note that read, ‘Congratulations on this great accomplishment, but more importantly, thank you for enriching our family in ways never imagined...’” - JOE ROSS

“To say that it is an honor to coach football at West Point would be a gross understatement. There is no better coaching job in all of college football, and I wish every coach would get this opportunity just once. There is more to football then what happens between the chalk on Saturdays and at West Point that fact is even further magnified. These young men play their hearts out for each other, the Corps of Cadets, and for the men and women fighting for our freedom. It’s an awesome feeling waking up every day knowing that I have the privilege to interact with and coach men that represent everything that is right with our country. There is great history and tradition here at West Point and with Army Football, but it is the future that I am excited and proud to be a part of.” - JOHN BROCK “West Point represents an ideal in both character and leadership development. The young men and women who are chosen to attend this institution, and in turn, those that I am able to have an influence upon as a coach, receive my utmost respect and admiration. They will receive my best possible effort every day. This unique environment demands excellence in many different aspects of one’s life, and my wife Brenda and I are very excited and humbled to be a part of it.” - ANDY GUYADER “As a member of this elite community here at West Point, I get to witness the creation of the world’s future leaders first-hand. It has humbly inspired me to be the best mentor and coach that I can be. From the beginning, the athletic program at Army has always been a big part of the rich and storied tradition of West Point.” - ROBERT LYLES

COACHING STAFF THOUGHTS ON WEST POINT

“The opportunity to serve at the ‘premier’ academic-leadership institution in the country is truly an honor. As coaches, we are charged with continuing the proud football tradition through winning championships the right way! As a coach, there cannot be a more rewarding sense of pride than when the Corps of Cadets and the Army Band sing and play ‘On Brave Old Army Team’ after a big play. As graduates and members of the Long Gray Line, the ‘12th Man’ will be behind you for life!” - JOHN MUMFORD “It is truly an honor to coach at West Point. Every day I get to work with the best young men our country has to offer. Each day I am here I am inspired by the commitment there is to achieve victory in every arena all day, every day. This is a special place for special young men. It is tough, demanding and intense — a true challenge. For the young man that chooses to come to West Point there are some unbelievable opportunities in front of them; the opportunity to play Division 1 football with national exposure, the opportunity to receive the best overall education our country has to offer, the opportunity to secure future employment and financial stability, and the opportunity to serve and defend our nation as an officer. I am thrilled to be here and am excited for the future of Army Football.” - IAN SHIELDS “Being from Newburgh, I grew up watching Army Football so coaching here is not only a privilege but a real thrill. Working with these fine young men and being a small part of this great institution, where words like Duty, Honor, Country still have a deep meaning, is truly a great honor.” - BILL TRIPP

“It is a privilege for my family and I to have the opportunity to be at West Point. The tradition and honor associated with West Point, Army Football and the Long, Gray Line will resonate in our lives for years to come.” - PAYAM SAADAT “The opportunity and privilege to be a part of the legendary tradition associated with Army Football is exciting and an honor. The history and accomplishments of the cadets that have graduated from West Point attest to the quality of leadership development. The cadets that have participated in Army Football have made an important contribution to the spirit and pride of the entire Corps of Cadets. To coach and be a part of the cadet’s development as a leader and contribute to his West Point Experience is extremely rewarding.” - CHRIS SMELAND “The Corps of Cadets is representative of the finest young people in our nation. Victory and success are the expectations in everything they do. That is the very reason the United States Military Academy is a tremendously special place to play college football. There is no doubt in my mind that Army Football will reach levels surpassing its wonderful history. If a young man truly wishes to achieve excellence in all facets of his life, there is no better place imaginable than West Point.” - TUCKER WAUGH

RICH ELLERSON “I will never receive, nor have I ever received a finer compliment professionally or personally than to be entrusted with the Army football program at this point in its history. I grew up with Army football. I was part of a typical Army family. When I was a kid, I was watching those guys at West Point, my father was a West Point graduate and we were living on Army posts all over the world. I just grew up thinking that West Point was the center of the universe. It’s a little bit of a catharsis.” - Head Coach Rich Ellerson

ARMY FOOTBALL 2009

Army and Notre Dame – two staples of the national sports scene when they met 21 times between 1925 and 1946 at the original Yankee Stadium, the home of the New York Yankees – will renew that historic collegiate rivalry for the 50th time on Nov. 20, 2010, when the Black Knights and Fighting Irish battle in the first football game to be played at the new Yankee Stadium. NBC Sports is expected to televise the Army-Notre Dame game on a national basis in prime time. In addition to facing Notre Dame, the Black Knights announced the “Army at Yankee Stadium Series.” The three-game slate will include games against Rutgers on Nov. 12, 2011, Air Force on Nov. 3, 2012, and Boston College on Nov. 8, 2014. Army will serve as the home team for all three of those contests with CBS College Sports Network televising the games to a national audience. Army teams played at the original Yankee Stadium on 38 occasions from 1925 to 1969. Notre Dame ranked as the Black Knights’ most common opponent during that span with Army battling the Fighting Irish 22 times over that time. The teams met for the final time at Yankee Stadium in 1969 (helping to commemorate the 100th anniversary of college football). Notre Dame holds a 14-5-3 series advantage against Army in games played at the original Yankee Stadium. Overall, the Black Knights posted a 1419-5 mark at Yankee Stadium. Army and Air Force began their series matchup with a Yankee Stadium encounter in 1959, while the Black Knights have never faced Rutgers or Boston College in the Bronx.

ARMY AT YANKEE STADIUM

CBS COLLEGE SPORTS NETWORK CBS College Sports Network and the Army Athletic Association have reached an exclusive five-year agreement, guaranteeing live television coverage in high definition of every Army home football game and select neutral-site games in which Army is the home team, on CBS College Sports Network, beginning with the 2010 season and continuing through 2014. A major component of the agreement assures that all Army home football games will be played on Saturday afternoons beginning at either noon or 3:30 p.m., ET with all kickoff times to be set by May 1 each year. Additionally, a live web stream of all Army’s home broadcasts will be made available free of charge to soldiers and military personnel around the world via CBS College Sports Network XXL, the network’s multi-media streaming platform. While the new deal between Army and CBS College Sports Network begins in 2010, the Army Athletic Association, CBS College Sports Network and Army’s current broadcast partner, ESPN, have worked out an agreement for this fall that will permit CBS College Sports Network to broadcast all of the Black Knights’ home games with the exception of Army’s home date with Rutgers. With the announcement, no fewer than eight Army games are slated for national television coverage in 2009. In addition to Army’s home game broadcast schedule, the Black Knights’ service academy clash at Air Force on Nov. 7 will be televised by CBS College Sports Network and Army’s year-ending battle with arch-rival Navy in Philadelphia will be broadcast to a worldwide audience by CBS Sports.

A LONG, PROUD TRADITION

ARMY SPORTS HALL OF FAME The Army Athletic Association debuted the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2004, inducting the charter class into its own shrine of top athletic achievements. The purpose of the Army Sports Hall of Fame, located within the Kenna Hall of Army Sports, is to honor the athletes, coaches, teams, administrators and others who have brought distinction to Army athletics over its many years of existence. Eligible candidates include former athletes, athletic teams, coaches, administrators, support staff or any other individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the long history of athletics at the United States Military Academy. Most importantly, these individuals, in addition to specific criteria, must have been of high moral character and must have upheld the values of “Duty, Honor, Country.” The Army Athletic Association inducted its charter class into the Army Sports Hall of Fame at a “black-tie” banquet at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City on Oct. 1, 2004.

Additionally, a live web stream of all Army’s home broadcasts will be made available free of charge to soldiers and military personnel around the world via CBS College Sports Network XXL, the network’s multi-media streaming platform. While the new deal between Army and CBS College Sports Network begins in 2010, the Army Athletic Association, CBS College Sports Network and Army’s former broadcast partner, ESPN, worked out an agreement for this fall that will permit CBS College Sports Network to broadcast all of the Black Knights’ home games with the exception of Army’s home date against Rutgers. Three of Army’s games will be televised live on CBS College Sports Network and two will air on the same network on a tapedelayed basis. All five of the contests will begin at noon. As part of the pact, Army’s home game with Rutgers will remain on Friday, Oct. 23 and be televised by ESPN2. In the last 13 years, 55 Army games have been televised nationally, 15 via network television. The Black Knights have played before a national television audience 33 times the past four seasons alone. A host of other games have been televised regionally. Those numbers will continue to grow this fall with eight national television appearances scheduled as of early summer. Army has had 11 of its 12 contests televised each of the past two years. Army is one of just three schools in the country guaranteed to have all of its home games televised nationally. In addition to the Black Knights’ home affairs, CBS Sports will televise the Army-Navy Classic to a worldwide audience for the 14th consecutive season.

The Hudson Valley’s premier classic rock station, WPDH (101.5-FM), Poughkeepsie, N.Y., will also broadcast live from Black Knights Alley for two hours, beginning four hours prior to kickoff of every Army home football game. The broadcast will also be simulcast on WPDA (106.1-FM), Jeffersonville, N.Y. Rounding out his first decade as Army’s lead play-by-play man, John Minko, the highly respected lead sports anchor at WFAN (660-AM), New York, N.Y., heads Army’s broadcast team, once again. Joining Minko in the booth on game day is veteran color analyst Dean Darling, whose ties to the Army football program span four decades.

We must keep the ball off the ground and place the ball in the appropriate hands.” Ellerson added that a newcomer could emerge as a legitimate starting threat at the position during preseason camp. Highly regarded freshman Trent Steelman stands at the top of that list. The talented USMA Prep School graduate directed Army’s prepsters to a highly successful showing last fall and displayed the ability to skillfully operate out of a triple-option offense. “Starting a freshman is always a possibility,” Ellerson says. “We like some of the players that we’re bringing into the program. Trent is an explosive athlete and has a background with what we do.”

OFFENSIVE LINE

CHIP BOWDEN QUARTERBACK Much of the outside attention this spring was focused on the quarterback position, where head coach Rich Ellerson and offensive coordinator Ian Shields searched to identify the individual best suited to trigger Army’s shiny new offense. Two letterwinners – junior Chip Bowden and senior Carson Williams – returned to the fold, along with a host of young quarterback candidates looking to catch the attention of the coaching staff. Ellerson and his staff used the first few practice sessions to evaluate the talent at his disposal, then moved quickly to settle on a core group that would compete for lead repetitions. When the dust settled, Bowden, Williams and sophomores Max Jenkins and Jimmy Reitter emerged as the top four players at the position, with Bowden and Jenkins breaking spring in a virtual dead heat atop the depth chart. While Bowden started nine games at the position last fall, ranking second among team rushing leaders with 572 ground yards, he struggled with his consistency in the throwing game, completing just 43.1 percent of his pass attempts. Jenkins, meanwhile, did not appear in a varsity game last fall, but possesses the skill set consistent to what Ellerson is looking for in a starting quarterback to run his explosive offense. Reitter displayed a great deal of promise before missing the latter stages of spring due to injury and Williams lends a veteran presence and retains the most accurate and strongest throwing arm amongst the group. “Max has worked himself into a very competitive situation with Chip,” Ellerson states. Chip’s got more reps, Chip’s played in games. Chip has done things that are similar to what we’re doing now. But the target moved a little on Chip, and that gave Max and James a chance to get into the mix. “We’ve got Chip and Max bracketed right now, and we’ll see how that looks during the summer. The quarterback position at the outset has to be kind of like a doctor, they have to take the doctor’s oath ... ‘Do no harm first.’ That’s what these guys have to do ... they have to do no harm first. They have to operate. They have to be secure with the football. They have to be secure with their decision-making and allow the offense to operate, allow the guys around them to make plays. That’s one of the real emphases coming out of spring – to be ef-

Army’s offensive front wall received a major makeover during spring practice with a host of new faces stepping forward to lead the Black Knights’ offense. A mixture of converted tight ends and defensive players were imported to the area with the transition to leaner, quicker linemen yielding positive results according to head coach Rich Ellerson. With only two players – seniors Jason Johnson and Ali Villanueva – expected to return from last year’s starting cast up front, turnover with the offensive line appeared inevitable. By the time spring practice had concluded and Villanueva shifted to wide receiver, not one player owning a single varsity start stood atop Army’s depth chart along the offensive line. The return of Johnson (6-2, 257), who missed all of spring practice due to injury, would change that, but not alter the overall new look that has taken hold up front. Junior Zac Peterson (6-1, 267) emerged as the most likely starter at the center position. Peterson enjoyed a solid spring and took a large step towards earning the lead role. Sophomores Brad Kelly (6-4, 231) and Mike McDermott (6-7, 248) spent the majority of spring as the starters at left tackle and right tackle, respectively. Kelly and McDermott are converted tight ends, with McDermott rating as Army’s tallest offensive lineman. Senior Duke Lull (6-3, 258) appears to be firmly in the mix at tackle as well. The position will receive a major boost should Johnson return to his past form. Senior David Sprague (6-3, 286), and juniors Mikel Weich (6-3, 277), Anees Merzi (6-3, 276) and Seth Reed (6-1, 266), who moved over from defensive line, all put forth solid showing this spring and appear most likely to battle for the two starting positions at guard. “We have a nice mixture of players in the offensive line,” Ellerson explains. “A couple were defenders, a few others shifted over from tight end. Obviously, they are all adjusting to their new areas and they are still adjusting to the emphasis we place on explosiveness and athleticism. “David Sprague and Mike Weich did a nice job and we think both Brad Kelly and Mike McDermott are going to be very good football players. They are guys that need to accelerate their physical maturity. They have to grow quickly. We’re anticipating the return of Jason Johnson who would be a veteran starter along the offensive line. With Ali out at wide receiver, he’s the lone returner to a job description that he’s had before on the offensive line and we’re frankly counting on him. We also think that Seth is a great talent that has to come to training camp ahead of where he is right now because so much of this is new for him. But he can do the things we want an offensive guard to do in this offense. Physically, he’s done everything that we’ve asked. He just needs to do it consistently without any lapses. A couple of the guys will be looking over their shoulder at Anees Merzi, who was banged up this spring. He can play either center or guard and will push for the starting role at both spots. Ellerson also cited Lull as having a strong performance this spring and expressed hope that senior Ernie Bernal (6-3, 249), another converted tight end, could make an impact once fully recovered from a foot injury this fall. “We have our fingers crossed with Ernie. Like some of those young tight ends that are having an impact at the tackle position, maybe he’s an older, more mature game-tested guy that can get into the middle of it. A lot of those guys will be doing things for the first time but I am encouraged. Athletically, they’re the right types of players. They’re tough, they’re athletic, they’re combative. And there are enough of them so it’s competitive. None of them can afford to take a day off because the competition is strong.”

FULLBACKS The 2008 season displayed the importance of the fullback in a triple-option offense. Collin Mooney entered the season with 22 rushing yards in 21 games, but 12 games later had set the Army single season rushing record with 1,339 yards. Like Mooney in 2008, the next crop of Army fullbacks has limited experience, but plenty of potential in the new triple-option system. Sophomore CeDarius Williams (5-11, 203) held the top spot on the depth chart for the majority of spring practice. Williams did not see any action as a plebe, but his showing during spring workouts put him ahead of the rest of the group. He also flashed his versatility this spring, working with the slotbacks at times. Junior Kingsley Ehie (5-10, 221) will push Williams for the starting job, but regardless will be counted on to be a contribuPATRICK MEALY tor. “CeDarius has a good football IQ,” head coach Rich Ellerson says. ‘He’s a quick study and can play the slotback position, but we like him at fullback. Kingsley is solid as well, and that position will remain competitive. The truth of it is you need a couple of guys at fullback. It’s such a demanding position, and it’s such a physical position that you need to have a couple of guys that you feel really good about as starters. If you have just one player there, you’ll feel nervous.” The most experienced member of the group is senior Bryson Carl (6-0, 245). Carl served as one of Mooney’s main backups last season and finished fourth on the team with 227 rushing yards. He was one of two players to total at least 20 carries and gain better than 6.0 yards per rush. Carl must make the transition from the bruising style he flashed last season to Ellerson’s model, which emphasizes quickness and agility. “It’s also possible that Bryson Carl, who was injured going into the spring and just had a few days, could get into the mix,” Ellerson states. “We’re emphasizing something a little different at fullback so he has had to adjust his body and his training to that. Even with that, he still has a chance to get into the middle of the competition.” Chad Littlejohn (6-0, 229) and Rob McClary (5-11, 247) will also get a chance to compete for playing time. McClary must overcome a health issue, but Ellerson is hopeful he will contribute if fully healed.

SLOTBACKS Much of the spring was spent trying to identify the most effective backs to utilize on the perimeter of Army’s new triple-option attack. The Black Knights possess a nice mix of experienced players who had some success last season and newcomers to the position who the coaches believe have the skills to excel. Junior Patrick Mealy (5-8, 203) and senior Ian Smith (5-8, 180) are the top two returning ground-gainers at the position. Smith gained 107 yards and scored two touchdowns on 19 carries in 2008, while Mealy rushed 18 times for 97 yards and a pair of scores. Sophomore George Fletcher (5-9, 195), who played in 11 games last season, was limited in spring drills, but the coaches were impressed with his ability not only to run with the ball, but as a blocker on the edge. “Ian Smith has done a nice job,” head coach Rich Ellerson offers. “He has made some great plays at the position in the past. Pat is our most complete player, and we are encouraged with what we’ve seen from George. We know he’s probably the best returning blocker. Pat is very good, and we think George is probably as good or better than Pat in that area. He’s not as polished of a runner as Pat, but he has good speed.” Junior Jameson Carter (5-11, 187) caught the attention of Army’s coaching staff with a strong showing during the early stages of spring practice following a shift from wide receiver. The speedy home run threat emerged as a serious candidate for a starting berth before missing the final stages of spring drills. He could shoulder a significant role in the Black Knights’ backfield rotation with a solid preseason performance. “Jameson is a very good football player,” Ellerson says. “He could develop into a major contributor in the backfield for us this fall. We feel that shifting him to slotback was a very good move for both Jameson and our program as a whole.” A pair of players who switched from the secondary into the offensive backfield will also receive serious consideration heading into preseason camp. Juniors Jamal Olatunde (5-8, 175) and Lawrence Brown (5-6, 164) each got their first taste of the option during spring workouts. Despite being injured shortly after his conversion, the coaches saw enough of Brown to think he has the makings of a quality slot. “We had ‘LB’ for just a couple of days, but he has great football intelligence,” Ellerson says. “He understands the game. He’s got a great learning curve. We’ve got to get him healthy, then get him strong and resilient so he can stay in there. He has a chance to get into the mix in the backfield.” Juniors Jacob Bohn (5-9, 249) and Nelson Simmons (5-8, 180) also took plenty of reps during spring practice. Even with the options on hand, the search for standout slotbacks has not ended. “We might find a guy to come and expand that group and get into the hunt at that position. Jamal, ‘LB’ or someone in the freshman class will be able to get into the competition and see some playing time.” Speed burner Alfred McDaniel (5-6, 160) enters preseason camp as a darkhorse candidate for quality playing time. The Patriot League’s two-time defending 100-meter champion outdoors, McDaniel has not participated in organized football since his high school days but injects a healthy dose of “big-play” ability into Army’s backfield corps. McDaniel could assume a vital role in Army’s offense should he complete a smooth return to the gridiron this fall.

DEFENSIVE OVERVIEW

WIDE RECEIVERS Ironically, with all the emphasis placed on the running game in the triple option, it was Army’s wide receiver position that may have drawn the most attention during this season’s spring workouts. Of course, it is quite noticeable when the previous season’s starting left tackle regularly lined up at wideout, and it’s even more startling when that player stands 6-10. A subtle switch was made at the start of the spring, pushing Ali Villanueva (6-10, 283) from tackle to guard, but a week into drills head coach Rich Ellerson and the offensive staff moved the tallest offensive lineman in Division I last season all the way outside to wide receiver. While drawing odd looks from practice observers at first, Villanueva quickly made the adjustment and became one of the Black Knights’ top three receivers. He led the team in its two scrimmages with three touchdown receptions, including two of more than 35 yards. “Ali changes the equation for us at receiver,” Ellerson contends. “Obviously, he hasn’t had a lot of balls thrown his way the last few years, but he catches the ball very, very well. He’s open whenever he stands up, and he runs well enough. We will take advantage of how physical he is in the run game as an unbalanced tackle at times, as a wide receiver cracking linebackers at times, and swallowing corners at times. He can do all those things. He really does catch the ball well. He’s got strong hands.” While the new guy drew most of the headlines, a pair of returning receivers also stood out on the practice field - senior Damion Hunter (5-10, 166) and sophomore Davyd Brooks (6-3, 200). Hunter tied for the team lead last season with 11 catches and ranked second on the squad with 134 receiving yards. He had one of Army’s three touchdown catches in 2008. Brooks made an immediate impression upon his arrival at West Point, receiving snaps with the first unit early in preseason camp. He went on to play in seven games as a plebe. “The three top guys at receiver really stand out,” Ellerson expresses. “Davyd Brooks is a great young talent, and Damion Hunter is a returner that has some big play-making ability.” Junior Matt Vane (6-4, 207) and sophomore Austin Barr (6-4, 195), one of the Black Knights’ “rising talents,’ according to Ellerson, also caught the eyes of the coaches this spring. Junior Mark Allen (6-0, 173) and senior Brian McSween (5-11, 160) will fight for playing time during preseason camp.

Another calling card of Rich Ellerson-coached squads has been the “double-eagle flex” defense he helped devise while an assistant at the University of Arizona. An aggressive, ball-hawking system that values speed and athleticism, Army’s new defense melded well with the players returning to Army’s program according to Ellerson. “I think our defense has a chance to be a very good unit,” Ellerson states. “I’m very encouraged by what we saw this spring. It’s a fun system to play in, obviously. We’ve done it for years. The guys like it. Clearly, they’re playing with some confidence. Their reaction systems are starting to come on. They’re starting to surprise themselves. They’re starting to do some things without having to think about it from a reaction standpoint, which is encouraging.” Ellerson and co-defensive coordinators Chris Smeland and Payaam Saadat spent much of the spring mixing and matching personnel to fit the new system. By the end of the spring game, Ellerson was convinced his club had made the strides necessary towards becoming a cohesive unit by the fall. “The defense is different, but some of the things we’re asking the guys to do are not dissimilar to what they’ve done in the past,” explains Army’s new field boss. “We haven’t done much. We’ve been very basic, but I think it will be relatively easy to add things to that group, and as we get into the game plan and we start to talk about pressure packages, they’ll be ready.”

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE

DAMION HUNTER

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL 2009 SEASON OUTLOOK DEFENSIVE LINE In keeping with the theme of change, head coach Rich Ellerson and the defensive staff shuffled the front four in order to put players in the best positions to be effective in Army’s new style of play. The biggest adjustment was moving one of last season’s starting ends, senior Victor Ugenyi (6-3, 262), inside to one of the club’s tackle spots. Ugenyi started all 12 games last season and was second on the squad with four quarterback sacks. “I think the defensive front has a chance to be a very good unit,” Ellerson states. “I think the defense in general, and the defensive line in particular, has to be good. It’s a different role for Victor, but he’s one of those guys that I consider a weapon.” One of the unknowns along the defensive front this spring was the health of junior tackle Mike Gann (6-2, 270). Gann started the first three games last season, but suffered a season-ending knee injury. He sufficiently proved to the coaching staff that the injury would not be a factor in 2009. “I’m really encouraged by the play of Mike Gann,” Ellerson says. “Mike had to fight his way back from injuries, and because of that he was behind the curve physically. He had to really fight to get back into the middle of it. He has the physical toughness and the motor that you associate with a defensive lineman.” In addition to the two veterans anchoring the middle, sophomore Christopher Swain (6-3, 252) flashed the ability to become another playmaker from the core of the defensive front. “Chris Swain has great potential,” Ellerson maintains. “He is one of those guys with a great upside. The only thing with Chris right now is that it will be a race to see how physically mature he will be by September.” There are plenty of other candidates to provide depth at the tackle position, including sophomore Broghan Carnes (6-2, 231), senior Fritz Bentler (6-3, 248), who started the 10 games a year ago, and senior Kyle Bates (6-2, 234). Even with Ugenyi’s move inside, the defensive end position is still stocked with playmakers. Junior Josh McNary (6-1, 225) missed the majority of the spring with an injury, but Ellerson isn’t worried about the time off. McNary showed the coaching staff what he could do on last season’s game film, where he racked up a team-high 12.0 tackles for loss and 4.5 quarterback sacks after moving from linebacker to end. “I feel very good about the end position,” Ellerson says “The end and rush end position will be well stocked. I have not seen Josh McNary except on tape, but we saw some of things he did last year. We need Josh. He has a chance to be a real weapon out there.” Junior Marcus Hilton is currently listed as the starter at the other end position. Hilton gained plenty of experience last season, playing in all 12 games and starting twice. Junior Carson Homme (6-4, 243) got a late start due to injury, but worked his way into the No. 2 spot on the depth chart behind Hilton. Senior Bradley Marren (6-1, 226) moved to end after playing linebacker last season, and serves as McNary’s primary backup at the “quick” end spot.

MIKE GANN LINEBACKERS For the second straight season, there will be plenty of new faces in the Army linebacking corps. Junior Stephen Anderson (5-10, 219) rates as the lone returning starter, but has moved from the weakside spot he occupied last season to the mike position. Anderson is the team’s top returning tackler, racking up 82 stops, including 11.0 for loss, in just 10 games last season. He tied the Academy record with five forced fumbles and led the nation with a 0.5 fumbles forced per game average. Anderson missed the last half of spring drills with a hamstring injury. “Sometimes that position can be structured in such a way that blockers can be targeted away from the mike linebacker, and he’s the right guy to give those opportunities to,” head coach Rich Ellerson says of Anderson. “We think Stephen is special. He is one of those guys we consider a weapon.” Sophomores Bill Prosko (6-2, 210) and Andre Shinda (6-0, 195) were able to use Anderson’s absence this spring to open the coaches’ eyes to their ability. Both players are in the mix to be Anderson’s primary backup at the mike position. “Andre Shinda had a good spring as did Bill Prosko,” Ellerson states “When Steve was out, those guys got a lot of reps and both showed they have some upside as a football player.”

www.goARMYsports.com

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL 2009 SEASON OUTLOOK Another unique aspect to Ellerson’s “double-eagle flex” system is the hybrid rover position, which is a mix between a strong safety and linebacker. Sophomore Steve Erzinger (6-1, 215) has been tapped to hold down that spot entering preseason camp. Erzinger played in nine games last season, primarily on special teams. He made the most of his opportunities, finishing with five tackles, including one for loss, and a blocked punt. According to Ellerson the move to the hybrid spot is still a work in progress. “Erzinger is another guy we feel could be a mike linebacker that we’re trying to get to play rover,” Ellerson says. “It’s a tough adjustment because that position is the key person in making adjustments to the defense. That is a position we will be looking hard at. An option is to play that as a dime or nickel back. Someone like (cornerbacks) Antuan Aaron could be our rover. Based on personnel packages, that’s a position that can change based on matchups.” Junior Sean Westphal (6-1, 205) is listed as the Erzinger’s primary backup, but sophomore Josh Jones (6-1, 187), a converted quarterback, could also be in the picture during preseason camp. Jones missed most of the spring with a knee injury he suffered shortly after making the move. In addition to the rover position, the whip linebacker is another unique aspect of Ellerson’s system. The whip is a “jack-of-all-trades” position that requires a player to do just about everything from rushing the quarterback to dropping into pass coverage. One of the reasons Ellerson is confident about the whip position is the presence of sophomore Andrew Rodriguez (6-3, 210). Rodriguez is listed as the starter heading into camp based on his strong performance this spring. Senior Chad Thayer (6-0, 198) has emerged as the No. 2 player on the depth chart, while sophomore Justin Schaaf (5-11, 212) will also fight for playing time.

“The whip is not quite like anything else,” Ellerson explains. “I feel good about the depth at that spot. Andrew Rodriguez and Chad Thayer are good football players. We will have a hard time keeping Justin Schaaf off the field. He is going to have a role on this football team. If you want somebody to run into something he’s your man.”

DEFENSIVE BACK The defensive backfield is full of returning players that played meaningful snaps last season. The cornerback spot alone returns three players that started at least five games a year ago, and the fourth player was Army’s much-utilized nickel back. In addition, the top four safeties boast 35 games of experience and 10 starts last season. At field corner, returning starter Mario Hill (6-0, 175) is back after making 28 tackles and breaking up a team-high six passes while starting all 12 games. Sophomore Antuan Aaron (5-9, 183), who the coaches believe is a first-team talent that can play multiple positions, finished the spring as Hill’s top backup. “Field corner is another one of those positions that can get a little bit lonely in our defense,” head coach Rich Ellerson states. “You need to have a weapon out there, and we are really fortunate to have Mario. He is a good player. We’re encouraged by Antuan and his athletic ability. We think he is a first-line corner.” The battle for the starting job on the boundary side will spill over into preseason practice. Junior Jordan Trimble (5-10, 181) appears poised to return to his lead role at the position after missing the majority of last season due to a knee injury. Trimble started five games last season before suffering a knee injury that ended his season and kept him out of spring workouts. He registered 29 stops in his six outings last fall. “Jordan Trimble is coming off a knee injury, but has played a lot of football for us,” Ellerson offers. “We feel fortunate to have him returning to that position.” Junior Donovan Travis (6-1, 187) is the most experienced of the returning safeties, and finished the spring listed as the club’s top free safety. Playing in 11 games last season, including 10 starts, Travis finished second among secondary players with 64 tackles. He led the defensive backs with two interceptions. His backup is another of Ellerson’s spring experiments. Senior Chase Prasnicki (6-1, 212) was moved from quarterback during the second week of the spring and flourished in his new role of delivering punishment rather than avoiding it. “Donovan is a real talented and experienced guy,” Ellerson says. “The job description changed there a little bit, and the progressions have changed a little bit. I feel like he has the range and presence to be a productive player for us there. We’re just waiting for him to get comfortable to turn it loose. We moved Chase back there and I’m encouraged by that experiment. He looks like he can help us. He’s gotten himself in the hunt for playing time.” The strong, or sam, safety position also has plenty of experience from which to draw. Junior Desmond Lamb (6-2, 193) played in all 12 games last season, as did his backup, junior Donnie Dixon (6-0, 196). Sophomore Johnny Franco (5-8, 190) is also in the discussion at strong safety. Lamb got a late start with the defense this spring. He worked out at quarterback, a position he played in high school, for the first three practices before returning to the defensive side of the ball. “Des Lamb got a little banged up toward the end of the spring, but we’re comfortable there,” Ellerson says. “Donnie Dixon started off in a little bit of a hole but fought his way back out of it. Johnny Franco had a good spring. He had some impressive days out there this spring.”

SPECIAL TEAMS OVERVIEW While head coach Rich Ellerson is often recognized for his unique offensive and defensive systems, he also promises to put his stamp on the Army special teams during his first season. Eschewing a special teams coordinator, Ellerson will handle the duties himself. While special teams work was limited during the spring, the first-year field boss is encouraged by what he was able to evaluate. “We have a chance to be very solid from a specialists standpoint,” Ellerson contends. “We have to surround that group with solid players. If I was concerned about any group it would be the returners because we didn’t have a chance to test that group. I’m not sure you can until you start playing games.”

Jonathan is a very technically advanced guy, but Kolin makes up for his lack of technical expertise with extraordinarily leg strength and athleticism. I feel good about the position.”

KICK RETURNERS While head coach Rich Ellerson expressed his concern over the return game, there are several options at his disposal that could quickly allay those worries. At punt returner Josh Jones is back after taking over the duties at the tail end of last season. Damion Hunter and Lawrence Brown are also being considered for their “big-play” ability. The player selected must not only be a threat to go the distance, but must also prove reliable. “At punt returner you’re rooting for the most explosive and dynamic guy, but you’ve got to make sure you get the ball caught,” Ellerson mentions. Patrick Mealy is the top kick returner back for the 2009 season. Mealy returned 12 kicks for 291 yards, the majority of which came in the season finale against Navy when he averaged better than 25.0 yards per return. He broke a 63-yarder against the Mids, Army’s longest kick return of the season. Ellerson also expects Hunter, Brown and Josh Jones to compete for repetitions as the Black Knights’ top kick return specialist.

PLACEKICKER Head coach Rich Ellerson will have an experienced kicker to work with in his first season at West Point. Junior Matthew Campbell (5-9, 195) returns after handling all the Black Knights’ placekicking duties last season. Campbell hit all 15 of his extra point tries, and finished 8 of 12 on field goals with only two misses inside of 50 yards. Ellerson, who has mentored a Lou Groza Award winner in the past, is impressed with Campbell’s technical skills. “Matt Campbell is about as technically advanced of a placekicker as I’ve worked with recently, and he has a very good leg,” Ellerson lauds. “I would like to see him go from very good to great. With the right kind of offseason, he could pick up a little more range in his placekicking and a little bit more distance on his kickoffs.” Sophomore Alex Carlton (6-0, 186) also had a productive spring and provides solid depth at the position. “Alex is not as technically sound as Matt, but is a very athletic place kicker,” Ellerson states. “I give Matt the nod at this point, but Alex is capable of competing. You don’t know an awful lot about kickers until they play with the lights on. The good news is that Matt has done that.”

PUNTER One of the biggest questions facing Army’s special teams is who will take over the punting duties from Andrew Rinehart. None of the kickers on the Black Knights’ current roster has attempted a single punt in a collegiate game. Despite the inexperience, head coach Rich Ellerson is thrilled with his options – junior Jonathan Bulls (6-1, 217) and sophomore Kolin Walk (6-0, 180). “The punters went back and forth this spring,” Ellerson explains. “Jonathan is about as technically advanced a punter as I’ve had, and Kolin is a real talent. They’re competing very, very well. It’s close there.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL HEAD COACH RICH ELLERSON

RICH ELLERSON HEAD COACH

FIRST SEASON AT ARMY 60-41 OVERALL (9 YEARS) HAWAI’I, 1977 West Point’s leadership took a major step ttowards restoring its football program to n national prominence by luring one of the ttop coaches in the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) ranks, Rich Ellerson, to S llead the Black Knights’ in late December 2 2008. One of the nation’s true triple-option experts, Ellerson agreed to become Army’s 36th head football coach on Dec. 26, 2008. Ellerson is a veteran of nearly 30 years of coaching on the collegiate ranks, including the last eight as head coach at Cal Poly. Not regarded as a traditional FCS power prior to Ellerson’s arrival in 2001, Cal Poly finished each of the last four years ranked in the Top 25 of national FCS polls. The Mustangs won at least seven games during each of the past six seasons and spent the majority of the 2008 season ranked in the top 10 of both the FCS Coaches Top 25 Poll and The Sports Network Division I-AA Poll. The Mustangs were ranked No. 3 in the FCS Coaches Poll for the final seven weeks of the regular season (and the last four weeks of The Sports Network Poll) before they were upset in the first round of the FCS playoffs by Weber State on Nov. 29. Before Ellerson’s arrival, the Mustangs had not fashioned a winning season since 1997 and had enjoyed only three winning years since 1990. West Point Superintendent Lt. Gen. Buster L. Hagenbeck said Ellerson’s proven record of success, strong leadership qualities and thorough knowledge of the triple-option offense played a large role in his selection as Army’s new football field boss. “Rich has the experience we need,” says Hagenbeck. “An award and title winning head coach who runs the option, Rich also has extensive ties to West Point and the Army. Not only are his father and two brothers members of the Long Gray Line and career Army officers, but his brother John was the Captain of the 1962 team that went 6-4.” Ellerson was named NCAA Division I-AA Independents Coach of the Year in 2003 and a year later was honored as Great West Football Conference Coach of the Year as well as AFCA Region 5 Coach of the Year.

RICH ELLERSON IS ARMY’S 36TH HEAD COACH.

Prior to his selection as Cal Poly’s 15th head football coach on Dec. 6, 2000, Ellerson served as the defensive coordinator at Arizona, holding that title from 1997 to 2000. It marked a return stint in Tucson for the highly regarded mentor. Ellerson assumed duties as the Wildcats’ assistant head coach, while overseeing Arizona’s defensive line and special teams during his first stay in the desert from 1992 to 1995. It was at that time that he first became associated with legendary former Army head coach Jim Young, who had retired as the Black Knights’ mentor following the 1990 season and assumed a volunteer role on Dick Tomey’s UA staff. Ellerson also assisted then-Army head coach Bob Sutton in installing his “Desert Swarm” defense at West Point, a stop unit that helped carry the Black Knights to a 10-2 record and a berth in the Independence Bowl in 1996. “We are extremely excited to be in position to have Rich Ellerson as our head football coach,” states Army Director of Athletics Kevin Anderson. “I have long admired his work with the triple option at Cal Poly. He has done some amazing things in building that program into a national power. His knowledge of the game on both sides of the ball made him a very attractive candidate. One of the primary goals of our search was to find someone capable of turning around our program immediately and we are confident Rich is the perfect individual to accomplish that. “Rich is a military historian with great love for West Point and has expressed strong interest in this position when it has been open in the past. He is widely regarded as one of the country’s top option coaches having spent a great deal of time with Paul Johnson over the years. As the architect of Arizona’s ‘Desert Swarm’ defense, his prowess on that side of the ball is highly acclaimed. Rich is a high-energy individual and we think his passion and enthusiasm will be a tremendous asset to our football program and cadet-athletes.” Cal Poly closed the year at 8-3 and ranked No. 8 in the FCS Coaches Poll and No. 10 in The Sports Network Poll. In two of their most memorable performances last season, the Mustangs posted a 29-27 victory over Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) member San Diego State at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego on Aug. 30 and suffered a heartbreaking 36-35 overtime loss to Big 10 Conference member Wisconsin at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wis., on Nov. 22. In guiding the Mustangs to a fourth consecutive year-ending Top 25 national ranking, Ellerson earned his third Great West Football Conference Coach of the Year honor and finished second in the balloting for the Eddie Robinson Award, which is presented annually to the FCS coach of the year by The Sports Network. His team committed a total of just six turnovers through its 10 regularseason games last season and listed 97th in the final Sagarin Ratings, ahead of such FBS schools as Memphis, Syracuse, Iowa State, Indiana, Washington and Washington State. Cal Poly captured three Great West Football Conference championships, claimed a pair of NCAA Division I-AA playoff berths and registered 48 wins in its last 70 games under Ellerson’s direction. The Mustangs’ current streak of six consecutive winning seasons marks their longest span since ripping off 13 straight winning records from 1968 to 1980. Cal Poly has captured three of its last eight games against FBS opponents, notching wins against Texas El-Paso and San Diego State (twice), while falling in overtime to Wisconsin. Employing an aggressive defensive set and an explosive triple-option offensive attack, Ellerson compiled a 56-34 record (.622) in eight seasons at the Cal Poly helm. The Mustangs posted a 48-22 record (.686) in their final 70 games under Ellerson dating back to the 2002 campaign. In nine years as a collegiate head coach overall, Ellerson boasts a 60-41 record (.594). The Mustangs’ vaunted triple-option offense experienced unparalleled success last season, establishing school records for first downs (262), first downs rushing (162), points scored (488) and touchdowns (67). Cal Poly piled up at least 49 points in six of 11 contests, topped the 50-point barrier three times and registered a season-high 69 points in a home defeat of Southern Utah. In all, Cal Poly scored in 41 of their 44 quarters of action last fall. The Mustangs finished the season ranked first nationally in both total offense (487.45) and scoring offense (44.36), second in pass efficiency (167.72) and third in rushing offense (306.45). Under Ellerson’s direction, the Mustangs won 18 of their last 30 games on the road and 30 of their last 36 home contests. They posted six shutouts during Ellerson’s eight years as head coach and did not get shut out during that same time. In all, nine Mustangs earned Sports Network All-America honors, including several players twice, and three earned Walter Camp Football Foundation All-America honors under Ellerson. Cal Poly has had a player in the East-West Shrine Game four of the last five years. Since becoming an inaugural member of the Great West Football Conference in 2004, Cal Poly had 40 players named to the all-conference first team under Ellerson’s watch.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL HEAD COACH RICH ELLERSON Among the standout players coached by Ellerson during his tenure at Cal Poly is “big-play” wide receiver Ramses Barden, who registered 67 catches for 1,257 yards and 18 touchdowns in 2008 en route to becoming the school’s career leader in all three categories (206 receptions, 4,203 yards and 50 touchdown catches). Barden recorded at least one touchdown reception in his final 20 contests, surpassing Jerry Rice’s NCAA FCS mark and Larry Fitzgerald’s all-time NCAA record. Barden caught a touchdown pass in 32 of his 46 games for the Mustangs, six more than Rice’s NCAA standard and five more than Ryan Yarborough’s all-time NCAA mark. He was a three-time first team All-Great West Football Conference selection and was the fifth Mustang in 55 years to play in the East-West Shrine Game. Barden was selected in the third round of the National League Football Draft in April, equaling Cal Poly’s highest NFL draft pick ever. While Ellerson has built a solid reputation as an innovative offensive mind, he garnered national acclaim as a defensive trend-setter last decade at the University of Arizona when he created the pressure, gap-control “Desert Swarm” defensive scheme. One year before its 2008 breakout showing, Cal Poly finished 7-4 in 2007, and finished in third place in the Great West Football Conference standings. Barden became the fifth Mustang in as many years to land a spot on the American Football Coaches Association All-America Team and swept every other first-team award as he caught 57 passes for 1,467 yards and 18 touchdowns. Cal Poly ranked first nationally in total offense, fifth in rushing offense and sixth in scoring offense en route to a No. 24 final ranking by The Sports Network. Junior center Stephen Field also was an All-American and 13 Mustangs were named to one of the Great West Football Conference all-star teams. Cal Poly scored 30 or more points seven times, broke or tied 18 all-time school records. Ellerson’s 2006 Mustang squad narrowly missed its second straight NCAA FCS playoff berth. Linebacker Kyle Shotwell became the third Mustang in as many years to win the Buck Buchanan Award, which is presented to the Defensive Player of the Year in the FCS, and played in the East-West Shrine Game. James Noble became the first running back in Cal Poly history to rush for over 1,000 yards in consecutive seasons, Chris White was named to the American Football Coaches Association All-America Team and the Mustangs’ defense posted three shutouts as the team finished ranked No. 16 nationally by The Sports Network. Twelve different Mustangs earned All-Great West honors and three were accorded All-America citations. One year earlier, Cal Poly finished 9-4 and earned a berth in the 2005 FCS playoffs, reaching the quarterfinal round before falling at Texas State. The Mustangs won five of six games against Big Sky Conference schools, the most in school history, and went 6-0 at home. Defensive end Chris Gocong earned the Buck Buchanan Award and played in the East-West Shrine Game. Gocong also was named to the AFCA All-America Team, following David Richardson in 2003 and Jordan Beck in 2004. Beck (Atlanta Falcons, 2005) and Gocong (Philadelphia Eagles, 2006) were both chosen in the third round of the NFL Draft in successive years. A total of 17 Mustangs were named to the 2005 All-Great West first or second team all-star units and six earned All-America honors. Ellerson, meanwhile, attracted national attention as he was chosen as a finalist for the Eddie Robinson Award for the first time.

In 2004, Cal Poly finished 9-2 overall and posted a 4-1 league record, capturing the inaugural Great West Football Conference championship. Cal Poly won its first seven games overall, closed the year with the school’s highest victory total in seven years and ended ranked 15th nationally (after ranking as high fifth during the course of the season). Beck was one of nine Mustangs to earn first or second team All-Great West laurels. Cal Poly notched a 6-5 record during Ellerson’s first year at the controls in 2001, delivering the Mustangs’ first winning season since 1997. Cal Poly also dramatically improved a defense that ranked near the bottom of the FCS in 2000 (279.0 yards rushing per game). In Ellerson’s first year in charge, the Mustangs finished the regular season ranked 26th nationally in the category, yielding just 122.6 yards rushing per game. Cal Poly’s pass defense was just as stingy, allowing only 213.0 yards passing per game. Using the same “Desert Swarm” system that Ellerson had installed at Arizona, Cal Poly’s defense wreaked havoc on opposing offenses all season as the Mustangs finished the regular season ranked sixth nationally in turnover margin at 1.6 per game. Ellerson’s squad posted a plus-13 in the turnover department as Cal Poly registered 30 takeaways, while giving the ball away just 17 times. In 2002, Cal Poly faced a challenging schedule with a pair of Division I FBS opponents and four Big Sky Conference members. The Mustangs slipped to 3-8 for the fourth time in five years, but won three of their final six games after an 0-5 start. Four of the losses were not decided until the game’s final moments. Cal Poly began its current run of six consecutive winning seasons in 2003, posting a 7-4 mark. The Mustangs closed the year ranked 24th nationally in rushing defense, 30th in rushing offense, 58th in total offense and 29th in total defense among the 123 Division I-AA schools. Individually, Beck was a finalist for the Buck Buchanan Award and David Richardson was named to the AFCA Division I-AA All-America Team. Ellerson left Arizona briefly, accepting his first head coaching assignment at Southern Utah University in 1996. He returned to Arizona as the Wildcats’ defensive coordinator one year later after helping Southern Utah to a 4-7 record and a national rushing title during his only year in control of the Thunderbirds. Southern Utah managed just two victories the previous season.

The Wildcats also ranked second in the Pac 10 Conference in total defense (317.5) and takeaways (33). Among the players Ellerson tutored at Arizona were future NFL stalwarts Ted Bruschi and Chris McAllister. The Wildcats combined to earn five postseason bowl berths during his two stays at Arizona (spanning eight years). Ellerson spent four years as a member of the University of Hawai’i football program during his undergraduate days, splitting time between the center and linebacker positions. He graduated from UH in 1977 and began his coaching career at his alma mater as a graduate assistant during Tomey’s first season as head coach in 1977. The Tucson, Ariz., native went on to serve one-year stints as secondary coach at Arizona Western College in 1978, linebackers and special teams coach at the University of Idaho in 1979, and defensive line and special teams mentor at Cal State Fullerton in 1980. He returned to Hawai’i for the second of his three coaching stints, tutoring the Warriors’ defensive line, outside linebackers and special teams from 1981 to 1983. Ellerson moved on to the professional ranks for the next three years, heading to the Canadian Football League. He served as defensive line coach for the British Columbia Lions from 1984 to 1985, helping to lead the Lions to a Grey Cup championship in 1985. He became defensive coordinator for the Calgary Stampeders in 1986 before accepting a similar role at Hawai’i during a third assignment with his alma mater. As defensive coordinator at Hawai’i from 1987 to 1991, Ellerson was teamed with a young triple-option guru named Paul Johnson, who served as the Warriors’ offensive coordinator at the time. Johnson would go on to experience highly successful head coaching terms at Georgia Southern, Navy and, most re-

Ken Niumatalolo, currently serving as head coach at Navy, lettered three times at quarterback (1987-89), and Ivin Jasper, presently the Mids’ offensive coordinator, lettered three times at quarterback and slotback (1991-93) for Hawai’i during that time. Ellerson became intimately familiar with the triple-option ingenuity of Johnson during those years. He would successfully install the high-powered system at Southern Utah and Cal Poly in the years that followed. The son of a career U.S. Army officer, the Black Knights’ new head football coach possesses strong ties to West Point, despite spending the majority of his life on the West Coast. While his father, Col. (Ret.) Geoffrey Ellerson, graduated from the Military Academy in 1935, his oldest brother, Maj. Gen. (Ret.) John, lettered for three years on Army’s football team and served as team captain for head coach Paul Dietzel’s Black Knights in 1962. His other brother, Col. (Ret.) Geoffrey D. Ellerson Jr., also graduated from West Point in 1963, and his nephew, Geoffrey Ellerson III, is an Army Colonel currently serving in Iraq. “I will never receive, nor have I ever received a finer compliment professionally or personally than to be entrusted with the Army football program at this point in its history,” Ellerson offers. “I grew up with Army Football. I was part of a typi-

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL HEAD COACH RICH ELLERSON cal Army family. When I was a kid, I was watching those guys at West Point, my father was a West Point graduate and we were living on Army posts all over the world. I just grew up thinking that West Point was the center of the universe. It’s a little bit of a catharsis. “I know that the offense that we run was the hook that got me into the middle of the coaching search. The reason the offense is so successful and the reason it’s so appropriate at Army is that it carries over to every phase of the game and carries over into recruiting. We’re going to find some novel solutions to problems in order to give our cadet-athletes the best possible opportunity to be successful on Saturday. We’re going to recruit and develop people that are absolutely in lock-step with the mission of the Military Academy and can be successful on Saturday. It may be a bit unique, but that’s okay. All that matters is getting the scoreboard right in the end.” Lauded for his ability to transform Cal Poly into a consistent winner, Ellerson expects to apply the same approach he used with the Mustang program to getting Army’s football fortunes turned in a positive direction. “Now that I am on the inside, we are going to find a way to be successful,” Ellerson stressed at his introductory press conference. “I don’t know exactly what that picture is yet because I don’t know enough about the team that we have. I need to get smarter about the raw material that we have to work with. I do know that I can surround myself with the right kind of coaches and we will come up with a plan, given the resources and challenges in front of us, to give ourselves a great chance to be successful from the get-go. What form that is going to take, I can’t say right now. There’s too much to find out. Every football player and every football team in America wants to win. We need to win. It’s just a whole other order of urgency. We need to. “This is a stressful time. I can’t say that I’m comfortable in the role yet, but I’m too busy, and too busy having fun visualizing and anticipating what lies ahead to be negatively affected. I’ve been dreaming about this for a long time and I’m not going to let a moment of it slip away.” Ellerson, who turned 55 on New Year’s Day, was born on Jan. 1, 1954, in Yokohama, Japan, while his father was stationed there. He graduated from Tucson’s Salpointe High in 1972. He and his wife, Dawn, have four children: Sean, 30, Shea, 26, Leta, 23, and Andrew, 16.

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ABOUT RICH ELLERSON “ “Rich is an excellent football coach whose football mind sspeaks for itself. He’s an individual that wants to be at West P Point. He thinks there’s something very important about A Army winning on the football field as it carries over into the ttotal military. I’m very high on Rich as a person, as a coach a and as an individual that will do everything in his power to h have a successful program at West Point.” Jim Young, former Army head coach (1983-90) “Army just hired the best football coach in the country. If there was ever a perfect fit in your situation, Rich is it. I know all the obvious family ties, but I’m really not talking about all those things. I’m talking about the fact that I have such a high regard for Rich as a football coach, but even more so as a competitor. He’s just a tough ‘son of a gun’ that will find any way he can to compete, and I just know that he will do very, very well at West Point. I couldn’t be more thrilled for him and his family. “When we were at Arizona, Rich was part of as good a defensive staff as there was in the country at that time. We played great defense and Rich was a huge part of that. He’s taken it to a whole new level by putting in the spread-option attack at Cal Poly and making that offense his own. Very seldom do you get someone with that level of expertise on both sides of the ball. He’s highly intelligent, but as I say, such a great competitor. If you’d ever played him one-on-one in anything, you’d know that. I just think this is such an exciting thing, because I know that Army is in a situation where you want to be more competitive, and I think you’ve made the right hire. I have no question that in an appropriate length of time, West Point is going to see tremendous growth in its program.” Dick Tomey, former head coach at Hawai’i (1977-86) and Arizona (19872000); current head coach at San Jose State (2005-present) “In terms of the X’s and O’s, Rich is a guy that has been involved in offense, defense and special teams. He was really the one behind the whole ‘Desert Swarm’ defense at the University of Arizona. It was Rich that brought that whole concept. That concept was different to college football, and it really became a national defense. His history is a lot like Jim Young’s. Jim was a defensive coach at the University of Michigan, and when he became a head coach he got involved in the offensive side of the game. That’s what Rich did at Cal Poly. He is a very passionate football coach who is very demanding, but very fair. His players just love him to death because they know he has their best interest at heart. He wants to make sure they are able to be positive and contributing members of society when they leave the university. He talks and teaches about growing men. It’s not just about X’s and O’s and first downs. It’s about more than that. I think a lot of that is his military background. Trying to find acts of selflessness is always something he teaches. I’ve known him since we were in college, and he has talked about this job ever since then. It’s West Point – it’s the job he has always targeted. I could tell by talking to him leading up to it, that he was very ready to take this job over.” Duane Akina, Asst. Head Coach/Defensive Backs Coach, University of Texas “I know that Rich has always had a love for the Academy and for West Point. I knew that if he ever had an opportunity at some point in his career that it would be a perfect fit. My son, Tyler, played for him at Cal Poly. There is nobody I would rather have mentoring my son, not only in football. To have Rich Ellerson watching over my son at Cal Poly was very comforting because I knew that my son would be very well taken care of and required to be a good student, a good person, to follow rules and to do things as Rich set them up. There is nobody I would rather send my son to than Rich Ellerson. When your kid goes away, whether it is three hours away or across the country, you want to know that the man in charge is going to have a real positive influence on your son, and I knew that Rich was that person.” Steve Mariucci, former NFL head coach and current NFL Network analyst “I am thrilled with the news that Rich Ellerson will be the new Army football coach. Being an ‘Army Brat’ with a dad and two brothers as graduates, he is familiar with the atmosphere and the challenges facing the cadets each day. He is a proven winner as a head coach, winning in an environment that is not unlike what he will find at West Point. In Rich Ellerson, we have someone who is an expert on both sides of the ball and knows how to get the job done. The triple-option expertise that he owns will be particularly important. Here’s a man bringing in a lot of passion for the job, someone that has always wanted to be the Army coach.” Rollie Stichweh, former Army quarterback (1962-64)

ANDY GUYADER WIDE RECEIVERS

FIRST SEASON AT ARMY CAL POLY, 1997 Head coach Rich Ellerson announced tthe hiring of Andy Guyader in January of 2 2009. A graduate of Cal Poly who lettered at a quarterback for the Mustangs between 1992 1 and 1996, Guyader spent the past five years on the staff at his alma mater. He m mentored the Mustangs’ wide receivers for t last five years, while also coaching Cal the Poly’s P slotbacks the past two seasons. He had been assigned the responsibility of both positions prior to the 2007 season and works with the wide receivers at West Point. Most recently, Guyader was directly responsible for four of the six possible yardage-gainers on any play from scrimmage in Cal Poly’s high-powered tripleoption attack. He originally returned to Cal Poly as an offensive assistant in 2004, working with the offensive line and had been the wide receiver coach since 2005 before joining Ellerson at West Point this winter. Among the standout receivers tutored by Guyader were Ramses Barden, who earned multiple All-America citations in 2008, and Tre’Dale Tolver, another all-league performer. Barden, in particular, authored an eye-popping career under Guyader’s teachings, finishing fourth in balloting for the Walter Payton Award in 2008. The honor is presented annually by The Sports Network to the top offensive player in the NCAA’s Football Championship Subdivision (FCS). Barden completed his Cal Poly career with 206 catches for 4,203 yards and 50 touchdowns, all school records. He also owns the NCAA record for most consecutive games with a touchdown catch, both in the FCS and all-time (20) as well as most career games with a touchdown catch in the FCS and all-time (32). He ranks No. 13 all-time with 50 career touchdown receptions as well. He caught a pass in 44 of 46 games played as a Mustang and posted 16 career 100-yard receiving games, both school records. Barden was selected by the New York Giants with the 85th pick in the 2009 National Football League Draft. During Guyader’s stint at Cal Poly, the Mustangs finished 9-2 in 2004 and 9-4 in 2005, winning the first FCS playoff game in school history. The 2006 and 2007 Cal Poly squads finished with 7-4 records, while the Mustangs spent the majority of the 2008 season ranked in the Top 10 nationally of FCS before falling in the first round of the playoffs and closing at 8-3. In addition to his on-field coaching duties, Guyader filled the role of Cal Poly’s recruiting coordinator for the past five years and had the opportunity to lecture over 40 sections of 10 different courses in both architectural engineering and computer science courses at Cal Poly. Taking advantage of several workshops at Cal Poly’s Center for Teaching and Learning, Guyader was able to implement multiple learner-based teaching techniques. These techniques maximize learner retention and aide in extending and refining knowledge both in the classroom and in position meetings. A backup quarterback and special teams standout during his playing days at Cal Poly, Guyader graduated in 1997, earning a bachelor’s degree in architectural engineering. He went on to

The new system utilized the spread-option offense, while still maintaining its vaunted passing attack. The Mustangs responded well to the switch, averaging 27.0 points and 210 yards passing per game in 2001, while Cal Poly averaged 28.7 points and 368 yards of total offense per game two years later en route to a 7-4 overall record. The Mustangs allowed just 11 sacks and ranked 35th nationally in total offense (387.18) on their way to a 9-2 record in 2004. Cal Poly ranked 20th nationally in rushing offense (207.38) in 2005 with the offensive front yielding only 15 quarterback sacks. After listing 23rd nationally in rushing offense in 2006, the Mustangs finished No. 2 in the nation in total offense, surpassed the 500-yard mark four times and shattered the school record for most points scored in a season one year later.

The Black Knights’ defensive line coach starting in the summer of 2000, Mumford assumed duties as Army’s interim head coach for the final seven games of the 2003 campaign. He was named defensive coordinator after Bobby Ross was hired prior to the 2004 season, and served in that role for five years. Overall, Mumford boasts more than two decades worth of coaching experience on the collegiate level. In addition to coordinating the defense, Mumford oversees the Black Knights’ defensive front. Prior to arriving at the Academy, Mumford served as head coach at Southeast Missouri State University from 1990 through 1999. The Lawrence, Kan., native garnered Ohio Valley Conference Coach of the Year honors in 1994. Mumford filled a one-year term as defensive coordinator at Southeast Missouri in 1989 before accepting the reins as the Indians’ 10th head coach the following season. He arrived at the Cape Girardeau, Mo., school following a seven-year term as an assistant at the University of South Dakota. A 1979 graduate of Pittsburg State University, Mumford lettered three times at tight end for the Gorillas. He began his coaching career the following year, serving a two-year stint as a graduate assistant at the University of Kansas. He was responsible for guiding the Jayhawks’ defensive linemen on both the varsity and junior varsity levels and served as jayvee defensive coordinator.

MAJ. CHAD BAGLEY

DIRECTOR OF FOOTBALL OPERATIONS

DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF FOOTBALL OPERATIONS

7TH SEASON AT ARMY WEST POINT, 1989 Now in his seventh season on the Army ffootball staff, Lt. Col. Bill Lynch occupies one o of the most important roles within the Black Knights’ gridiron program. B As the team’s director of football operations, t Lynch serves as “Military Coordinator.” t While all teams have an offensive and defensive coordinator, the uniqueness of the cadet-athlete experience at West Point requires additional coordination in areas such as summer military training, Army Physical Fitness Tests and academic scheduling. Lynch provides a myriad of logistical and administrative support to the program, while also offering a wealth of knowledge of the Academy and the Army. A 1989 West Point graduate, Lynch is eminently familiar with West Point. Now in his third tour of duty as an officer at the Military Academy, he returned to his alma mater in 2003 after graduating from the Army’s Command and General Staff College at Fort Leavenworth, Kan. While assigned to his alma mater from 1997 to 2002, Lynch served as a company tactical officer within the United States Corps of Cadets and then later joined the athletic department as a team operations officer. As a military liaison between West Point’s athletic department and the Academy’s academic and military programs, Lynch gained a unique perspective and wealth of experience in working with cadets and developing leaders of character who compete in Division I intercollegiate athletics. Lynch ranks as the first active duty Army officer assigned to the staff since Maj. John Simar departed the Academy in 1994. For the sixth straight year, Lynch is joined on staff by former Army defensive standout Capt. Clarence Holmes, who serves as an active duty coach. Commissioned in the Field Artillery branch of the U.S. Army, Lynch has served in a variety of assignments and locations, including Germany, Ft. Sill, Okla., and Ft. Knox, Ky. He has shouldered responsibilities as a fire direction officer, platoon leader, company and battalion fire support officer, battalion adjutant, battery commander and company commander. His varied career includes a mix of forces, training and doctrine command assignments to include a five-month tour in the Persian Gulf during Operation Desert Shield/Storm. He was promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel three years ago. Lynch and his wife, Martha, both natives of Westwood, Mass., reside at West Point.

He earned a master’s degree in counseling and leader development from Long Island University in 2003, before assuming duties as a tactical officer and regimental executive officer in USMA’s Brigade Tactical Department. He has attended Air Assault School, Field Artillery Officer Basic Course, Armor Captains Career Course and the Combined Armed Service Staff School. Following the 2007 season, Bagley served in Iraq for a six-month deployment. He returned in time to resume his duties at West Point for the 2008 football campaign.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL ARMY-NAVY CLASSIC THE ARMY-NAVY CLASSIC GAME-BY-GAME

THE PAGEANTRY OF THE PREGAME MARCH-ON HELPS MAKE THE ARMY-NAVY CLASSIC ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED COLLEGIATE MATCHUPS EACH YEAR. √ The storied Army-Navy rivalry will enjoy its 110th edition this season when the Black Knights and Midshipmen tussle on Dec. 12 at Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field. Only 10 Division I-A rivalries have featured more games than the Army-Navy series. √ This revered series began when Cadet Dennis Mahan Michie accepted a “challenge” from Naval Academy Midshipmen for a football game against the Cadets. That first contest was held on “The Plain” at West Point on Nov. 29, 1890. The more experienced Mids, who had been playing organized football since 1879, defeated the Cadets 24-0. √ Eighty-one of the 109 Army-Navy games have been played within Philadelphia city limits. With but seven exceptions, the Army-Navy Classic has been played in Philadelphia annually since 1945. The 1983 game was played at the Rose Bowl, while the 1989, 1993, 1997 and 2001 confrontations took place at Giants Stadium. M&T Bank Stadium (formerly PSINet Stadium) in Baltimore played host to the classic in 2000 and 2007. √ Army-Navy games have been contested at 15 different sites over the years since the birth of the series in 1890. Those sites follow: West Point (3, at two locations), Annapolis (3), Palmer Stadium (1), Franklin Field (18), Polo Grounds (9), Baltimore Stadium (2), Soldier Field (1), Yankee Stadium (2), Municipal/ John F. Kennedy Stadium (41), Veterans Stadium (17), Rose Bowl (1), Giants Stadium (4), M&T Bank Stadium (2) and Lincoln Financial Field (4). Lincoln Financial Field became the 15th different venue to host the classic when it made its Army-Navy “debut” in 2003. √ The Army-Navy series has been tied on 13 occasions (five times since 1979). The latest tie came following Navy’s victory in 2004. The Mids’ win in 2005 gave Navy its first edge in the series since 1993. Until winning in 1980 to break a 37-37-6 stalemate, Navy had not led in the series standing since 1921, after just the 24th meeting between the academies. √ Further evidence of the rivalry’s competitive nature: only 295 points (2.7 ppg.) separate the teams through the Classic’s initial 109 pairings. Navy has scored 1,669 points (15.3), while Army has recorded 1,374 points (12.6). √ CBS Sports reaffirmed it’s committment to broadcasting the storied rivalry to a national audience with a new 10-year agreement beginning in 2009. The Army-Navy Classic will be the only college football game contested on the second Saturday in December, a departure from its recent history of being played a week earlier opposite several conference championship contests.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL COMMANDER IN CHIEF’S TROPHY

YEAR-BY-YEAR RESULTS

PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH ATTENDED THE 2008 ARMY-NAVY CLASSIC IN PHILADELPHIA. IT WAS THE FORMER COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF’S THIRD APPEARANCE AT THE ARMY-NAVY GAME IN HIS EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE. Service academy supremacy is at stake on the gridiron each season when Army, Navy and Air Force battle in a round-robin schedule for the Commander in Chief’s Trophy. This year, the Trophy enters its 38th season as the pre-eminent indicator of football bragging rights among the three major service academies. Army’s most recent Commander in Chief’s Trophy title dates back to 1996, when the Black Knights assured that the Trophy would return to its original home by defeating arch-rival Navy 28-24 in Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia. To help commemorate the Trophy’s 25th birthday, President Bill Clinton was on hand at “The Vet” to present the Black Knights with the glimmering silver Trophy following their come-from-behind victory. It marked the first time that a standing President attended an Army-Navy clash since Gerald Ford looked on in 1974 to see Navy defeat Army 19-0. Former President George W. Bush witnessed the Army-Navy game in person three times during his two terms in office, attending the classic in 2001, 2004 and 2008. Prior to 1996, Army had last acquired sole possession of the Trophy in 1988. In 1993, each team split its two academy games, marking only the fourth time that all three teams shared possession of the Trophy. Army captured the inaugural Commander in Chief’s Trophy by defeating Air Force, 17-14, and Navy, 23-15, in 1972. The Trophy has resided at West Point in 1972, 1977, 1984, 1986, 1988 and 1996. Navy, which ruled the 1970s, has acquired sole ownership of the trophy seven times since 1981, capturing the hardware each of the past six seasons.

The Trophy is named in honor of the President of the United States as commander in chief of the armed forces. The three-sided structure, which weighs 170 pounds and stands 2 1/2 feet tall, is engraved with the seal of each academy and displays a reproduction of each school’s mascot. The year in which the Trophy is won is engraved on the appropriate academy’s side. The idea for the establishment of an interservice football trophy originated with the late Gen. George B. Simler, commander of the Air Training Command and a former Air Force Academy athletic director. The 1972 season was seen as an appropriate time to consider such an idea since it also marked the first season of the round-robin competition among the three teams. Simler proposed the idea to the USAFA Association of Graduates early in 1972. The Association, in turn, proposed the project to the alumni associations at West Point and Annapolis as suitable for joint sponsorship by the three institutions. Following formal adoption of the project, designs for the Trophy were sought from manufacturers. After Army’s inaugural title in 1972, Navy captured possession of the Trophy eight of the following nine years before Air Force first staked claim to the honor in 1982. The Trophy remained in the Falcons’ possession the following season when they swept the Black Knights and Midshipmen. Army recaptured the Trophy in 1984, its first outright title since 1977. The Black Knights begin the quest for this year’s CIC title on Nov. 7 when they travel to Air Force. Army will square off against Navy on Dec. 12 in Philadelphia, Pa.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL ARMY FOOTBALL A to Z

A•A•A•A•A•A ACADEMIC ALL-AMERICAS Fifteen different Army players (earning 17 different honors) have been named an Academic All-America since the program’s inception in 1952.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE Lowell Garthwaite continued a tradition of Army football excellence on the playing field and in the classroom when he was named to the 2008 ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America University Division Football Second Team as selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). Garthwaite became the 15th different Army player named an Academic All-America since the program’s inception in 1952. Two Black Knights have been honored on the national level twice. In all, 18 Black Knight players have garnered 25 district citations since 1989. Army has been represented on the District 1 club in 16 of the last 20 years.

ALMA MATER The most beloved of all West Point songs, “Alma Mater” had its beginnings as a furlough song in 1908. It was sung at the Baccalaureate Service on June 9, 1912, and took its place as a musical expression of the feelings of every West Pointer toward his alma mater. It is sung by the football team and Corps of Cadets at the conclusion of every football game. The lyrics were changed in 2008 in order to make the song gender-neutral and better reflect the sacrifices and contributions made by West Point’s female graduates.

ANDERSON, BOB

ARMY FOOTBALL TAILGATE SHOW

BILLBOARDS

The fast-paced Army Football Tailgate Show originates from Black Knights Alley in front of Michie Stadium on game days, beginning two hours prior to kickoff. A video stream of the show is made available on Army’s official Web site (goARMYsports.com) via ITT Knight Vision. The show features interviews with fans, special guests and visits from the Cadet Band, Rabble Rousers and other dignitaries in attendance.

For the second straight year, the Army Athletic Association conducted an aggressive summer marketing campaign that included billboard signage along the heavily trafficked New Jersey Turnpike, as well as strategic locations around the Tri-State region. The campaign included a host of transit shelter signage in Westchester County as well.

ARMY SPORTS NETWORK

The “fan-fest” area located on the east side of Michie Stadium on Mills Road between the East stands and Lusk Reservoir on game days is known as Black Knights Alley. Black Knights Alley, which debuted in 2004, was totally revamped in 2008 and offers family entertainment for fans of all ages, particularly youngsters, as part of Army’s pregame festivities. Following the Cadet Review, fans are shuttled via bus to Black Knights Alley, which opens to the public approximately three hours prior to kickoff. Once there, fans can visit various photograph and autograph booths, enjoy inflatable activities courtesy of Coca-Cola, military hardware displays and a host of sponsor-related giveaways, listen to the sounds of local cover band Hudson Blue, and much more. Approximately two hours prior to kickoff, the Army football team, led by the Cadet Band and Rabble Rousers, marches through a cordon of cadets and Black Knight fans en route to the locker room.

The Army Sports Network broadcasts more than 200 live events each year, providing comprehensive audio and video coverage of Army Athletics. The Army Sports Network features a four-station cluster for football, headlined by flagship station WABC (770-AM, New York, N.Y.). Additionally, the Army Sports Network will broadcast Army home games in Spanish for the fifth consecutive year with those productions heard on WADO (1280-AM, New York, N.Y.).

B•B•B•B•B•B BICENTENNIAL On March 16, 1802, President Thomas Jefferson signed into law a bill of the United States Congress authorizing the establishment of “a military academy to be located at West Point in the State of New York.” During 2002, the Bicentennial of the founding of the Academy was observed at West Point and at other designated places throughout the world. In addition to a host of high-profile events, a commemorative silver dollar and postage stamp were issued to honor the Academy.

One of the great names in Army football history, Bob Anderson received the highest honor bestowed by his sport when he was elected to the National Football Foundation College Football Hall of Fame in 2004. One of 14 Army players to earn All-America honors on two occasions, Anderson graduated from West Point in 1960 as one of the finest running backs in the Black Knights’ long, illustrious history. Named to All-America squads during his sophomore (1957) and junior (1958) campaigns, Anderson appeared headed for a third consecutive citation before an injury shortened his senior season. Only three Army players have earned All-America honors three times. Anderson was elected to the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2006.

BLACK KNIGHTS ALLEY

BLACK LION AWARD One of the most prestigious and important awards Army’s coaching staff hands out every year, the Black Lion Award is presented in memory of former Army football great Don Holleder, who was killed in combat in Vietnam on Oct. 17, 1967, and the men of the 28th Infantry Regiment (nicknamed the “Black Lions”), who died with him that day. John Plumstead became the fifth Army player to earn the award last December.

BLAIK, EARL “RED” Earl “Red” Blaik was credited with elevating Army’s football program from the “pit to the pedestal” during the 1940s. In 18 years at the Black Knight helm, Blaik compiled a 121-33-10 record and remains the winningest grid coach in West Point history. Three of his teams captured national championships and seven were crowned Lambert Trophy titlists. He was inducted in the charter class of the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2004.

ANDERSON, KEVIN

BLAIK FIELD AT MICHIE STADIUM

Kevin Anderson was named Army’s Director of Athletics at West Point in December 2004. During his tenure, Army programs have made 19 NCAA Championship appearances, captured its first National Championship in 50 years, witnessed the revitalization of its hockey and men’s basketball programs and experienced unparalleled success in several others, such as baseball, women’s volleyball, women’s basketball and women’s tennis.

One of the nation’s most venerable athletic facilities added a bit more nostalgia in 1999 when the playing surface at West Point’s majestic Michie Stadium was officially designated “Blaik Field,” in honor of legendary Army football coach and athletic director Earl “Red” Blaik. The official naming ceremonies took place during pregame festivities of Army’s home game versus Ball State on Sept. 25, 1999.

BLANCHARD, FELIX “DOC”

ARMY-NAVY

“Mr. Inside,” Felix “Doc” Blanchard, teamed with “Mr. Outside,” Glenn Davis, to form one of the most heralded backfields in the history of college football. A three-time All-America selection, Blanchard captured the Heisman Trophy in 1945, one year before Davis copped the honor. He was inducted in the charter class of the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2004. The Army Athletic Association will retire Blanchard’s legendary uniform number 35 during a halftime ceremony on Oct. 10 when the Black Knights host Vanderbilt on “Felix ‘Doc’ Blanchard Day.” Blanchard passed away on April 19, 2009, at the age of 84.

One of the most revered rivalries in all of sports will be revisited on Dec. 12, 2009, when Army and Navy clash in the service academies’ 110th grid battle in Philadelphia, Pa. It will mark the 82nd meeting between the arch rivals in the “City of Brotherly Love” and the sixth at Lincoln Financial Field, the home of the Philadelphia Eagles. As part of a new 10-year broadcast agreement with CBS Sports reached last fall, the game will be moved a week later and played on the second Saturday in December to conclude college football’s regular season, beginning this year.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL ARMY FOOTBALL A to Z CBS SPORTS For the 14th straight year, CBS Sports will televise the Army-Navy Classic to a national audience in December. This year’s game will be played Dec. 12 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pa. The network signed a 10-year broadcast extension last fall and will televise the game nationally through the 2018 season.

CBS COLLEGE SPORTS NETWORK

BLACK KNIGHTS ALLEY BOBBLEHEAD The Army Athletic Association will produce bobblehead dolls to help celebrate the careers of two of West Point’s all-time football greats this fall. A Joe Steffy bobblehead doll will be distributed to help celebrate the retirement of the 1947 Outland Trophy winner’s uniform number 61 on Sept. 19. Three weeks later, on Oct. 10, a Felix “Doc” Blanchard bobblehead will be handed out in conjunction with the retirement of the 1945 Heisman Trophy winner’s No. 35 game jersey. The items will be distributed to the first 5,000 fans attending each of those games. Pete Dawkins was the first Army player to have a bobblehead likeness produced by the AAA. The figure was distributed in conjunction with the retirement of the 1958 Heisman winner’s No. 24 game jersey on Pete Dawkins Day, Oct. 25, 2008.

BOWLS Army sports a 2-2 record in four postseason bowl appearances. The Black Knights made their first postseason appearance in the 1984 Cherry Bowl, defeating Michigan State 10-6. Army’s four postseason appearances have been decided by a total of 10 points. All four games have been decided by four points or less.

C•C•C•C•C•C CADET COLORS There is great significance to the Cadet colors of black, gold and gray. The components of gunpowder are charcoal, saltpeter (potassium nitrate) and sulfur, which are black, gold and gray in color.

CAGLE, CHRIS Chris “Red” Cagle gained All-America honors three times during the 1920s, the first Army player to achieve that feat during his career.

CAMPBELL, CALEB Caleb Campbell became the first Army football player selected in the National Football League draft since 1997 when he was chosen by the Detroit Lions with the 11th pick of the seventh round (the 218th overall selection) in the 2008 NFL Draft.

CBS College Sports Network and the Army Athletic Association recently reached an exclusive five-year agreement, guaranteeing live television coverage of every Army home football game and select neutralsite games in which Army is the home team, on CBS College Sports Network, beginning with the 2010 season and continuing through 2014. The deal was announced by Sean McManus, President, CBS News and Sports, and Kevin Anderson, Director of Athletics at West Point, at a Yankee Stadium press conference on July 22, 2009. A major component of the agreement assures that all Army home football games will be played on Saturday afternoons beginning at either noon or 3:30 p.m. eastern time with all kickoff times to be set by May 1 each year. Additionally, a live web stream of all Army’s home broadcasts will be made available free of charge to U.S. Army personnel around the world via CBS College Sports XXL, the network’s multi-media streaming platform.

CHERRY BOWL Army defeated Michigan State 10-6 in the inaugural Cherry Bowl in 1984. The game was played in the Pontiac Silverdome. This year marks the 25th anniversary of that season.

CLASS THE STARS FELL UPON West Point’s Class of 1915 is affectionately known as the “Class the Stars Fell Upon.” There were 164 graduates that year at West Point and an incredible 61 (or 37.2%) went on to attain the rank of general officer. Thirteen cadets in the Class of 1915 earned a varsity “A” in football and of those, nine went on to become general officers (69.2%). Some of the country’s most influential leaders of the 20th century were contained in the class, names like Dwight Eisenhower, Omar Bradley, James Van Fleet, Vernon Prichard, Leland Hobbs, Walter Hess, Thomas Larkin, Hubert Harmon and Roscoe Woodruff. All earned at least one varsity letter on West Point’s gridiron.

CINCINNATI Following 1,011 non-conference games, Army played its first league contest versus Cincinnati on Sept. 19, 1998. The Black Knights spent 108 years as a Division I-A Independent before joining the ranks of Conference USA.

CIVIL WAR Best-selling author John Feinstein chronicled the 1995 campaigns of both Army and Navy, culminating with the season-ending battle between the two academies, in a novel titled “A Civil War.” The book is widely regarded as the pre-eminent work in providing an inside look at the storied service academy rivalry.

COACH E’S ARMY For the bargain price of $99, fans can purchase a full season ticket (includes admission to all six home games this fall) located in the lower deck of Michie Stadium, a parking pass for the entire season along with a special “Coach E’s Army” T-shirt.

COLLEGE GAMEDAY In recognition of the United States service academies, ESPN’s popular College GameDay show originated live from West Point, N.Y., on Sept. 27, 2003, when Army hosted Conference USA rival South Florida. With a patriotic theme and the storied grounds of the Military Academy providing a historic backdrop, the nation’s premier Saturday morning college football preview show debuted at West Point, making only the third trip to one of the country’s service academies.

COMMANDER IN CHIEF’S TROPHY Named in honor of the President of the United States as commander in chief of the armed forces, the Commander in Chief’s Trophy is awarded annually to the winner of the round-robin football competition between Army, Navy and Air Force. The three-sided structure weighs 170 pounds, stands 2 1/2 feet tall and is engraved with the seal of each academy.

CONFERENCE USA After 108 years as a Division I-A Independent, Army became a member of Conference USA in 1998. In another change of direction, the Black Knights’ football program returned to Division I-A Independent status seven years later (2005).

D•D•D•D•D•D DAVIS, GLENN “Mr. Outside,” Glenn Davis, teamed with “Mr. Inside,” Felix “Doc” Blanchard, to form one of the most heralded backfields in the history of college football. A three-time All-America selection, Davis captured the Heisman Trophy in 1946, one year after Blanchard copped the honor. He was inducted into the National Football Foundation College Football Hall of Fame in 1961 and was a member of the charter class elected to the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2004. Davis’ legendary uniform number 41 was officially retired by the Army Athletic Association in 2004.

DAWKINS, PETE Pete Dawkins, who served as Brigade Commander of the Corps of Cadets, became the third West Pointer to win the Heisman Trophy when he earned the award in 1958. He was inducted into the National Football Foundation College Football Hall of Fame in 1975 and was a member of the charter class elected to the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2004. Dawkins’ legendary uniform number 24 was officially retired by the Army Athletic Association on Oct. 25, 2008, as the West Point celebrated “Pete Dawkins Day.”

DRAMATIC ARMY-NAVY FINISHES Eight of 10 Army-Navy football matchups during the decade of the 1990s were decided by 10 points or less, including an incredible five-game stretch that was decided by a total of 10 points. Army captured all five of those verdicts, with the outcome not decided until the game’s final moments in each case.

“DUTY, HONOR, COUNTRY” Three attributes of paramount importance to a soldier are Duty, Honor, Country. Each is equally important. Together these words form the motto of the U.S. Military Academy.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL ARMY FOOTBALL A to Z FORWARD PASS

HOFFMAN PRESS BOX

Notre Dame quarterback Gus Dorais and end Knute Rockne used the forward pass to help the Fighting Irish upset a heavily favored Army team in 1913. The game helped popularize the forward pass and showed how it could be integrated with rushing into a complete offense.

Construction on the $7 million, 12,000-square foot, two-story press box for Michie Stadium was completed in the spring of 2003. Funding for the project was provided as part of the Association of Graduates’ Bicentennial Campaign Plan. Mark B. Hoffman (USMA ‘69), lead donor for the undertaking, pledged $5 million toward construction of the stateof-the-art media facility, which officially opened when Army hosted Connecticut on Sept. 6, 2003.

FRIDAY NIGHT Army is scheduled to play the fifth Friday night game in its history this season when the Black Knights host Rutgers on Oct. 23. The game will be televised nationally on ESPN2. It will mark only the sixth weeknight game at West Point.

“Real time” statistics for all of the Black Knights’ home football games are available on the Army Athletics Web site at www.goARMYsports.com via Jump TV’s interactive GameWatcher feature.

In a desperate move to find a quarterback in 1955, Army head coach Earl “Red” Blaik deftly slid AllAmerica end Don Holleder to signal caller. Despite heavy criticism, Blaik stuck with Holleder through early season struggles. Holleder rewarded Blaik’s courage with a 6-3 record and a 14-6 season-ending win over arch-rival Navy. Holleder would be killed in action during the Vietnam conflict. The building that houses both Army’s intercollegiate basketball and hockey arenas is named in his honor.

Eisenhower lettered on the gridiron for Army in 1912 before graduating in 1915 as a member of the “Class the Stars Fell Upon.” Following a distinguished military career, Eisenhower was elected President of the United States in 1952 and served two terms.

ELLERSON, RICH Rich Ellerson was named the 36th head football coach in West Point history on Dec. 26, 2008. A noted triple-option expert and the architect of the Univeristy of Arizona’s “Desert Swarm” defense in the 1990s, Ellerson took the reins of the Army program after eight highly-successful seasons as the head coach at Cal Poly that included two NCAA Football Championship Subdivision playoff berths and at least seven victories in each of his final six seasons. His father and two brothers are West Point graduates, including his oldest brother, John, who served as a team captain on the 1962 Army grid squad.

F•F•F•F•F•F FACEBOOK Continuing its effort to keep Army fans up-to-date, the Army Athletic Association launched a page on Facebook last fall.

GROUND FORCES Army ranked no lower than seventh nationally in rushing during the time it featured the wishbone offense from 1984 through 1999. During that span, the Black Knights copped four national rushing titles. After an eight-year hiatus from the top 10, Army returned to the option and finished the 2008 campaign as the nation’s ninth-ranked rushing team.

H•H•H•H•H•H HALL, DALE The impossible task of replacing legendary Earl “Red” Blaik at the Army helm fell on the shoulders of Dale Hall. Hall served as the Black Knights’ mentor from 1959 through 1961.

HALL, LEAMON A strong-armed right-hander, Leamon Hall established virtually all of Army’s passing records on game, season and career levels before graduating in 1978. He passed for 5,502 yards during his West Point career on 426 completions, 38 of which went for touchdowns.

HALL OF FAME Twenty-seven players and coaches from the storied West Point gridiron program have been elected to the National Football Foundation College Football Hall of Fame, located in South Bend, Ind. Many others with West Point ties have also been enshrined. Arnold Tucker became Army’s latest representative in the shrine when he was elected in 2008.

HEISMAN TROPHY Since the inception of the Heisman Trophy in 1935, three Army players have garnered the award. Only four other schools — Notre Dame (7), Ohio State (7), Southern California (7) and Oklahoma (5) — have had more winners.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE

Arch rivals Army and Navy collided for the 100th time on Dec. 4, 1999, in Philadelphia, Pa. It marked the 12th NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision series to reach the elite club.

I•I•I•I•I•I INDEPENDENCE BOWL Army capped a record-setting 1996 campaign with a December trip to the Poulan/Weed Eater Independence Bowl. After establishing a school record witth 10 victories, the Black Knights’ furious fourthquarter rally fell just short, losing to heavily favored Auburn 32-29 when a potential game-tying 27-yard field goal sailed wide right in the final minute.

INDEPENDENT For its first 108 years, Army’s football program battled as an Independent, winning three national championships and forging one of the richest football traditions in the land. The Black Knights initiated a new chapter in their vast football lore in 1998 when they embarked upon their first campaign as members of Conference USA. Army’s brief, sevenyear foray into conference life ended in 2005 as the Black Knights returned to Independent status.

INSTANT REPLAY In the fourth quarter of Army’s 21-15 loss to Navy in 1963, CBS utilized the first television “instant replay” on a touchdown run by quarterback Rollie Stichweh. Hall of Fame broadcaster Lindsay Nelson made the call for CBS.

INTERVIEWS Beyond his regular Tuesday press conference, head coach Rich Ellerson is available for interviews by appointment only. Please direct all interview requests to Senior Associate Athletic Director Bob Beretta at (845) 938-3303. Ellerson will schedule interviews based on availability on Mondays and between noon and 1 p.m. on Wednesdays.

J•J•J•J•J•J JARVIS, CHARLIE In a 58-25 romp over Boston College on Nov. 9, 1968, Charlie Jarvis carried the ball 22 times for 253 yards and two touchdowns, setting an Army single game rushing mark that remained in place for more than three decades. He finished the year with 1,110 ground yards, an Academy record at the time. Jarvis’ single-game standard remained in place until Michael Wallace piled up 269 rushing yards in Army’s double-overtime defeat of Louisville in 1999.

MICHIE STADIUM

JONES, CARLTON Carlton Jones graduated from West Point in 2006 ranked second on Army’s career rushing list with 3,356 ground yards. He closed his career 763 yards shy of Mike Mayweather’s all-time Army record of 4,299 yards. Jones set a single season school record with 17 rushing touchdowns in 2004.

K•K•K•K•K•K KICKING MULE The familiar “Kicking Mule” was adopted as Army’s official intercollegiate athletic logo during the mid1970s. The logo was demoted to “retro” status when the Army Athletic Association unveiled a new family of marks during the summer of 2000.

KIMSEY ATHLETIC CENTER Ranked as the highest priority project in the U.S. Military Academy’s Bicentennial Campaign, Kimsey Athletic Center directly supports the Army football program. Nestled among several of the U.S. Military Academy’s showcase athletic facilities (Michie Stadium, Holleder Center and Truxtun Center) Kimsey Athletic Center is located behind the south end zone of Michie Stadium. Construction on the project spanned from January 2001 to the spring of 2003. The price tag ($40 million) was covered entirely by private contributions.

KIPER, MEL ESPN football analyst and National Football League Draft guru Mel Kiper recently honored West Point’s Michie Stadium as the nation’s “Most Scenic” venue for college football in a posting on ESPN.com. Kiper also selected the Army-Navy game as owning the “Best Atmosphere” in college football. The lists were based on Kiper’s opinion from over 25 years of covering, watching and traveling to college football games as a fan, observer and analyst.

L•L•L•L•L•L LINCOLN FINANCIAL FIELD The sparkling home of the Philadelphia Eagles, Lincoln Financial Field serves as home to the ArmyNavy Classic each of the next two years. The $395 million, 70,000-seat state-of-the-art facility opened in August 2003, and has hosted four of the last five Army-Navy battles. It stands as the fourth different Philadelphia stadium to host the event and the 15th different venue in the series’ fabled history.

LOGO The Army Athletic Association contracted New Yorkbased SME Power Branding, a nationally renowned brand building firm, to develop a new family of marks in 2000.

LOMBARDI, VINCE A host of future National Football League coaches cut their respective coaching teeth along the banks of the Hudson. In addition to the likes of Bill Parcells, John Mackovic and Frank Gansz, Vince Lombardi served a coaching stint at West Point. Lombardi was an assistant under Army head coach Earl “Red” Blaik from 1949 to 1953.

LONELY END In 1958, Army head coach Earl “Red” Blaik introduced a formation that famed sportswriter Stanley Woodward described as “the lonely end.” Bill Carpenter earned the illustrious assignment during spring practice. When the formation was first installed Carpenter would break from the huddle and rush to his spot, split 15 yards wide of the offensive line. After six or seven plays he required a break. Blaik developed signals and Carpenter remained out of the huddle by himself. The new formation caught the imagination of football fans throughout the nation.

LONE STAR STATE The state of Texas has long been fertile recruiting ground for the Army football program. Twenty players listed on this year’s roster hail from the Lone Star State.

M•M•M•M•M•M MACARTHUR, GEN. DOUGLAS A 1902 West Point graduate who served as football team manager in 1903, Douglas MacArthur became General of the U.S. Army in 1944. During his tenure as USMA Superintendent, MacArthur initiated an intramural sports program that was to become a model for both Army posts and colleges all over the country. Included among his most famous quotes are the following: “From the Far East, I send you one single thought, one sole idea, written in red on every beachhead from Australia to Tokyo. There is no substitute for victory!” and “Upon the fields of friendly strife, Are sown the seeds That, upon other fields, on other days, Will bear the fruits of victory.”

MARCH-ON One of the time-honored traditions of the Army-Navy Classic is the March-On into the stadium conducted by the Corps of Cadets and Brigade of Midshipmen prior to team warm-ups.

MARSHALL, GEN. GEORGE C. “I want an officer for a secret and dangerous mission. I want a West Point football player.” Gen. George C. Marshall, chief of staff of the U.S. Army, uttered this most famous phrase during World War II.

MASCOT Since 1899, mules have served as the mascots for the Corps of Cadets. The choice of the mule as a mascot reflects the long standing usefulness of the animal in military operation — transporting guns, supplies and ammunition. Strong, hearty and persevering, the mule is an appropriate symbol for the Corps of Cadets.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL ARMY FOOTBALL A to Z has called New York Giants, New York Knicks and New Jersey Nets games on WFAN in the past. Joining Minko in the booth on game day once again will be veteran Army color analyst Dean Darling, whose ties to the Army football program date back to the early 1970s, veteran Army broadcaster Bob Outer and Rich DeMarco, the Black Knights’ assistant athletic director for marketing, broadcasting and multi-media.

MOONEY, COLLIN Collin Mooney broke the Black Knights’ single season rushing record in 2008 by gaining 1,339 yards. Mooney, Army’s main offensive weapon in its switch to the triple-option, set the record with a one-yard gain on the final play from scrimmage versus Navy. The Black Knights’ bruising fullback rushed for at least 100 yards in five games and became just the third Army player to rush for more than 200 yards twice in the same season.

N•N•N•N•N•N NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS Army teams captured consecutive national championships in 1944, 1945 and 1946 under head coach Earl “Red” Blaik.

COLLIN MOONEY MAYWEATHER, MIKE Army’s career rushing leader with 4,299 yards, Mike Mayweather held the Academy’s single-season mark as well with 1,338 ground yards from 1990 to 2008. The St. Louis, Mo., native finished 10th in the Heisman Trophy balloting in 1990. Mayweather was inducted into the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2005.

MEYER, CHARLES R. “MONK” Charles R. “Monk” Meyer played an instrumental role in Army’s success during the 1935 and 1936 seasons. Although small by most standards at 143 pounds, Meyer was an exceptional runner, solid kicker and impressive passer. He lettered two seasons and earned All-America honors in some quarters.

NATIONAL EXPOSURE In the last 13 years, 55 Army games have been telecast nationally, 15 via network television. The Black Knights are scheduled to have at least eight of their 12 games televised this year (eight nationally), thanks in large part to an agreement struck between CBS College Sports Network and the Army Athletic Association this summer. Army has experienced unprecedented national exposure the past four years, garnering a total of 33 national television appearances. In all, 11 of Army’s 12 contests were televised last season, tying the highest number of seasonal television appearances in the history of the program. Eight of those contests were broadcast nationally.

Dennis Mahan Michie is credited with introducing the sport of football at the U.S. Military Academy. Michie Stadium is named in his honor. Michie was killed in action during the Spanish-American War. He was inducted into the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2005.

Army closed the 1996 season ranked 24th nationally, the last time the Black Knights have closed a year listed in the Top 25.

NICKNAMES Army’s athletic teams ushered in the new millennium by undergoing a change in identity. While “Cadets” had been the preferred nickname of Army’s athletic teams for many years, “Black Knights” is now recognized as the primary nickname for the Academy’s athletic teams. Though not viewed as the preferred nickname, “Cadets” remains an accepted moniker.

Next to Navy, Notre Dame stands as Army’s mostplayed opponent. The teams’ 2006 meeting in South Bend marked the 49th battle between the storied grid programs. Series highlights have included Notre Dame’s 1913 win that popularized use of the forward pass; the Irish’s victory in 1924 that prompted Grantland Rice to write about the “Four Horsemen;” and the famous “Win One for the Gipper” speech delivered by Knute Rockne in Notre Dame’s 1928 triumph. The two powers were accorded national championship trophies eight times in the 35-season span between 1913 and 1947. The height of the classic rivalry came during the mid-1940s when the Cadets and Irish captured successive national titles from 1943 through 1947. Two of the last three meetings (1995 and 1998) between Army and Notre Dame have been decided by a total of four points, with the heavily favored Irish surviving upset scares in both outings. In July, Army and Notre Dame announced a neutral-site contest between the fabled rivals set for Nov. 20, 2010 in New York’s Yankee Stadium.

ARMY TAKES THE FIELD VERSUS NAVY IN PHILADELPHIA OVERTIME

PHILADELPHIA

Army experienced the first overtime contest in school history on Oct. 7, 1999, when the Black Knights defeated Louisville 59-52 in double-overtime during a wild Thursday night encounter along the banks of the Hudson. Recognized by several national outlets as the most entertaining game of the 1999 college football season, the nationally televised contest also marked the first Thursday evening home affair in West Point history. The Black Knights have played five overtime contests in the past three years, winning four of those affairs. Army had its four game overtime winning streak snapped in 2008 with a 27-24 loss at Buffalo. In all, Army is 5-1 all-time in overtime.

With roots dating back to the 19th century, the storied Army-Navy football classic has been played somewhere in the city of Philadelphia 81 of the 109 times the two arch rivals have met. As part of a longterm agreement announced during the spring of 2003, the 2009 Army-Navy battle will be held in the “City of Brotherly Love” at Lincoln Financial Field. Army and Navy announced this spring that Philadelphia will host five Army-Navy games during an eightyear span from 2010 through 2017.

OVERTIME ONLINE The Army Athletic Association added a football postgame show to its multi-media cache in 2007 with the development of “Overtime Online.” “Overtime Online” originates from Randall Hall Auditorium following Army’s home games and includes coverage of postgame press conferences featuring head coach Rich Ellerson and selected Black Knight players. The show is hosted by Rich DeMarco and Cody Chrusciel and is broadcast on Army’s official Web site and the Michie Stadium video board via ITT Knight Vision.

“PLAIN, THE” “The Plain” remains one of the most famous lawns in the nation. Scenically tucked between Washington Hall and Trophy Point, it has been the site of thousands of full dress cadet parades over the years.

PRESIDENT Former president George W. Bush became the second standing United States President since Gerald Ford in 1974 to attend the Army-Navy game when he witnessed the Black Knights’ 26-17 defeat of the Mids in December 2001. President Bush made a return visit to the classic in 2004, addressing both teams in their respective locker rooms prior to the battle. He watched the first half from the Army side of the stands before switching to the Navy side during halftime. Bush also attended the final Army-Navy game of his presidency in 2008. Prior to Bush, Bill Clinton had been the most recent standing president to watch the service academy battle in person.

PRESS CONFERENCE Head coach Rich Ellerson hosts a weekly press conference each Tuesday before a Saturday game. The media sessions are held in Randall Hall Auditorium, beginning promptly at 1 p.m. A live video stream of the press conference is available via the Army Athletic Association’s official Web site at www. goARMYsports.com via ITT Knight Vision.

Army has a primary agreement with the EagleBank Bowl, set for Dec. 29, 2009, in Washington, D.C., to appear in the postseason contest opposite an opponent from the Atlantic Coast Conference.

QUARTERS There are four quarters in a football game. In addition, military housing accommodations are generally referred to as “quarters.”

R•R•R•R•R•R RABBLE ROUSERS Army’s cheerleaders, better known as “Rabble Rousers,” are all members of the U.S. Corps of Cadets. They support a host of activities in addition to Black Knight athletic contests.

RETRO LOOK Former head coach Bobby Ross returned the Black Knights to a familiar look after he took the reins of the Army football program in 2004. The Black Knights currently sport a similar uniform style to that worn by the Black Knights during the decade of the 1940s under Earl “Red” Blaik. Army’s home jerseys feature a “classic” look with black, gold and gray stripes on both sleeves and gold “tackle twill” numbers affixed to the front and back. Army’s stripeless gold pants match the Black Knights’ timeless gold helmets. The team’s road white jerseys also bear black, gold and gray stripes on both

sleeves, complementing solid gold pants. The Black Knights captured three consecutive national championships while sporting the classic uniform style under Blaik.

RUSHING TITLES Army captured four national rushing titles during its most recent “wishbone era,” dating from 1984 through 1999.

S•S•S•S•S•S SASSAMAN, NATE Quarterback Nate Sassaman, a converted defensive back, served as Army’s trigger man when the wishbone offense debuted in 1984 under head coach Jim Young. Sassaman guided the Black Knights to a national rushing title that year and their first postseason berth.

SKYDIVERS The pomp and pageantry of a West Point football Saturday is unmatched. One of the highlights of every Army home game takes place when the game ball is delivered by skydivers that jump into Michie Stadium, weather permitting.

SPANISH RADIO In a bold initiative, the United States Military Academy became the first service academy to broadcast its football games in Spanish five years ago. Since that time, the Army Sports Network has broadcast all of its home games, in addition to all Army-Navy contests in Spanish. For the third straight year, Army’s Spanish broadcasts will be heard on WADO (1280-AM, New York, N.Y.) this fall. WADO also carries Spanish broadcasts for the New York Jets, New York Mets and New York Knicks, among others.

TELEVISION Thanks to an agreement between ESPN, Inc. and the Army Athletic Association beginning in 2005, Army has experienced unprecedented national exposure the past four years, garnering a total of 33 national television appearances. In all, 11 of Army’s 12 contests were televised last season, tying the highest number of seasonal television appearances in the history of the program. Eight of those contests were televised nationally. Army struck a new broadcast deal with CBS College Sports Network this summer that guarantees live national television coverage for each of the Black Knights’ home football games through 2014.

THREE Michie Stadium garnered a third-place rating on the Sports Illustrated list of “Favorite Venues,” published in its June 7, 1999, edition. The magazine’s selection committee wrote the following about its favorite venues: “There’s something about being there. And where exactly would you be if you weren’t on your couch? Where would you go to register the click of the turnstile, the feel of wooden slats beneath you, the whiff of stale beer? Wrigley, Wembley, Williamsport. Odd little cathedrals with strange rituals and sacraments (Dodger Dogs!). You’d be someplace that was engineered for sensory overload, not skybox revenue, the smell of peanuts on a summer breeze mingling with the roar of V-8s. You’d be someplace varnished in layers of history, the satiny armrest reminding you that somebody else sat here and saw Babe Ruth hit his 60th. You might be in some abomination of architecture, but you’d be someplace. So here’s where we’d be if we could just take in a game some afternoon. We’d be in one of these places, hunched in a time-polished bleacher, humoring the ghosts in the outfield, trying to remember where the hell we parked. Eating a Dodger Dog, probably. Years later, when pressed to explain the unique drama of that afternoon — just smells and sights and sounds, really — we’d say, You had to be there.”

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL ARMY FOOTBALL A to Z THROW-BACK JERSEYS As part of the Army-Navy game’s centennial celebration, the teams wore “throw-back” game jerseys for their 100th meeting on Dec. 4, 1999. The Black Knights donned replicas of the familiar uniform tops worn by the Army teams of the 1940s and 1950s. Navy, meanwhile, sported the uniform style of its teams from the 1960s. The Black Knights wore similar “throw-back” jerseys for their game against Rice in 1995. Army honored its national championship teams from 1944, 1945 and 1946 that day as the Black Knights and Rice played to a 21-21 tie. Former Army head coach Bobby Ross introduced similar “retro” uniforms in 2004 that are worn regularly in an effort to harken back to the “Golden Era” of Army football.

THURSDAY NIGHT Army hosted Louisville on Oct. 7, 1999, in the first Thursday night contest at West Point’s Michie Stadium. The game, a classic 59-52 double-overtime victory for the Black Knights, was televised live nationally by Fox Sports Net.

THE U.S. CORPS OF CADETS IS ALSO KNOWN AS ARMY’S “12TH MAN.”

Felix “Doc” Blanchard and Glenn Davis teamed to form one of the most prolific backfields in the history of college football. Dubbed the “Touchdown Twins,” Blanchard and Davis combined to score 97 touchdowns and 585 points from 1943 through 1946. The latter mark still stands as an NCAA record.

operated out of the wishbone attack most recently from 1984 through 1999. During the 16 years it worked out of the ‘bone, Army captured four national rushing titles and made the only four postseason bowl appearances in school history. While Army will not feature the wishbone attack this season, it will continue to utilize the option game heavily under first-year head coach Rich Ellerson.

TRADITION

TUCKER, ARNOLD

“TOUCHDOWN TWINS”

One is hard-pressed to find a football program steeped in more tradition than Army’s. In their 120th season of intercollegiate competition, the Black Knights sport an overall record of 637-449 51 (.583). Army teams have captured three national championships (1944, 1945 and 1946) and seven Lambert Trophy titles. Three Army players have copped the Heisman Trophy and 27 players and coaches have been elected to the National Football Foundation College Hall of Fame.

Another Army football legend took his rightful place among college football’s all-time greats last spring when Arnold Tucker was elected to the National Football Foundation College Football Hall of Fame. Tucker received the Sullivan Award in 1946 as the nation’s top amateur athlete. As a part of the famed Army backfield that featured Tom McWilliams and Heisman Trophy winners Glenn Davis and Felix “Doc” Blanchard, Tucker earned first team All-America honors that same season. Tucker quarterbacked the Cadets to a 27-0-1 record and three national championships from 1944 to 1946. Army also won three Lambert Trophy titles as the top team in the East during his tenure. Tucker tallied 1,127 passing

touchdowns and 10 touchdowns in his three seasons at West Point after playing at the University of Miami in 1943. Tucker was inducted into the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2008.

TWELFTH MAN West Point’s Corps of Cadets has long been recognized as Army’s 12th man on the field. The Corps remains one of the most spirited student bodies in the nation.

TWITTER Continuing its effort to keep Army fans up-to-date, the Army Athletic Association launched a page on Twitter this spring. The page is located at www. twitter.com/ArmyAthletics. Members of Army’s Athletic Communications staff provide regular “tweets” about Army athletics.

U•U•U•U•U•U ULLRICH, CARL Former Army Director of Athletics Carl Ullrich is widely regarded as the person responsible for returning Army’s storied football program back to the national forefront. In 1983, Ullrich turned the reins of the West Point gridiron program over to Jim Young, who would engineer one of the greatest turnarounds in the history of the sport. Ullrich became the first administrator elected to the Army Sports Hall of Fame in 2007, inducted as part of the fourth class enshrined in the hall.

Officials from the Army, Navy and USAA announced a 10year agreement in July that will allow USAA to serve as the presenting sponsor of the Army-Navy football game. As part of the agreement, the classic will be titled, “The Army-Navy Game, presented by USAA.” USAA is a diversified financial services group of companies and is among the leading providers of financial planning, insurance, investments and banking products to members of the United States military and their families, including both cadets from West Point and midshipmen from Annapolis. The presenting sponsorship is a first for the fabled Army-Navy classic and reflects the first nationally televised sports sponsorship for USAA, which is based in San Antonio, Texas.

WABC, whose 50,000-watt clear channel signal can be heard in 38 states and Canada, served as the flagship station for the Army Sports Network in 2000.

The Army football program’s fortunes turned upward after head coach Jim Young installed the wishbone offense in 1984. During the 16 years it operated out of the ‘bone, Army captured four national rushing titles and made the only four postseason bowl appearances in school history.

WEST POINT West Point, also known as the United States Military Academy, was the first United States military post built after the Declaration of Independence. In its inception, it was under the command of Benedict Arnold. Established in 1802, it is the oldest military academy in the United States. Students are referred to as cadets. Collectively, graduates are known as “The Long Gray Line” because of the color of cadet uniforms and the unbroken line of West Point graduates. West Point trains more U.S. Army officers than any other single institution and a high proportion of distinguished American generals have been West Point graduates. Currently, over 900 graduates are commissioned as U.S. Army lieutenants every year, representing 25 percent of new lieutenants commissioned. The Military Academy is located at West Point, New York, on a scenic overlook of the Hudson River, about 50 miles north of New York City. Occupying over 16,000 acres, it is one of the largest school campuses in the world. By comparison, the United States Naval Academy covers 338 acres and United States Air Force Academy spans 18,000 acres.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL GRIDIRON DATELINE The heritage associated with Army Football is richly intertwined within the fabric of college football’s development since Rutgers and Princeton met in 1869 in the first competitive college game ever. Army’s first team took the field in 1890 and Black Knight squads have been rewriting history since.

1890—Cadet

Dennis Mahan Michie accepts a challenge from midshipmen at Navy for a football game. Michie, who organizes, coaches and prepares the Army team, directs his charges onto “The Plain” on Nov. 29 for that historic contest. The more experienced Mids secure a 24-0 victory, but intercollegiate football at West Point is born.

1891—Army opens its first full season of football with its first victory, a 10-6 verdict over Fordham. Later, in the season finale, the Cadets make their first road trip and secure a 32-16 win at Navy. Dr. Harry Williams guides Army to a 4-1-1 record that season.

1892—Under the direction of Dennis Michie once again, the Cadets post a 3-1-1 mark. Army registers three straight shutouts, blanking Stevens (42-0), Trinity (24-0) and Princeton Reserves (14-0). Navy snaps the streak with a 12-4 win.

The neutral zone along the line of scrimmage is created and the field is cut from 110 yards to 100 yards.

1919—Cadet senior Earl Blaik is among a host of disappointed Army players after a 6-0 loss to Navy at the end of a 6-3 season. Blaik will return in 1941 to begin a long and glorious career as Army’s head coach.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL GRIDIRON DATELINE and giving the Cadets their fifth straight victory over the Mids. The win also secures the Academy’s first outright Commander in Chief’s Trophy title since 1988 and propels the Cadets to a record 10th win. Bob Sutton, who would later earn the “Bobby Dodd National Coach of the Year Award,” guides the Cadets to their fourth postseason bowl appearance as Army faces SEC power Auburn in the Poulan/Weed Eater Independence Bowl. By virtue of its vaunted wishbone attack amassing 346.5 yards per game, Army cops its third national rushing title of the “Wishbone Era.” The Cadets, who see their furious fourth-quarter rally fall just short in a 32-29 loss to the Tigers, finish the season ranked 24th in the USA Today/CNN Coaches poll and 25th by the Associated Press. In March of 1997, Superintendent Lt. Gen. Daniel W. Christman announces the Cadets will join Conference USA beginning in 1998.

1998—Seventeen months of anticipation comes to an end as the Cadets explode onto the Conference USA scene by defeating Cincinnati 37-20 at Michie Stadium in the first conference battle by an Army team in 109 seasons of intercollegiate football action. The Cadets, evoking memories of the 1995 squad, play a host of tight contests but come up short in most instances. Army battles nationally ranked Notre Dame for 60 minutes before a late field goal gives the Irish a 20-17 home win. Army closes the campaign with a 34-30 come-from-behind win over Navy after trailing 30-19 entering the fourth quarter. Sophomore quarterback Joe Gerena comes off the bench to spark Army, while the Cadets rip the Mids’ defense for three long scoring runs (69 yards by Gerena, 70 yards by Ty Amey and 71 yards by Craig Stucker). Army leads the nation in rushing for the third time in six years and fourth time since instituting the wishbone. 1999—Army’s second season in Conference USA features the Black Knights’ first Thursday night home game as Army and Louisville battle at Michie Stadium. Behind a record-setting 269 rushing yards from fullback Michael Wallace, Army prevails 5952 in double overtime. The game, which sees the Cadets build a 45-17 halftime lead before the Cardinals storm back to forge a 45-45 tie at the end of regulation, marks Army’s first overtime contest.

Quarterback Joe Gerena forces a second overtime when he finds halfback Brandan Rooney for a 9-yard TD toss on 4th-and-6. He scores the game-winning touchdown on a 7-yard run before the Cadet defense halts Louisville on its final possession. Earlier in the year, Army defeats Ball State on the day the Academy dedicates the Michie Stadium playing surface in honor of legendary mentor Earl “Red” Blaik. At season’s end, Navy turns back the Cadets 19-9 in the 100th meeting of the storied Army-Navy rivalry. In the weeks following Army’s season, West Point officials replace head coach Bob Sutton with Todd Berry, who had taken Illinois State to the Division I-AA playoffs in 1998 and 1999. The Redbirds reach the national semifinals in 1999.

2000—The Black Knights establish or tie 12 individual and team records on game, season and career levels during the first year of new head coach Todd Berry’s wide-open one-back multiple set. Senior running back Michael Wallace leads the way by posting the Academy’s 10th 1,000-yard rushing season (1,157). He also rips through Air Force for 201 rushing yards to become the first Army player ever to post two 200-yard rushing days in his career. Omari Thompson becomes the first Black Knight to return two punts for scores in one season since Glenn Davis in 1944.

2001—Head coach Todd Berry’s diverse offensive attack sets single season Academy records for pass completions (196) and passing yards (2218). In all, the Black Knights set or tie eight records on game, season and career levels. Army concludes the year with a 26-17 win over Navy at Philadelphia’s Veterans Stadium. 2004—Army participates in its final season as a member of Conference USA under the direction of legendary head coach Bobby Ross. Ross was named the 34th head coach in West Point’s illustrious football history the previous December in an effort to help return the program to the state of its storied past.

2005—After opening the year with six successive losses, Army rebounds with four straight wins. The win streak opens with Army’s first road shutout (20-0 over Akron) in 37 seasons and also features a 27-24 road win over Air Force, the Black Knights’ first victory at Falcon Stadium since 1977. Running back Carlton Jones eclipses the 1,000-yard rushing plateau for the second consecutive season. 2007—Assistant coach Stan Brock, a 16-year veteran of the National Football League, is named Army’s 35th head coach after Bobby Ross announces his retirement in January. Wide receiver Jeremy Trimble becomes Army’s career leader in receptions, receiving yards and touchdown receptions. In a thrilling 20-17 overtime win against Tulane, quarterback Kevin Dunn and receiver Mike Wright combine on a 36-yard “Hail Mary” on the final play of regulation to cap a 10-point, fourth-quarter comeback. 2008—Following the 2007 season, standout defensive back Caleb Campbell is selected in the seventh round of the National Football League Draft by the Detroit Lions, becoming the first Army player to be chosen by an NFL franchise since Ronnie McAda in 1997. Later in the year, senior fullback Collin Mooney rushes for 1,339 yards to break the Academy single season rushing record previously set by Mike Mayweather in 1990. Mooney posts five 100-yard rushing games and becomes only the third Black Knight to register two games of more than 200 rushing yards in a season. Following the season, Mooney is chosen to play in the East-West Shrine Game. Three weeks after the annual ArmyNavy Classic, Rich Ellerson is named the 36th head football coach in West Point history.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL 1944 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS “Seldom in a lifetime’s experience is one permitted the complete satisfaction of being part of a perfect performance. To the coaches, the 23-7 is enough. To the squad members, by hard work and sacrifice, you superbly combined ability, ambition, and the desire to win, thereby leaving a rich heritage for future Academy squads. From her sons West Point expects the best—you were the best. In truth, you were a storybook team.” - Head Coach Earl “Red” Blaik The numbers bound off the page with the explosiveness of a “Doc” Blanchard burst up the middle. Fifty-six points per game ... five-hundred-four points scored ... thirty-five points allowed ... four shutouts ... nine wins without a loss ... six first team All-America selections. Never before had a college football team authored such astonishing credentials. No squad has been able to duplicate that dominance since. Many college football historians contend the 1944 Army squad ranks as the finest college club ever assembled. Critics are hard-pressed to build a substantive argument against those bold assertions. It was the prelude to a dynasty, a decade of success never experienced along the banks of the Hudson. And it began with the hiring of Earl “Red” Blaik as Army head coach following the 1940 season. Blaik enjoyed immediate success at West Point, leading the Cadets to three consecutive winning records during his first three years at the Army helm. With World War II raging, colleges all over the country suspended the eligibility rule for freshmen. West Point was no exception, and Blaik’s teams benefitted greatly. The crafty mentor was able to secure appointments for some of the nation’s top young players. The most important addition to the 1943 club was a standout halfback named Glenn Davis. Though only a plebe, Davis starred for the Cadets that year. Another one of Blaik’s prized recruits arrived at West Point the following year in the form of Blanchard. Together “Mr. Inside” (Blanchard) and “Mr. Outside” (Davis), as they were labeled, would form one of college football’s greatest running duos.

“THE GREATEST OF ALL ARMY TEAMS —STOP—WE HAVE STOPPED THE WAR TO CELEBRATE YOUR MAGNIFICENT SUCCESS. MACARUTHER.” —TEXT OF MACARTHUR TELEGRAM TO EARL “RED” BLAIK ON DEC. 2, 1944 Still the hard-running backfield tandem was but a single component within Army’s vast arsenal. In fact, Army’s depth was so great that Blaik fielded two squads. The “Lombardo Team,” quarterbacked by Tom Lombardo, consisted primarily of plebes, including Blanchard and Davis. The “Kenna Team,” led by senior signal caller Doug Kenna, started every game before yielding to Lombardo’s unit at the start of the second quarter. Once asked to select the best game he saw these teams play, Blaik responded, “That’s easy. It was a Wednesday afternoon in October when they scrimmaged each other. Each scored two touchdowns, but the intensity and execution were the best I ever have seen on any gridiron, any place.” As a whole, the unit was awesome, easily becoming the first unbeaten and untied team at West Point since 1916. In order, the Cadets pounded North Carolina (46-0), Brown (59-7), Pittsburgh (69-7), Coast Guard (76-0), Duke (27-7) and Villanova (83-0). The Cadets set their sights on mighty Notre Dame next. It had been 13 years since Army had defeated the Irish, but that streak ended at Yankee Stadium as

the Cadets registered a surprising 59-0 rout. Fears of a letdown the following week versus Pennsylvania were quickly quelled when Army blitzed the Quakers 62-7. That verdict set the stage for a climactic showdown with arch-rival Navy. The matchup, pitting the top-ranked Cadets against the second-ranked Midshipmen, would decide the national championship. A crowd of better than 70,000 packed Baltimore’s Municipal Stadium to witness Army roll to a 23-7 victory. That night Blaik received a telegram: “The greatest of all Army teams—STOP—We have stopped the war to celebrate your magnificent success. MacArthur.” Still one of the most inspirational tributes came from Blaik, himself. “Seldom in a lifetime’s experience is one permitted the complete satisfaction of being part of a perfect performance. To the coaches, the 23-7 is enough. To the squad members, by hard work and sacrifice, you superbly combined ability, ambition, and the desire to win, thereby leaving a rich heritage for future Academy squads. From her sons West Point expects the best—you were the best. In truth, you were a storybook team.”

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL 1945 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS As the Army football team prepared for the 1945 season, victory had been declared in the Pacific and Gen. Douglas MacArthur called for a “better world” to emerge from the ashes of World War II. Soldiers were returning from Europe, and the United States was celebrating the end of almost four years of global conflict. West Point’s 1945 grid squad, meanwhile, faced the daunting task of replicating the accomplishments of Army’s 1944 team, which included the Cadets’ first perfect season in nearly 30 years, a national championship and collegiate records for scoring and scoring margin that still stand today. Fortunately, Felix “Doc” Blanchard, Glenn Davis and Arnold Tucker returned to see if they could create a football dynasty. The team dubbed “Blaik’s Black Knights” by New York Sun sportswriter Will Wedge would ultimately measure up to the task. During an easy 32-0 season-opening victory over Personnel Distribution Command of the Army Air Force stationed at Louisville, Ky., a new star emerged in the Black Knights’ constellation. Thomas “Shorty” McWilliams, a plebe who had been a standout at Mississippi State in 1944, guided Army’s Wing-T offense to a lopsided win. The Cadets followed with lopsided verdicts over Wake Forest (54-0), Michigan (28-7), Melville, R.I., USN (55-13), Duke (48-13) and Villanova (54-0). The Cadets expected a stern battle against Notre Dame the next week at Yankee Stadium. More than 75,000 fans witnessed an awesome Army display as the Cadets proved their convincing win over the Irish one year earlier was no fluke, cruising to a 48-0 victory. A week later, Blanchard and Davis combined for five touchdowns as Army crushed longtime nemesis

Pennsylvania 61-0, handing the Quakers their worst loss since 1888. Moreover, that game has been called “Army’s peak game of all time.” According to noted sportswriter Tim Cohane, “The Black Knights were invincible on the attack, overpowering on the defense. Their blocking and tackling were murderous; their team speed blinding.” The Cadets would need every bit of that talent two weeks later against undefeated Navy in Philadelphia. As was the case in 1944, the game would decide the national championship.

Army raced out to a 20-0 first-quarter lead and the Midshipmen could never recover, falling 32-13 as Blanchard finished with three touchdowns and Davis with two. Honors came pouring in for the team and its players. Army was the unanimous national champion, and Blanchard captured the Heisman Trophy as the nation’s outstanding player. Davis was runnerup. Blanchard also received the Maxwell Cup and Walter Camp Trophy as college football’s outstanding player and the Sullivan Award as the outstanding amateur athlete in America. Six Army players were tabbed as first team All-America picks. Evaluating the squad that year, Blaik called it the greatest team he had ever coached. Some have argued that the 1945 Army team was the best in the history of college football. One look at the team’s accomplishments makes it hard to debate that assessment.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL 1946 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS Only eight starters from Army’s 1945 national championship team returned to the West Point fold the following year as the Cadets attempted to capture a third consecutive national championship. Fortunately for head coach Earl “Red” Blaik, the returning players included standouts Felix “Doc” Blanchard, Glenn Davis and Arnold Tucker. The Cadets kicked off their 1946 campaign against Villanova, racing to an easy 35-0 victory, but the win was tainted when Blanchard suffered a serious knee injury. Diagnosed as a torn anterior cruciate ligament and a torn membrane, Blanchard’s ailment would have sidelined lesser players for the entire year, yet Blanchard would return the following month. Defeats of Oklahoma (21-7) and Cornell (46-21) followed, setting the stage for a rematch against No. 4 Michigan in the Wolverines’ new stadium in Ann Arbor, Mich. Playing for the first time since his knee injury, Blanchard proved little threat to the Wolverines until scoring the game-winning touchdown, sparking second-ranked Army to a 20-13 win. Michigan head coach Fritz Crisler said later that season, “We played our finest game of the year against Army,” and Wolverine running back Bob Chappuis admitted, “We were three months recovering from that game.” Blanchard began to regain his form against Columbia the next week, scoring four times in the Cadets’ 48-14 whipping of the Lions. Consecutive 19-0 shutouts of Duke and West Virginia preceded another showdown with No. 1 Notre Dame. The nation’s two top-ranked teams went headto-head at Yankee Stadium in a classic defensive struggle that ended in a 0-0 tie. Notre Dame stiffened six times with Army inside the Irish 30, while the Cadets allowed Notre Dame past midfield just three times all day. The scoreless deadlock snapped Army’s winning streak at 25 and each team maintained its national ranking.

MICHIGAN HEAD COACH FRITZ CRISLER SAID LATER THAT SEASON, “WE PLAYED OUR FINEST GAME OF THE YEAR AGAINST ARMY,” AND WOLVERINE RUNNING BACK BOB CHAPPUIS ADMITTED, “WE WERE THREE MONTHS RECOVERING FROM THAT Army shrugged off early offensive lethargy to deal Pennsylvania a 34-7 setback heading into the annual season-ending battle with arch-rival Navy. The season had taken a dreadful toll on the Black Knights, who nonetheless were unbeaten entering the fray. A crowd of 100,000 jammed Philadelphia’s Municipal Stadium for one of the most stunning contests in the history of the series. Army jumped out to a 21-6 halftime bulge, but Navy came roaring back, closing to within 21-18. As time wound down, Navy drove to the Army 3-yard line, but two late plunges by fullback Lynn Chewning and another by Pete Williams, who was corralled by Barney Poole, proved fruitless.

As the ball sat just four yards from paydirt and a Navy upset, the clock ran out on another frenzied service academy classic, providing Army with a 2118 win and its third straight undefeated season. Notre Dame was named national champion in five polls that year with Army claiming top honors in two others. The teams were listed as co-champions in three additional rankings. Still, Army had much to be proud about. Davis accepted the Heisman Trophy as the outstanding football player in the nation. Tucker received the Sullivan Award as the country’s outstanding amateur athlete. And Blaik was named “Coach of the Year” by the Football Coaches Association of America. In all, four Cadets garnered first team All-America honors. Looking back on his players and the teams of Army’s glory years, Blaik said, “‘Doc’ and Glenn did more for West Point football than any other player or coach in history.” That fact still holds true today.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL THE HEISMAN TROPHY The John W. Heisman Memorial Trophy Award is presented each year by the Downtown Athletic Club of New York to the nation’s outstanding college football player. First known as the D.A.C. Trophy, the award was renamed in 1936 for John W. Heisman, the first athletic director of the Downtown Athletic Club, a football player at Pennsylvania and Brown and a coach for 36 years, including tours at Auburn, Oberlin, Clemson, Akron, Pennsylvania, Rice, Washington & Jefferson and Georgia Tech. The bronze trophy was sculpted by Frank Eliscu with the help of one of Notre Dame’s “Four Horsemen,” Jim Crowley, whose Fordham players posed as models. Since the inception of the Heisman Trophy in 1935, three Army players have garnered the award. Only four other schools—Notre Dame (7), Southern California (7), Ohio State (7) and Oklahoma (5)—have had more winners.

Army’s “Mr. Inside,” Felix “Doc” Blanchard, and “Mr. Outside,” Glenn Davis, captured the Heisman in back-to-back years in 1945 and 1946, respectively, leading Army to national championships in both years. Just over a decade later (1958), Pete Dawkins led the Cadets to their most recent Lambert Trophy title and their last undefeated season (8-0-1) on his way to earning the honor. In 1990, Mike Mayweather became the first Army player to attract serious attention from Heisman voters since Dawkins’ selection more than 30 years prior. Mayweather, who graduated from West Point in 1991 as Army’s all-time leading rusher and the most prolific runner in service academy history, finished 10th in the Heisman balloting, garnering three first-place votes. An All-America selection who also finished as second runnerup in voting for the inaugural Doak Walker Award, Mayweather rushed for a school-record 1,338 yards in 1990, concluding with a career mark of 4,299 yards.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL DAWN OF A NEW ERA

EARL “RED” BLAIK (LEFT) COACHED THREE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP TEAMS, SEVEN SQUADS THAT WON THE LAMBERT TROPHY AND 28 FIRST-TEAM ALL-AMERICANS. The day was dank and dreary; a bitter chill gripped the thick November air. A crowd of 48,000 had gathered at Philadelphia’s Franklin Field, barely half of what the old house would fit, to watch Pennsylvania mangle Army. On a different afternoon, during a different season, Army would have won the game easily, brushed aside the Quakers like a bothersome younger brother. But this was 1940 and the mighty West Point grid program had spiraled off the map. And just when it appeared Army’s free-fall could plummet no further, the Cadets suddenly sank two more rungs. It was bad enough the Cadets had been outscored 90-15 in five previous losses, but this 48-0 drubbing at the hands of Pennsylvania tore viciously at the heart of every West Pointer. The Black Knights were outgained in total yardage by a frightening 409-185 margin, and stumbled to just one scoring opportunity in the process. Never before had a West Point team been so soundly thrashed, not even in three prior shutouts earlier that same miserable season. The Army program had hit rock bottom now. And that was clearly evident to one visionary seated solemnly on Franklin Field’s cold, wooden stands. As fate would permit, Brig. Gen. Robert Eichelberger, two days shy of beginning his tenure as Academy superintendent, was on hand for the whipping. He was aghast at what he saw. Eichelberger was so disgusted that, in what may have been his first official act as superintendent at West Point, he called a meeting of the athletic council. “I was impressed Saturday, by the way the cadets cheered our team right to the end of that 48 to 0 beating by Pennsylvania,” said Eichelberger in an account provided in Tim Cohane’s “Gridiron Grenadiers.” “It looks as if we are developing the finest bunch of losers in the world. By the Gods, I believe the Cadets deserve a football team which will teach them how to be good winners!” Up until that point, the Academy had selected only graduate officers to serve in its head coaching positions. Eichelberger felt the practice had become outdated. He favored hiring the best coach available. The only logical choice in his mind was Earl Blaik, a West Point graduate who had been an Army assistant before becoming head coach at Dartmouth in 1934.

144

But Blaik, who had resigned his commission in 1922, was a civilian and the board met his candidacy with great resistance. Eichelberger, though, would not be denied. Shortly after the meeting had adjourned, he contacted Blaik and soon offered him the position. “For several weeks I pondered a decision,” Blaik would write in his book, “You Have to Pay the Price.” “On one side was the happiness of my family, my assistants and myself at Hanover. It had been all and more than I could have wanted. I also knew what Army football had been once, what it had come to be, what it should be. For that reason, I had a strong compulsion to answer Eichelberger’s call.” Before he accepted the offer, Blaik demanded that two conditions be met. One was that his entire staff at Dartmouth be allowed to join him at West Point. The other had to do with the liberalizing of height and weight restrictions that had been in place since the early 1930s and limited football recruiting. Not long after announcing his resignation at Dartmouth on Christmas Day, Blaik was introduced as West Point’s new head football coach. So began a glorious era in Army lore. During 18 years at the Cadet helm, Blaik compiled a 121-33-10 record and remains the winningest coach in West Point history. Three of his teams captured national championships and seven were crowned Lambert Trophy titlists. Under his masterful guidance, 28 Cadets garnered first team All-America honors. Three of them won the Heisman Trophy. Fifteen assistant coaches who worked under Blaik went on to become successful head coaches at major colleges and universities, names such as Lombardi and Gilman and Warmath. A two-time national coach of the year selection, Blaik was enshrined in the National Football Foundation’s College Football Hall of Fame in 1964 and was presented that organization’s Gold Medal Award two years later. In 1986, just three years before his death at the age of 92, Blaik was accorded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Ronald Reagan. He was the man most responsible for restoring a onceproud football tradition along the banks of the Hudson. The man most responsible for building upon that tradition like no one else. For that, Earl Blaik will forever be immortalized.

EARL “RED” BLAIK

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL “TOUCHDOWN TWINS” They came from separate coastlines but together formed one of the most dynamic backfield tandems in college football history. Felix “Doc” Blanchard and Glenn Davis; “Mr. Inside” and “Mr. Outside;” “The Touchdown Twins.” By any name, they were simply the finest pair of running backs to ever pass through West Point’s storied gates. And they ruled college football from 1944 to 1946, stealing the attention of an entire nation while leading Army to three consecutive national championships. Earl “Red” Blaik, the fabulous head coach who single-handedly reversed Army’s football fortunes after his hiring late in 1940, was responsible for bringing both to the Academy. Blaik first learned of Davis from a friend early in 1943. A young halfback from LaVerne, Calif., Davis set several offensive records at Bonita High School, scoring a record 256 points during his senior year. So Blaik wrote to Davis’ parents, broaching the subject of an appointment to the Academy. Davis expressed interest, studied for the validating examination, and entered the Academy on July 1, 1943. But Davis ran into trouble with his plebe mathematics course that first year and was dismissed from the Academy. Undaunted, he returned home and enrolled in a special four-month math course at Pomona College. He was readmitted to West Point in 1944. Joining forces with Blanchard in his first year as a varsity regular, Davis captured All-America honors, leading the nation in scoring with 120 points. He also authored an amazing 11.1 yards-per-carry average. Among his honors that season, Davis was proclaimed “Outstanding Halfback of the Year” by Walter Camp, “Outstanding Player of the Year” by the Maxwell Club and “Outstanding Player of the Year” by the Helms Foundation. After repeating as the Helms Foundation choice in 1945, Davis was awarded the Heisman Trophy in 1946, one year removed from having been narrowly beaten out by Blanchard for the award. He also earned his third consecutive All-America citation. Davis finished his Army career with 2,957 yards rushing, 855 yards passing and an eye-popping total of 59 touchdowns scored (43 rushing, 14 receiving, two punt returns). His career rushing average of 8.26 yards per carry remains an NCAA record.

FELIX “DOC” BLANCHARD (LEFT) AND GLENN DAVIS (RIGHT) WITH HEAD COACH EARL “RED” BLAIK. ALL THREE ARE MEMBERS OF THE COLLEGE FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME.

“MR. INSIDE,” FELIX “DOC” BLANCHARD (RIGHT), AND “MR. OUTSIDE,” GLENN DAVIS, WON BACK-TO-BACK HEISMAN TROPHIES IN 1945 AND 1946, RESPECTIVELY. “Anybody who ever saw Davis carry the football must realize there could not have been a greater, more dangerous running back in the history of the game,” wrote Blaik in his book, “You Have to Pay the Price.” “He was emphatically the greatest halfback I ever knew. He was not so much a dodger and side-stepper as a blazing runner who had a fourth, even fifth gear in reserve, could change direction at top speed, and fly away from tacklers as if jet-propelled.” Still, many claim that Blanchard was the best prospect of those championship Army teams. At 6 feet, 210 pounds, he was a punishing athlete who could run, block and catch, and complemented the speedy Davis tremendously. A native of Bishopville, S.C., Blanchard initially attended the University of North Carolina, but after completing his freshman year, tried to enlist in the Navy’s V-12 program unit at North Carolina. He was turned down because he was considered overweight and had a vision problem. Blanchard then enlisted in the Army, took basic training in Miami, and was assigned to the Army Air Force’s ground school in Clovis, N.M. After finally obtaining an appointment to West Point, he entered the Academy on July 2, 1944. Like his running mate, Blanchard was a three-time All-America selection who graduated from the Academy with a Heisman Trophy tucked neatly under his arm. That was one of a wealth of honors for Blanchard, who also garnered the Maxwell Cup, Walter Camp Trophy and Sullivan Award in 1945. By winning the latter, he became the first football player chosen the outstanding amateur athlete in America. He closed his West Point docket with 1,666 yards rushing and 38 touchdowns scored (26 rushing, seven receiving, four interception returns and one kickoff return). “‘Doc’ Blanchard was the best-built athlete I ever saw: 6 feet and 208 pounds at his peak, not a suspicion of fat on him, with slim waist, Atlas shoulders, colossal legs,” Blaik wrote. “For a big man, ‘Doc’ was the quickest starter I ever saw, and in the open he ran with the niftiness as well as the speed of a great halfback. If he had been serious about it, Blanchard could have become an Olympic decathlon star.” They combined to score 97 touchdowns and 585 points from 1943 to 1946, a mark that stood as an NCAA standard for 60 years. And while their records may not last forever, the legacy of “Mr. Inside” and “Mr. Outside” certainly will.

HALL OF FAME HAS STRONG ARMY INFLUENCE Founded in 1947 by immortal journalist Grantland Rice, legendary Army coach Earl “Red” Blaik and West Point graduate Gen. Douglas MacArthur, the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame is dedicated to mobilizing the constructive forces of amateur football at all levels for the benefit of society as a whole. In addition to the visionary foresight of Blaik and MacArthur, who helped shape the Foundation in its early days, the College Hall of Fame carries a distinct Army flavor as 27 former players and coaches have been included among the game’s elite. In addition, others with West Point ties, like Bill Yeoman ’50 and Bob Neyland ’16, have been enshrined. Recognized as the “Father of Cougar Football,” Yeoman forged a sparkling 160-108-8 (.597) record during a 25-year stint at the University of Houston, leading the Cougars to 11 bowl games and four Southwest Conference championships. Neyland, named head coach at Tennessee in 1926, spent 27 seasons at the helm of the Volunteers’ program. In that time, his squads amassed a 173-32-12 record and captured four national championships. Neyland was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1956. The Foundation inducted its first class into the Hall of Fame in 1951, and each year the gridiron’s greatest collegians have been enshrined among the pantheon of players who have shaped the game. Today, the College Football Hall of Fame is located in South Bend, Ind. More than 900 players and coaches, who exemplified the Foundation’s basic creed of Scholarship, Citizenship and Performance, are honored in a world-class museum. Former President and Foundation Gold Medal recipient Dwight D. Eisenhower summed up the impact of college football with the following: “In football, in business, in the trades and the professions, the normal urge to excel provides one of the most hopeful assurances that our kind of society will continue to advance and prosper. Morale ... the will to win, the fighting heart ... are the honored hallmarks of the football coach and player. This morale, this will, this heart ... we need not only in athletic teams as individual, but collectively.”

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL BOWL APPEARANCES

1985 PEACH BOWL ARMY 31, ILLINOIS 29

1984 CHERRY BOWL ARMY 10, MICHIGAN STATE 6

DEC. 31, 1985 • ATLANTA, GA.

DEC. 22, 1984 • PONTIAC, MICH. PONTIAC, Mich.—Army had claimed three national championships and seven Lambert Trophy titles, had three Heisman Trophy winners and countless All-Americans; but had never participated in a postseason bowl game. That was prior to 1984. After a 7-3-1 slate during the regular season, the Black Knights were chosen to battle Michigan State in the inaugural Cherry Bowl at the Pontiac Silverdome. Army scored only one touchdown during the game, but that proved to be enough in a 10-6 win over the Spartans. The Cadets converted on two MSU miscues for both their scores. In the second quarter, State quarterback Dave Yarema lost the ball when hit by Bob Kleinhample, before teammate Jim Gentile pounced on the fumble on the MSU 46-yard line. Eight runs later, the leading rushing team in Division I-A got on the board when Clarence Jones scored from the 4-yard line. Late in the third quarter, Gentile forced another State fumble; this time it was Jim Jennings covering the loose ball. Craig Stopa capped off the ensuing drive midway through the fourth quarter with a 38-yard field goal, upping the Black Knights’ lead to 10-0. The Spartans also cashed in on a turnover for their only points in the game. Following a Doug Black fumble, Yarema hit Robert Wasczenski with a 36-yard scoring strike. Quarterback Nate Sassaman, who joined Black in the 1,000-yard rushing club that season, was chosen the “Offensive Player of the Game” with 136 rushing yards. The Black Knights limited Michigan State to 89 yards rushing, capping a stellar 8-3-1 showing and a season that heralded Army football’s return to the national spotlight.

ATLANTA, Ga.—For the second year in a row, Army was invited to a postseason contest, won the game and defeated a Big Ten Conference team in the process. This time, Army’s ground forces outlasted Illinois’ high-powered passing attack 31-29 in the rain and mud of Atlanta’s Fulton County Stadium. However, it was the foot of Army’s Craig Stopa that provided the margin of victory. With the Black Knights leading 28-23, Stopa nailed a 39yard field goal in the final quarter to stretch the lead to eight points. Illinois quarterback Jack Trudeau hit David Williams on a 54-yard scoring strike with just 34 seconds left, but his two-point pass attempt was batted down by reserve safety Peel Chronister. His two interceptions and outstanding overall play earned him “Defensive Player of the Game” honors. Cadet quarterback Rob Healy, who was cited on offense, picked up 107 yards on the ground, including a 22-yard TD. Two other Army backs added to the scoring, but through the air. Halfbacks William Lampley and Clarence Jones each threw an option pass for six points, hitting split ends Benny White and Scott Spellmon, respectively. Fullback Doug Black scored on a 1-yard run. The win gave the Black Knights a 9-3 final mark, tying the Academy record for victories in a season, last achieved by the undefeated Army team of 1949. Trudeau enjoyed a stellar passing day for Illinois, completing 38 of 56 attempts, but it was not enough.

2009 ARMY FOOTBALL BOWL APPEARANCES

1988 JOHN HANCOCK SUN BOWL ALABAMA 29, ARMY 28 DEC. 24, 1988 • EL PASO, TEXAS

EL PASO, Texas—Following a two-year absence from postseason play, the Black Knights returned to bowl action after going 9-2 in 1988. Looking to extend its unblemished record in postseason bowls to 3-0, Army faced its stiffest holiday-time test, meeting perennial Southeastern Conference power Alabama in the 55th John Hancock Sun Bowl. The Crimson Tide entered the contest heavily favored—by as much as two touchdowns—yet trailed 14-3 less than one minute into the second quarter, unable to solve the Black Knights’ polished wishbone attack. Army rolled up 232 yards on the ground in the first half alone, including 96 by fullback Ben Barnett, who finished the day with a career-high 177 rushing yards. In the first half, Tide All-America linebacker Derrick Thomas blocked a pair of Keith Walker field goal attempts. After the Crimson Tide had taken its first lead of the game on a 23-yard scoring pass from Mike Smith to Greg Payne in the third stanza, the Cadets answered back when Mike Mayweather just reached the flag on 4th-and-goal from the ’Bama 3. Little more than one minute later, that advantage swelled to 28-20 when Army defensive back O’Neal Miller intercepted an errant Smith toss at his own 43-yard line and returned it 57 yards for a touchdown. Alabama owned the final 15 minutes, rallying for nine points while limiting Army to just 14 offensive plays and 33 total yards.

1996 POULAN/WEED EATER INDEPENDENCE BOWL AUBURN 32, ARMY 29 DEC. 31, 1996 • SHREVEPORT, LA.

SHREVEPORT, La.—After compiling the Academy’s first 10-win regular season, Army’s compelling 1996 grid saga was capped by a furious fourth-quarter rally that just fell short against heavily favored Auburn in the 21st annual Poulan/Weed Eater Independence Bowl. Trailing 32-7 in only their fourth postseason bowl appearance, the Black Knights turned the tide on Southeastern Conference stalwart Auburn and posted 22 points in the final stanza as quarterback Ronnie McAda masterfully brought Army to within the shadow of the end zone once again as time ticked away. Facing a 3rd-and-6 on the Auburn 10-yard line with 33 seconds left, head coach Bob Sutton called upon senior J. Parker for a potential gametying 27-yard field goal. Parker, who closed his career ranked fourth on Army’s field goals made list and had not missed from inside the 40 all season, pushed his kick to the right and Auburn escaped. Demetrius Perry and Bobby Williams delivered fourth quarter scoring runs to bring Army close. After Auburn was unable to move the ball, McAda marched the Cadets 70 yards in seven plays. His 31-yard scoring pass to Rod Richardson pulled Army within a field goal in the waning moments. A successful onsides kick set the stage for Army’s final drive.

Michie Stadium, splendid in its scenic beauty and long recognized as one of the most popular stadiums in the nation, will celebrate its 85th anniversary (86th season) as the home of Army football during the 2009 campaign. Over the years, the venerable stadium has received its share of plaudits as one of the most desired locations in which to watch a college football game. Recently, noted football analyst Mel Kiper Jr. of ESPN. com hailed the Academy’s game day atmosphere as among the most inspirational in the country. In addition, renowned sports periodicals Sports Illustrated and The Sporting News have heaped lofty praise upon the historic arena by listing it among their top all-time venues. The legendary facility has undergone an overhaul that will help maintain its lofty status for years to come. Included among the many upgrades in recent years are a new playing surface that was installed last summer and the addition of a state-of-the-art scoreboard with a 20-foot-by-50-foot high-definition video display that was also erected prior to the 2008 season. Realizing the need for a permanent athletic field as Army’s football program continued to assert itself nationally, West Point officials selected a patch of meadow land adjacent to Lusk Reservoir and within the shadow of historic Fort Putnam. Construction of Michie Stadium was completed in 1924, just in time for Army’s 35th football campaign. In 85 previous seasons in Michie Stadium, the Black Knights have compiled a remarkable record of 312-140-7 (.687). Only 15 Division I-A stadiums, and just six located east of the Mississippi River, are older than fabled Michie Stadium. The original stadium structure was formally dedicated to the memory of Dennis Mahan Michie, who was instrumental in starting the game of football at the U.S. Military Academy in 1890. It was Michie who organized, managed and coached the first football team in history at West Point. In honor of legendary mentor Earl “Red” Blaik, Army christened the Michie Stadium playing surface “Blaik Field” on Sept. 25, 1999, when Army hosted Ball State. Blaik, a gridiron innovator, compiled an 18-year Army record of 121-33-10 and brought the Black Knights their only three national championships (1944, 1945, 1946). The winningest coach in Army annals, Blaik is enshrined in the College Football Foundation Hall of Fame. The Black Knights honored the dedication in grand style, trouncing the Cardinals 41-21.
