This is Navy's roster and since our problem is a lack of size at all positions you should be able to explain why Navy is able to win with this bunch of blue chips. Jesuit's roster looks better than this. Your model arguments are very ignorant. It would help if we could get some academic casualties but that is not the main problem.

If Navy can get this bunch of recruiting castoffs to win we should be able to do much more. They definitely don't get better athletes to go to Navy so don't even try saying otherwise. :x

Navy 4-2
SMU 1-5

I spent all last week explaining that and I'm too busy paying attention to the UTEP/ECU Game in OT where UTEP's 8 star backfield is going for another 400 total offense game. UTEP gets a FG and ECU has the ball.

Stallion I found one of the Prep Stars on NAVY'S Roster that came out of their great prep school feeder system.

He's their starting Offensive Guard 6-1 281, nice measurables there. I think there are bigger guys eating wings at Hooters nightly.

Just in case you want to know the facts Navy only has 4 players on their roster who went to prep school. I guess the others must be a result of their grant program. :lol:

Go read the New York Times article which says 11 starters-half the starting lineup came from the Prep team on a recent team. Obviously, Navy prefers to keep that quiet because they enter as Freshman after receiving an appointment.

"When Navy's undefeated football team plays Notre Dame on Saturday at Giants Stadium, 11 of the Midshipmen's starters will be graduates of the Naval Academy prep school. The United States Military Academy and the Air Force Academy have similar prep schools, places where dozens of athletes in the student body get, in effect, a redshirt year before heading into the academies.

I don't think there's a four star on Boise State's roster either. Or on Hawaii's with the exception of Brennan.

FWIW, I haven't heard Doherty [deleted] about the model. He's signed three stars pretty much across the board except for Walker. As I recall, Harp is an excellent student. Athletes do come in good student variety; we just can't get them to play football here.

All things the same, model or not, SMU or not, if Harp was being recruited by PB and not Doh, does anyone really think we would've gotten him? How about Papa? or Benny?
