Love her or hate her, Judy did everything to get USF to be an academic powerhouse - AAU Membership, Grants, Research, etc…
Football or no, it’s a better school, hands down, to UCF - the rest will come
What a night it’s been. Thumbs numb, eyes dry, Twitter feed no longer updatable, but we made it.
Look for a game breakdown tomorrow AM, threadstyle.
WHAT A GAME!

No words do justice to this coach, this program, and the dedication to victory. Sustained commitment to excellence in the face of practical realities and limitations of FBS football at a service academy. GREAT ARTICLE

What to say about this Army Team?
With only the most important game of the year left on the docket, now may be a good time to look at where we are, how we got here, and what the future has in store - a 🧵 (x18)
For clarification, Army moving from gun-option to under center option
Not to get into intricacies of triple option/flexbone/spread option/wing T…BUT, heading back UC following recent internal appointment of OC/good hair aficionado Cody Worley
Oh yeah, and we ‘bout to run AAC
FBS Off-season-program of the day.
ARMY BLACK KNIGHTS
- Really solid HS signing class this year
- 2024 will be Army’s first year in AAC, great schedule to start (AF, ECU, UTSA, RICE, etc)
- Returning to triple option in 2024 👀👀
Excited to see what Army does in the AAC.
@SSN_USF
Isn’t it “The War on I-4”?
Would LOVE to see this at Ray Jay, don’t know if the Bulls could pull it out, but we be a sweet send-off to that Mickey Mouse college…
Raise your hand if you want

Another absolutely stellar performance from the Black Knights last night across the board. Without reading or listening to any other analyses, here’s my take on our (at times) dominant / (at times) nail biting 37-29 win over UTSA
A Thread
Well known to Army fans for once holding a 240+ rush attempt streak without losing a yard.
Big man will be reborn in new gun-option. Look forward to him getting the ball in space, not b/c he’s gonna Barry Sanders his way through the D, b/c he’s gonna run downhill and angry
● RB Spotlight ●
Jakobi Buchanan - Army
• Buchanan is a TD Machine & OUTSTANDING Goal Line RB. In his career he's rushed for 1,403 yards 24 Touchdowns.
Step in front of this man at your own risk!!!!!!!
💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥
Quinn Maretzki made a career-best 12 FGs in 2023 👏👏👏
He was a perfect 4-for-4 in CIC games and saved his career-long 47-yarder for America’s Game in our 17-11 victory!
#GoArmy
That was the most Army drive we have seen all year. Gotta clean up the passing (and 4 in one drive is a little high, LOL), but (shotgun notwithstanding) that LOOKED like an Army drive, and it ate clock, and it got us 7, and it was ground and pound and hell yeah Army Football!!!
Army - UMass Debrief - 🧵
How to pull any good from a L where we were favored -10? Welcome to 2015 2.0.
The offense is still developing, the players young and inexperienced OR veteran to a completely different system. In a nutshell, do I have hope? Absolutely - let’s talk…
@AuburnBlazer
“Rivalry’s don’t mean anything if it doesn’t have CFP implications…”
Just the kind of bullshit I would expect from people who don’t understand what a rivalry really is…
1945 Army:
9-0
40.7 PPG win margin
7 wins against teams with over .500 win%
5 shutouts
6 wins over final AP ranked teams
4 wins over top 10 teams
1 win over top 5 team
“The pride of Honolulu, Hawaii wins the 2022 Army-Navy game, in double overtime!”
Great call by
@richdemarco
for the man of hour that day, Quinn Maretzki.

GREAT get for the Black Knights!

has lead the

Panthers as dual threat.
With unfortunate second place finishes in the state for ‘21 and ‘22, Davis looks to get that ring and report to Beast after graduation.
Welcome to the Brotherhood!
People who know way more than me on the topic said this was going to be a close one, specifically b/c of how the teams matched up - they were not wrong!
Gritty win, behind at significant points and needing to ultimately come back, this was a tough win and WELL EARNED!
#GoArmy
By and large:
VERY pleased w/Army D - keep it up!
Army O:
Passing better than expected
Bryson playing like a dog (as expected)
Special Team
#killingit
We HAVE GOT THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would like to take this break to apologize for some of the language I’ve been using this game.
Needless to say, I’m excited, the Rolling Rocks are cold, the Black Knights are marching, and if it’s flying it’s dying!
What can I say, I’ll do my best to limit second half f-bombs
Our final Michie Moment celebrating 100 years is the 15-0 shutout victory in 2020 as the

The one-two punch of kickers Cole Talley and Quinn Maretzki have shared incredible moments together for the Black Knights and they've always been there for each other, during the highs and the lows.

@SickosCommittee
This is Bud Grant in January of 2016 - 88 years young and about to do the ceremonial coin toss, it shorts sleeves. Field temp at that moment? -6, yes, sub-zero and I’m short sleeves. LEGEND! Rest In Peace
An anonymous donation of $250,000 to the Army Men’s Rugby Endowment has made in memory of Chief Warrant Officer 3 Stephen R. Dwyer Jr., USA, Class of 2009. Steve died in a training accident while deployed with the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment.
Converting that 4th and 4, I just feel like we’re banging on all cylinders. All the momentum, everything clicking, IDK, maybe I’m way off, just the way it feels to me
Coach Ken gets nod as TE Coach
Best guess is this is fill-in just for the bowl, not long term but who knows
I like him for a lot of jobs but (I think) he’s passing to get a break b/4 coming back somewhere as HC
Lot of teams would be lucky to get him
If we had left Christian Anderson in in the 4Q instead of going back to Tyler, WVU wouldn’t have stacked the box and we could have won the 2020 AutoZone Liberty Bowl.
I gotta say (at risk of a jinx) that Daily is running lights out right now.
Elusive when needed, lowering a shoulder when needed, extending plays.
Great effort from the QB on the ground
PUT IT IN THE BOOKS! Army comes back from a six-goal deficit to take down Lehigh!
Brigid Duffy (5) and Julia Gorajek (4) combined for nine goals to lead the comeback 👏
THE BLACK KNIGHTS ARE 10-0.
#GoArmy
I love this bulletin board material!
Hear that Army signees!?! Your in the 160’s! Your not joining strongest Service Academy! You’re a bunch of nobodies! Army never wins the CIC! Give up now!

Can’t say that the interviewers were of the highest caliber, but the interviewee? That’s the kinda man who’s haircut you could set your watch to.
