Jimmy Hoffa Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 They were always held in high esteem culturally and athletically. But not being championship contenders of late has diminished their influence athletically. The USC situation is similar. The public has a shorter attention span than ever. 5 star recruits are 18 years old and they all want to play for Georgia and Alabama.

A good broadcast window against Ohio State should draw eyeballs, I watched it too. The bloom is off a lot of the old roses. Army may have been among the most storied football programs of them all but nobody cares any more. College football players are essentially free agents now and they're calling the shots.
