i start in 1947, post ww2 because a lot of programs stopped playing "big time" cfb, plus recruiting became a bit different as far as pay, etc. also, army and nd teams from ww2 (also aTm) where full of guys trying to get out of going to war and had their rosters stocked with draft dodgers, aTm tried to curb this by putting out inferior officers with brief training programs. "military college" during the war years is always associated with entitled, connected kids who could get out of the war or put it off and they all stockpiled the talent from around the country. theres nothing patriotic about army and its bull shite draft dodging nattys from the 40s.


I don't even know where to begin with the idiocy of this post

Apparently you are ignorant of the fact that enrolling in a college ROTC program allowed males to avoid being drafted into the military from 1940 to 1973.

Think Bill Clinton (and Rick Perry).
