Thanks for linking BC - I was kind of searching around over the weekend. Those are indeed badass.  Holy smokes!

I have lots of Sprint Football swag and his last Nike jersey hangs in his empty room.  They switched to UnderArmor last year. They just get the gold helmets; nothing that cool.  The tradition is they play Army in these and then the bowl game.

BTW, he just went through service selection* and will commission as a Second Lieutenant in the Marine Corps (ground). Not seeing the EG&A on those unis - one of these years they need to go all out with that. They could have done the iconic Iwo Jima photo for the linebackers or something. ha ha He was nearly on a submarine (not by choice) and it's good to see the silent service represented on a helmet.

Go Navy! Beat Army!!

Man, Navy came so close this year to having a once in a generation season but they'll finish in their home stadium against rando ACC team.

For those interested, a link to Service Selections for the senior "big boy" Midshipmen (lots of USMC): http://www.navysports.com/sports/m-footb...15aah.html

Vis a vis his Sprint mates, I haven't seen anything official but the unofficial count (out of 17) based on his sigh of relief for getting what he wanted phone call is 7 Special Forces (SEAL), 2 Explosive Ordinance Device Disposal, 3 Marines (2 air, 1 ground), and the rest Navy Pilot.  He said the 7 SEALS are the most out of any sports team in the Brigade.  JT Junior put in for an assignment coaching the DBs next year, so now I can rip their strategy straight to his face. He has a good chance with so many SEALS coming from his team. They start right away after graduation. Usually it is 80-90 percent Marine and they can easily delay The Basic School until November, which he wants to do.
