A Few Notes from the Football Team

Danny Wild has some photos up from Spring practice, if you haven't visited Danny's Wildlife blog, check it out.

Danny's photography gives him access to the team, so while players' medical status are always unofficial until they come full term, I am encouraged by the latest Army personnel rumor:

"Football-related, I heard Army linebacker Andrew Rodriguez may return for 2011 and may also have a shot at being the first captain of the Corps — pretty exciting on both fronts."

Sal's take on A-Rod estimates Rodriguez's 2011 return at a 50/50 probability.

"From everything I’ve heard, there’s probably less than a 50 percent chance that Rodriguez plays in the fall.

Rodriguez, a top student, is a potential candidate to be first captain of the Corps of Cadets for the 2011-12 school year.

If he doesn’t play football, there’s a good chance that Rodriguez could stay with the team as a student coach."

You can follow Danny Wild's photography work on his flickr site:

His collection of Army football football photos on flickr can be found here.


It's been a slow time for football news, so to catch up on some of the changes from 2010 to 2011 Phil Steele has lists of the college football coaching changes, and the 2011 conference alignment.


I don't know if I posted the post spring game interview before, but here is a talk with Steve Erzinger courtesy of GoArmySports.com.
