Name reverting back to Cadets

Per this tweet by Army football beat reporter Sal Interdonato, West Point will reverse the 1999 name change and go back to calling their athletic teams the Cadets. DarkAudit (talk) 15:05, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Or not. See Rebrand section below. So it goes. DarkAudit (talk) 13:27, 14 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Rebrand

Per their press release, the athletics program is now known as "Army West Point." However, the nicknames "Black Knights," "Cadets," and "The Corps" it looks like they will be used interchagably. What say ye, Wikipedians? Tom Danson (talk) 07:03, 14 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

NFL draft ?

Is there any arrangement for elite Army players to be drafted by the NFL ? Would they have to wait for their agreed army service to end before they could join the NFL, play part-time, or some other arrangement ? I've heard of one player who did the first option, served in Vietnam before joining the NFL... would be good to have this issue discussed in the article. I assume the same applies to Navy and Air Force : the three appear to be the only colleges not normally in the NFL draft ? Rcbutcher (talk) 09:34, 26 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can privates and NCOs represent Army ?

Can enlisted men play for Army, or just officer trainees ? If not why not ? Rcbutcher (talk) 08:17, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
