But I respect the hell what they can accomplish in football given their limitations.
1. In order to play you must sign a commitment to be in the airforce.
2. There is no redshirt opportunity so no waiting on kids to grow.
3. Height and weight restrictions put their lines in a tough spot every game.
Despite these issues airforce fields a winner most years in recent memory.
I do hate Air Force and Troy Calhoun...

...and to their credit, whenever they have a poop year or two, they don't wallow for 15+ years (and counting) to find a way to get back to 9-10 wins the following year.

I very much respect Air Force and the way their football program seems to make bowl games every year. Calhoun does a nice job coaching the kids up. He really knows the system and is able to utilize all the right players. Great model of consistency for a non-Power Five school, if you ask me.

Ok coach, but a dick as a person. And for being something of a figure head at a service academy, VERY questionable ethics.

You can tell how big a person is by what it takes to discourage him/her.
Hey guys. USU fan here. I'm home alone, bored, and there isn't much happening on USUFans.com, so I thought I'd come visit my second favorite MWC team.
I respect the Academy.
I respect the cadets.
Calhoun is a giant steamy turd.
Happy New Year!
