Back on March 4th, GBK Publisher Charles Grevious started a thread on The 12th Knight, ‘Jackpot: Army’s 2017 Recruiting Class’.

Which in essence recognized head coach Jeff Monken and his staff’s solid job of recruiting. One of the main factors in that acknowledgement was that this class, which is made up of players currently at the USMAPS and those entering the academy direct will be making their way to West Point this summer with little fall off relative to retention. Meaning, we have little doubt that the aforementioned group will remain intact upon their arrival this summer and any late college recruiting poachers will try and pluck this solidly committed group away from their pledge.

As such, we are stepping out of typical comfort zone of reporting on the incoming frosh class at such an early date in the on-boarding cycle.
