What amazes me is the service academy’s still run it with good success for the most part. The problem they can not just go out
and recruit just any Jimmy or Joe. Those recruits require very high standered,s. They must have a good academic record. Must have
leadership, and being good athletes. Then serve 5 year military commitment. But even so they do very well across the board against
Some very good schools, running the wishbone with some difference in it.

I was a sophomore when we switched to the Bone. What great memories that change created.

The video is part of like a 7 part series, the last one iirc talks about the service academies running it.
