December 9. 1994 sports the stars and stripes Page 39 d in my by Phil Jackman next to the words duty Honor and country perhaps no word is heard More often around the military academies than that of Mission. At Navy just one of every 10 applicants is chosen to undertake a regimen designed a to prepare midshipmen morally mentally and physically to be professional officers in thai tharval  Mayb its time to add the words a to win football games Ansi defeat army in particular to the stated charge of the military reservation on the Banks of the Severn River. A a a Quot for the third time in just eight years and the second time in the six year career of Jack Lengyel As athletic director Navy has dumped its head football coach in this Case George Chaump. / folks can argue Long into the night about the coach ing abilities of Chaump. And while they re at it they can think Back to the relative merits of Chaumpi a fired predecessors Elliot Uzelac and Gary Tranquill As directors of football operations. No matter where anyone stands on the subject though a couple of things become immediately apparent either the men doing the hiring and firing Are doing a Lousy Job or Lengyel and the Man who preceded him in the ads Job to Coppedge have no idea just what it is they Are asking their coaches to accomplish. Quot i a a a a it a in either Case it is the men making the ultimate decision who probably should be held to account. Chaump was 14-41 1-4 against army in his five seasons. Change just a couple of minor details that take on monumental proportions whenever the middies and cadets Square off and his record against army would be reversed / a. And he probably would be signing a contract Exten commentary Sion covering the remaining years of the Century today Uzelac a teams were 8-25 Over three years 1-2 is. Army and he was jettisoned after a season ending vie tory. Astonishing Tranquill also got five seasons went 20-34-1 and had the Edge Over army 3-2, and still was zapped. A a  a. -. A a a any objective observer after checking out the record is moved to ask what has been the Point of All these moves unfortunately a Good percentage of the answer has to do with submitting to the wishes of disgruntled alumni. Especially those brass who upon retirement have returned to the Region to live and have taken up letter writing As a Hobby. When a team school spends 13 seasons tumbling from a .545 win percentage from 1973 through 1981 to .296 since All the while softening up its schedule dramatically its time to look beyond the Man responsible for making the decisions come saturday afternoons. Quite simply Navy just does no to get the athletes to compete against the likes of Michigan Washington Syracuse Boston College Florida state Illinois Miami and Penn state As it did two decades ago. And six losses in the last eight Homecoming games against lesser lights James Madison Lehigh Delaware Yale and Bowling Green does no to Bode Well for a sudden return to glory any decade  a you be got to give up something to get something a heralded tight end Kevin Hickman was saying the other Day prior to the kids absorbing their third consecutive Field goal loss to army 22-20, in the Philadelphia House of horrors. A they done to want to recruit that All out football  Hickman estimated that this years 3-8 squad contained maybe a dozen players who could compete against anything the Mcaa had to offer. Even if its True How often does a team win when it is out manned by a 3-1 or 4-1 ratio the typical mid will Tell you Navy off its Fine Start against Noire Dame at the end of october could have beaten the Irish. Hickman forced to utilize logic for a moment admitted a yeah sooner or later the numbers begin to work against us.�?�. There was a time when Navy and old time tars will remember could and would go out and get a much needed tackle end or running Back. As Chaump has asked lately however a How Many of our kids had Bona fide scholarship offers from a Good division i program before deciding to come Here a the answer is none. So what the task amounts to is taking what sat hand working with it improving it and doing the Best you can. Navy had no offensive linemen to Start the season with and the fact it never could develop a running attack and quarterback Jim Kubiak spent weeks running for his life made things look hopeless. The inexperienced group improved in the late going and it meant a couple of wins and a close Call against army. Chaump took great pleasure viewing this something out of nothing metamorphosis a seeing All the work that went into the constant  it got to the Point where the coach could say a a we re a pretty darn Good football team right  it showed late when a decent Rice team was beaten after Navy lost its first five games by a combined 252-80 score. It was in evidence against army too.
