BREAKING NEWS: Army Hires Ellerson

After leading the Mustangs for the last eight years, Rich Ellerson has accepted the head coaching job at the U.S. Military Academy in West Point, NY. Ellerson guided the Mustangs in 2008 to an 8-3 record, their sixth consecutive winning season, third Great West Conference title in five years and their second berth in the NCAA Division I FCS playoffs. Cal Poly dropped a 49-35 decision to Weber State in the opening round of the playoffs at Alex G. Spanos Stadium on Nov. 29. “I could only have left for a job like Army, which is more than a great coaching opportunity. It is as important a coaching job as exists in college football,” Rich Ellerson told Cal Poly athletic department officers. “I will always consider myself part of the Mustang family.” – KSBY-TV

I will enjoy watching another D1 team run the flex bone, hopefully knocking of some teams.

You can keep a wooden stake in your trunk
On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk
To get motel parking lot, balcony crunk.

Did you see the ridiculous Cammo Unis they wore against Navy.  Even they are trying to hide from the world.
