Message: [QUOTE="gopher2, post: 4481045, member: 1390"] I think the sun started to set on KN's run when Navy started losing to Army after about 14 straight wins. In the 2016 Army-Navy game KN decided to punt on 4th and about 4, with the ball near midfield, 4 minutes left and Navy trailing 21-17. Army had been running the ball effectively in the 2nd half and predictably, they just ran out the clock. I couldn't believe KN decided to punt in that situation. It felt like he was giving Army a chance to win. That game marked the beginning of a downturn in Navy's program. They have been the least successful of the 3 service academies since then although they had a great season in 2019. KN was a great coach for Navy. It just seems he lost the fire over the last few years. But Gladchuck should have handled the dismissal with more respect and more class. I hope Navy fires him and gives KN his job. [/QUOTE]
