I knew Charlie when he took Utah State University three years ago to their first Big West Championship in 15 years and their first bowl game in 32 years which was also their first bowl victory in history. Navy hired Coach Weatherbie anticipating similar results.&nbsp;</P> <P>The <U>Washington Post</U> wrote, "Coach Weatherbie has earned the undying love of his players frm the very start, sending his assistants to class with them so that the staff woul be certain to understand jus what kind of pressures the players would endure off the field."&nbsp;The <U>Baltimore Sun</U> added, "Coch Weatherbie fired up the whole academy. His impact was so positive, he received a standing ovation walking through the dining hall." But what about the lack of size? Coach Weatherbie has mplanted the following popular slogan into every midshipman's brain: "It's not the size of the dog that matters but the size of the fight of the dog."&nbsp;</P> <P>Last year Navy finished with a 5-6 record which was their best since 1990. The Midhsipmen went from 102nd in scoring defense to 17th in the nation;from 107th inrushing offense to 7th in the nation and they were 18th naionally in total defense. Navy set seven school records in 1995 and had a second team All-America in junior cornerback Sean Anrews who did not even get into a game the previous year. Five opponents were held to under 100 yards rushing.&nbsp;</P> <P>Will Navy's rich heritage be revived? They have had 29 first team All-America's, 17 National Football Foundaton &amp; Hall of Fame Inductees, 4 Maxwell Trophy Winners and were National Football Champions in 1926. They rank 26th among Division I schools with 554 victories and a winning percentage of .556which includes 264 shutouts. However, times have been tougher in recent years. It has been 15 years since Navy has won the Commander in Chief's Trophy (Navy must beat boh Army and Air Force in the same year). They have only beaten Army and Air Frce once in the last five years previous to 1996.&nbsp;</P> <P>Scott Runyon, receivers coach, had his office down the hall. It was great seeing Scott agai. He was ou 1981 National Bigger Faster Stronger Athlete of the Year. Right outside the locker room is a synthetic turf practice field and there practicing was the famous Naval Academy Band which was originally formed in 1852. Just beyond this field is the main practice field which uses natural turf. As we continued the tour, we next came to Bancroft Haf*$v윅 ˯fq>)s̿M5l}8\g5Ꮜ߳,W?Gnª`z)c8O'ZƁ,v 4.W+e'Gd
