Not known for their recruiting prowess, the Black Knights have built their team around trying to get the most production out of players that other schools might have overlooked. This doesn't apply to the 2022 incoming class though. With the additions of DB Ray Shuman and Athlete Daniel Huff Army has changed the direction of the program. Huff came in as an overlooked running back from Indiana. Shunned by his local school Notre Dame, Huff has emerged as one of the best young playmakers in the NCAA. Not only does he lead the Knights in receiving yardage with 700 but he also has added over 200 yards rushing. On defense the prized recruit Army was able to land was defensive back Ray Shuman. Shuman was a guy thought by some to be on the radar of top ten teams in the offseason only to see his stock fall a little on signing day. Shuman put his head down and let the chip on his shoulder pave the way to an incredible training camp and start to the season. Not only has he been thrown to the fire as the team's top corner but he has arguably been the team's best defensive player through 11 games. He leads the team with 4 interceptions and 20 knockdowns while only allowing a minuscule 36.2% catches allowed. Army started off miserably losing their first five games but has turned it around thanks to the play of some of their young talent starting to get in their groove. No game was more impressive than their big win over last year's National Championship runner-up Oklahoma St. in week 11. It was a homecoming game with the season essentially on the line and the Black Knights showed that they are still a team that can play with the power schools.
