“31-7 Navy...let me guess, Navy’s Defense is made up mostly of Middies
that are going Marine option...lol”

About a dozen graduating senior football players are going Marines - 1 Marine Corps Air, the Rest Marine Corps Ground. QB Malcolm Perry is going Marine Corps Ground.

15% - 20% of Naval Academy graduates are commissioned in the Marines at graduation, the exact number depending on the needs of the Corps. There are always more requesting Marines than who receive that commission.

I was almost one of them...I strongly considered attending Annapolis while I was in. Thanks for the info on the Football team members going to the Marines.
