Desperate to snap its long losing streak against its archrival, Army has hired former Navy assistant Jeff Monken as its 37th football coach. Monken spent the past four seasons at Georgia Southern after learning the triple-option offense under Paul Johnson during stints with the Midshipmen and Georgia Tech. He posted a 38-16 record at Georgia Southern and helped guide the program's transition to the Football Bowl Subdivision from the Football Championship Subdivision ranks. "I am honored and humbled by their trust in me to lead the West Point football program," Monken said. "More than anyone else, I want to thank the men and women who have served and continue to serve our nation in the United States Army. I am proud to be your head football coach. I am anxious to get started." Read more http://espn.go.com/college-football...ire-jeff-monken-georgia-southern-eagles-coach
