[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A naval academy student graduates and is required to do 6 years as an officer in the fleet. A 2021 grad will hit the workforce in 2027 at about 28 year of age.

A Longwood soccer player who received a full ride graduates in 2021 with no debt. Joins the Navy and becomes and officer with a four year commitment. Hits the workforce in 2025 at the age of 26.

Both graduate debt free
Both were Naval officers
One hits the workforce soon than the other

Fist off how many girls at Longwood are on a full ride and not partial?   Now that I've narrowed it down to 1 maybe 2 you might want to add in that every USNA Student Athlete pulls in a monthly $$$ on top of their free education and all the perks that go with it.   Now if i accept you premise that they are both officers upon graduation you do realize that a college graduate entering the Navy as an officer versus a USNA graduate officer are two very different people.   Finally I will acknowledge your make believe scenario that this Longwood student is out two years earlier in the workforce.  Not saying that is a benefit but you seem to think so.   I'll counter your meager benefit with a lifetime of USNA connections, networking and opportunities that your Longwood student athlete will never see, not even a fraction of.

There is no comparison at all between the two.  Your best case scenario is flawed from start to finish but you keep thinking it.   Meanwhile, USNA grads will continue to excel and benefit long after the leave the service and well into their retirement[/quote]

I’ll just have my Longwood player join the Free Masons for the alumni network
